Every word Patrick Vieira said on Burnley, Wilfried Zaha, Conor Gallagher's future and more

Yes, that is something we wanted. Before Watford, we had a couple of games where we had a good performance but we didn’t get the result we wanted to. So with the Watford game I was really pleased - the performance was there and we won the game so it was a real positive for us.

The challenge is for Wilfried and for the team to be consistent in their performances. There's no doubt about the quality and what he can do but when he's like that it's good for the team. The challenge for us is about being consistent and repeating those performances. When we managed to play like that we created chances, we scored goals and managed to win the game. It's important for us to keep challenging ourselves and keep consistency.

Wilfried is at home at Palace, he's been really good for the club and I strongly believe he has a lot to give. Since he came back from AFCON he has wanted to take the team forward, and the team have responded well to him. What's important to me is the work ethic he had out of possession. He worked well with other players around and that’s what I want from him because it makes the team stronger. When we are stronger, he can express his talent and we know what he can do.

We honestly didn't speak about it. We know that we will have him for the year and then we never know what can happen. Conor, the way he's playing, he is really happy at our football club, he knows how important he is for the team and he is enjoying his game. For a player like that, what is important is to keep playing week after week which will allow him to improve. I think we give him the support that you need for him to be on the field to express his talent.

They are in a really good period. They won the last two games without conceding a goal.
