Neil Warnock on Dwight Gayle

Friday 04/11/16

And Gayle is a player Warnock knows well from his Crystal Palace days. Here’s what he had to say about the in-form forward...

Neil Warnock: "He’s the best finisher I’ve ever had, you just couldn’t find a system week in week out. He always wanted to be loved, Rafa has loved him. In the box he comes alive and would get in anybody’s team in the 18 yard box, but Rafa has put other things to his game, he looks far more complete player. The good news they only have 11 and we have to look after ourselves, we have good players. We now they’ve brushed aside most teams in the last few weeks, but with the crowd behind them it will be a hectic start and we’ll have to defend from the first minute. But you relish the challenge. No disrespect to some of the teams, I don’t think there’s a better scenario. My first game back with Palace was there and we got a 3-3 draw, you have to relish it and hope you perform at best of ability. If you have any weaknesses you’ll get punished."
