Crystal Palace have become one of the best teams in England under Oliver Glasner, and that’s not an exaggeration.
Indeed, the Eagles won the FA Cup last year, while, so far this season, they’re unbeaten in the Premier League.
Palace have gone from strength to strength in recent times, and many players have earned huge plaudits.
Adam Wharton has been hailed, while Jean-Philippe Mateta has earned big praise in recent times too.
Now, speaking on TalkSPORT, Paul Parker has singled out another Palace player for praise, stating that Chris Richards has looked nothing short of incredible in recent times.
Paul Parker hails Chris Richards
Parker was discussing Palace’s change in fortunes since Glasner took over.
The pundit had plenty of good words to say about this team, but, most notably, he said that Chris Richards has improved massively.
Parker noted that the £9m man’s confidence has gone through the roof as of late, and Palace fans recently praised Richards for his solid showing over the weekend.
“And the man for me who has been incredible, since the change of manager, Chris Richards, the change of manager has just lifted him up there. He is so confident,” Parker said.
Troy Deeney praises Ismaila Sarr
Richards wasn’t the only Palace player to get a special mention during this conversation.
Indeed, shortly after this comment, Troy Deeney would jump in and share his admiration for Ismaila Sarr.
“But again, sorry to dive in on that, but you look at what they’ve recruited. They got Isma Sarr, who was naturally a winger, but what’s he known for? Just driving forward, rolling him behind,” Deeney said.
“So it took him a while to get in that 10. And then now they’ve done it, he’s just, he’s flourishing.”
It’s been a long time since the London club had this many players receiving this many plaudits from mainstream pundits and broadcasters, and this all feeds into why it is indeed such an exciting time to be a Palace supporter.
