Crystal Palace attacker Jeffrey Schlupp admits Wilfried Zaha is thriving on the jeers of opposition fans.

Both players struck in the victory at Burnley on Saturday.

"He comes in for some stick from the opposition fans, but I really think he enjoys getting stick," Schlupp said.

"He thrives on it, it raises his game and it backfires on the fans dishing it out."

Palace centre back James Tomkins, commanding in a defence that refused to be breached under a barrage of Burnley crosses, agreed.

"He can get a goal out of nothing," Tomkins said. "Teams and fans are always going to get on his back, but he answers that in the way he knows how."
