Ghana international Jeffery Schlupp believes his Crystal Palace outfit deserve the three points against West Ham United.
The Eagles have had a season turn around under Hodgson, who rejoined the team after the international break in March.
Crystal Palace recorded a 4-3 win at Selhurst Park over West Ham United on Saturday to stay comfortable on the table.
After the game, Schlupp, who registered his name on the scoresheet hailed his outfit performance against West Ham United, saying they deserve the three points.
“It was crazy. It was a weird game, because we actually felt like we dominated the game to be honest, and you find yourself scrambling in the last five minutes!
“Personally [I thought], as a team, we played really well and dominated the game. You know they’re going to be a threat from set-pieces so we knew what we had to deal with, but I feel like we deserved the three points. It was a good performance.
“You can tell there’s some freedom in there. The coaching staff want us to express ourselves. We’ve got a lot of flair and pace, and we’re really using that. We’re frightening teams – and we want to keep that going.
“Every time I play I want to use my attributes. I think that’s dragging the ball, using my pace, getting in the pockets and turning and running at the defence. I feel with the boys, like Cheick [Doucouré], at the back, we’ve got the patience to build through the back and onto the midfield and get me and Ebs [Eze] in the pockets.
“Once we get turned and running at the defence, I don’t think any defence in the Prem wants to see that! We’re doing that well at the moment, playing with lots of confidence, and we want to keep that going.” He told Palace TV.
West Ham took an early lead against Crystal Palace through Tomas Soucek's goal. However, Palace made a stunning comeback with three goals in 15 minutes, courtesy of Jordan Ayew, Wilfried Zaha, and Jeffrey Schlupp who scored in the 15th, 20th, and 30th minutes respectively.
Michail Antonio scored for West Ham before the break to reduce the deficit. In the second half, Eberechi Eze converted a penalty to restore Palace's two-goal lead, but Nayef Aguerd scored another consolation goal to bring West Ham back into the game but ended up on the losing side.
