Damien Delaney reckons the return of Wilfried Zaha can give the Eagles a fresh cutting edge.

The 21-year-old was in starting line-up against Burnley on Saturday after returning to the club from Manchester United on loan.

Zaha was unable to break the deadlock in a 0-0 stalemate at Selhurst Park, but Delaney believes it is only a matter of time before he starts winning games for Palace.

I was delighted when he re-signed because he can only add to the team. He’s really got that x-factor,” Delaney said.

“That is what you are looking for and if that chance goes in in the first-half then that is what he is in the team for.

"He’s there to get or make a goal and then it’s up to the rest of us dogs to see it out and that is what we are looking for.”
