Crystal Palace midfielder James McArthur heaps praise on Wilfried Zaha for his level of consistency in helping to drag the club out of the relegation zone.

James McArthur has admitted that he would "hate to play against" Crystal Palace teammate Wilfried Zaha on current form following another inspired display from the winger.

Zaha created both goals for the Eagles as they produced a late comeback to beat Watford 2-1 on Tuesday night, three days on from winning a couple of penalties in the 2-2 draw with Bournemouth.

The 25-year-old has played a vital role in Palace's resurgence since returning to peak fitness, having missed two months of the season through injury, and McArthur has been particularly impressed by the levels of consistency on show.

"He is an outstanding player. A great talent. With younger talent, sometimes you get inconsistency," he told reporters. "With Wilfried, his consistency levels are remarkable.

"He is playing well week in, week out and creating goals and scoring. I would hate to play against him."

Palace's victory over Watford lifted them out of the relegation zone for the first time since this season.
