Although Ayew's future remains a subject of transfer speculation, Glasner was left impressed with the veteran forward's ability. Ayew also served the assist for his side's third.
"Also, the second one, a strike from Dean [Henderson, with the assist], and how Jordan takes the ball, the technical ability is amazing, and then the finish as well," he told Crystal Palace TV.
"And then I really enjoyed Asher: 18 years [old], he's been with us for three days. He did a great finish, so it was a very nice goal."
