Crystal Palace goalkeeper Sam Johnstone is looking forward to the fresh input of new boss Oliver Glasner but insists it won't be possible to work any harder than they did under Roy Hodgson.

Johnstone, who was recalled in goal for Monday's draw at Everton, hopes to keep his place in Glasner's first game in charge against Burnley on Saturday.

'It's sad to see Roy leave and the way it happened but we're excited to see a new manager come in,' said Johnstone.

'He (Glasner) will be in this week and we are all excited for the new direction which will bring new ideas.

'He will put his own print on the team and hopefully that can take us up the table.

'The only thing that will change is he will give us new ideas to freshen us up. We go out to train every day to give 100 percent, we go out every game to give 100 percent which we will carry on doing.

'It will just be a case of some different ideas, a different way of playing and everyone is up for that.

'That is the only change really because as professional athletes, footballers, we go out every day and give 100 percent.'

Hodgson, 76, stepped down on Monday having fallen ill in training last week amidst speculation over his future.

Johnstone paid tribute to his former manager. 'He has been massively important. The club has been in the Premier League for 10 years and Roy has been manager for four or five years of them,' he added.

'He's a great person, first and foremost, and a great manager so obviously it was tough but we are all glad to see he is well.

'The focus at Everton was to get on with the game and try to get a result for him, for Crystal Palace, the fans and the new manager.'
