Left Midfielder – Jeffrey Schlupp

This may be a surprising selection for some, but Schlupp is no joke. At Leicester, the 24-year-old Ghanaian saw his playing time drop significantly during their title run. He joined Crystal Palace during this month’s Transfer Window and I believe will help significantly. He can play left-back or left-mid and provides amazing pace down the flanks. He should be able to help Palace create some chances, while also being able to gain tons of playing time under Allardyce.
