Olise not at his best yet – Crystal Palace’s Vieira

Despite finding the net against the Foxes, the Eagles’ handler claims the youngster still has a lot to do to improve

Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira is delighted with Michael Olise’s performance in the 2-2 draw against Crystal Palace on Sunday, but feels he has a lot to do to improve.
