Campbell: 'Warnock team talk inspired win'

Crystal Palace striker Fraizer Campbell has revealed that Neil Warnock's instructions at half time inspired his side's 2-0 win over Leicester City.

Goals from Campbell and Mile Jedinak in the second half secured a first home win of the season for the Eagles at Selhurst Park.

"At half time, I held my hands up because I was poor in the first half," Campbell told the London Evening Standard.

"The manager said I needed to be more lively and get myself running about, so that is what I did in the second half. I put myself about a bit more and it helps the lads behind me if I am closing people down quicker. That really caused them problems.

"We knew it was going to be cagey because Leicester came off the back of a great win against Manchester United. But we came out second half and had a real go at them."

Palace sit ninth in the table following the win.
