Schlupp, from Ghana, explains the reason for his form in the English Premier League

Jeffrey Schlupp, an elite man at Crystal Palace, thinks his good performance as such is due to the experiences of his football career.

With four goals in the Premier League this season, the midfielder, who can also play in defense or attack, ranks third best scorer in the Eagles, just behind Luka Milivojevic and Wilfred Zaha.

Abdul Majeed Waris, 26, said the Ghanaians would score the most points in the top five European leagues, while being the Ghanaian with the highest score in the top four.

"I'm really trying to add goals to my game lately," said Schlupp, as stated on his club's official website.

"Because I went from left back to left back, I'm trying to get more because I'm more advanced.

"But that was not a big hit for me because playing in the left rear and left back can be pretty similar."

After growing up in the youth ranks of Leicester City, Schlupp went on loan to Brentford on loan in 2010-11 before returning for a six-season period with The Foxes, which he left for Palace in 2017.

"The goals could, however, be achieved for an older and clearer reason," the Ghanaian international explained.

"I was an attacker when I was younger.

"In Leicester, I was on loan to Brentford, where I scored six goals. Upon my return to Leicester, I managed a hat trick during my debut! But I went on tour with the team [to Sweden] and played a lot back left and played very well.

"The gaffer, Sven-Goran Eriksson, was playing me there. So in this match where I scored a hat trick during my league debut, I then played the last 10 minutes of the game on the left-back! I would not say that attacking is really easy for me, but I really feel like doing it because I'm used to it when I was younger. "

Schlupp has played 22 league matches involving 10 starts for Palace so far this season.
