Mohammed Kudus' performance against Crystal Palace showed improvement, with an 8.0 FotMob match rating and an assist for Archie Gray's opener. He had 11 touches in the opposition box and completed 50 of 55 passes. Tottenham boss Roberto De Zerbi had previously praised Kudus' display against Chelsea. Kudus' passing was largely accurate and he created three chances.
Kudus has been building rhythm since returning from a hamstring injury in August. He was a constant threat for the Palace defence, who often doubled up on him. WhoScored rated Kudus 7.91/10 for the match. He also attempted nine dribbles, completing four.
Kudus had a big chance to seal his best performance since returning from injury but fluffed it, firing wide after a cross from Luca Williams-Barnett. Despite this, the early signs suggest Kudus is steadily getting back to his best form. De Zerbi highlighted Kudus as a match-winner against Chelsea alongside Mathys Tel.

Source context
The numbers behind Mohammed Kudus’ performance against Crystal Palace show the Tottenham winger is edging closer to his best. Mohammed Kudus missed most of the year through a hamstring injury and only made his return for Spurs in August. Since then, however, the winger has been building rhythm and improving with each passing game. Tottenham boss Roberto De Zerbi was pleased with Kudus’ display against Chelsea, describing the Ghanaian as one of the match-winners. He said: “But Mathys Tel played very well. I think we won the game with two wingers, Kudus and Mathys, they made the difference. Also Micky van de Ven, because he was unbelievable with the ball.
