"It’s been a while – a very long time since I’ve gotten a trophy as well!" Ayew said, speaking to Palace TV. "I’d just like to thank everyone – the fans, the club and the staff – for supporting me since Roy [Hodgson] has come in.
"He’s been really good to me and putting me into positions where I can express myself and feel more comfortable. He gives me the freedom to express myself and as a player that’s all you can ask for.
"Every game I try to tell myself that I need to be efficient and make something happen. At the moment, things are going well. It's still the start of the season, there are still a lot of games to go, and hopefully, it'll continue."
The forward has been named in Chris Hughton's squad for the upcoming 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Central African Republic on Thursday, September 7.
