Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha set for Chelsea return with star man fully fit and training hard once again
Roy Hodgson hoping Ivory Coast winger turns out to be his hero with Palace yet to win a game or score this season
CRYSTAL PALACE have received a huge boost after Wilfried Zaha made a triumphant return to training.
The 24-year-old is yet to feature since opening day after picking up a knee injury.
In that time, Palace have sacked Frank de Boer and hired Roy Hodgson as his replacement.
But the Eagles are still yet to win a single game and haven’t even managed to find the back of the net.
Things don’t get any easier when they take on champions Chelsea after the international break.
However, Hodgson will surely be delighted to have Zaha available again as he looks to cause an upset.
Palace recorded a shock 2-1 win at Stamford Bridge last season and will be hoping Zaha can inspire them to victory once again.
The Ivory Coast international looked sharp as he practised his sprints and shooting at training today.
And Zaha will also now be expected to provide the goals following an injury setback for Christian Benteke.
Palace don’t have any other strikers available and must now face a relegation battle without a main outlet.
