Crystal Palace manager, Roy Hodgson has confirmed that forward, Wilfried Zaha, will be available for selection when his side take on Chelsea in Sunday\u2019s Premier League fixture at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n

Zaha suffered a shoulder injury in Palace\u2019s 2-2 draw against Arsenal last weekend in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

The Ivory Coast international missed his side\u2019s 1-0 defeat to Middlesbrough in the Carabao Cup encounter played on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cZaha was fine the last time I saw him,\u201d Evening Standard quoted Hodgson as saying at pre-match.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe took a bang on the shoulder at the weekend which will be fine by the Chelsea game. It would have been difficult to play him [against Middlesbrough] with that knock anyway, but I spoke to him yesterday and he said he was fine.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hodgson added, \u201cThe club will do everything they can to support him [over the abuse]. I do not think there are many people out there, perhaps the odd social media troll who knows no better, who believes that racially abusing people or threatening people is the right way to go.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is fairly obviously that, at my stage of life, I do not have any sympathy for people who use these platforms to abuse other people. The club will do everything they can to help him get through the situation.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
