The Everton winger was busy on Twitter after Sunday’s games involving his own side, Crystal Palace and Tottenham Hotspur.

Everton’s Yannick Bolasie believes Crystal Palace were unlucky in defeat against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.

Palace (11) registered almost as many shots as Tottenham (12) at Wembley, and one more (3) on target.

But Roy Hodgson’s side succumbed to a 1-0 loss nevertheless, courtesy of Son Heung-min’s second half strike – and Pablo Gazzaniga’s heroics in the Tottenham goal.

Writing on Twitter yesterday evening, Bolasie, who left Palace for Everton last summer, wrote: “Palace were defiantly [sic] unlucky today crazy game football is [shrugging man emoji]”.

Bolasie is on the way back from a serious knee injury, which has seen him miss all but four months of his Everton career.

And just as Toffees supporters will be keen to have the winger back in action after their own poor start to the new season, Palace fans – it seems – would love to have him back at Selhurst Park.

Here’s how they reacted to Bolasie’s tweet:

Not all Palace supporters were bowled over, however, with one keen to draw attention to Bolasie’s previous tweet in the aftermath of Everton’s 3-2 win against Watford.
