rip to his former club Newcastle, Pardew invited Jones to give his current charges a pep talk on Thursday. If they cant take on board his comments, then were in trouble.

Englands rugby Grand Slam-winning coach Eddie Jones has given Crystal Palace a motivational talk as they build up to an FA Cup final season finale. Before facing Manchester United in the cup final at Wembley on May 21, Alan Pardews squad have three Premier League matches to get through.Although now unlikely, the Eagles still face the mathematical possibility of relegation and ahead of Saturdays trip to his former club Newcastle, Pardew invited Jones to give his current charges a pep talk on Thursday. If they cant take on board his comments, then were in trouble. Alan Pardew Were still not mathematically safe in the Premier League, so we still have work to do, which is why I asked Eddie Jones to come in, and he had a few words with the team about complacency and about what teams do, said Pardew.Jones was appointed England rugby head coach following the sides dismal early exit from the World Cup and inspired them a few months later to win the Six Nations tournament, clinching their first Grand Slam since 2003 in the process. Pardew, whose side beat Watford 2-1 in Sundays FA Cup semi-final, added: Hes been involved in World Cups with other nations, is a multi-cultural personality, someone who is engaging. If they cant take on board his comments then were in trouble.We share a couple of professional friends. Jeremy Snape [Palace sports psychologist] is one of those, and Eddie asked me about the England rugby team.Weve been quite close since hes been here, and a lot of the views he has on trying to get more from individual players and the group run parallel with my own. Trying to get the best out of his ideas is nice for me. It was nice to have him here: good timing, what with the result we had [defeating Watford]. Jones is happy to offer pointers to Palace The Palace boss revealed Jones visit stemmed from a belief his players would benefit from hearing a new voice, with the talk coming on the same day Teddy Sheringham spoke to the clubs academy coaches and Pardew believes the use of those speakers helps to stimulate his squad.Ive always encouraged other coaches and managers to be involved, with comments from them, Pardew said. The most important point [Jones made] was that great teams can get to finals, but great teams only win finals if theyre great all the time. We have to be great this Saturday. That was the main key point I took from him.We cant turn up at Newcastle and let our standards down from Sunday otherwise were doing a disservice to our fans and ourselves. Hes given a lot of examples of how communication between the team and the coaches is important. The players just absorbed it. Its nice to hear it from somebody from a different genre, a different field, carrying the weight he does. Its a position that only great coaches and managers have. Bakary Sako (l), Jason Puncheon and Mile Jedinak (r) of Crystal Palace celebrate victory over Watford I worked it out that [France international] Yohan Cabaye will get a two-week holiday this year. Thats a long time to stimulate a footballer. Same with [my] Wales [internationals at Euro 2016]. Youve got to stimulate players and staff to try and improve yourself.Victory for Palace at St James Park would edge Newcastle even closer to relegation, just 17 months after Pardew left to join Palace at a time when Newcastle appeared reasonably strong. For all that he was an unpopular figure in the north-east, the manager insists he is desperate to see Newcastle survive, and believes they are an improving team again under Rafael Benitez. Alan Pardew wants his players to be up for the Newcastle game Theyre a much stronger team, said Pardew, who will monitor Wilfried Zaha before selecting his starting XI because of a leg injury the winger is carrying.Rafa is a very experienced manager who has managed at the top of the game, and hes got them in a much better place to win this game, and that worries me because my job is to win this game.The club is a beast when its going well, but it can be equally as destructive when things arent going well. At the moment, things are going well, so its a big bear well have to fight. Also See: Pardew: I hope Newcastle survive Wickham: I need to be better Palace fixtures Get a ￡10 free bet!

Test captain Cook was watching from home when an Eoin Morgan-skippered side was beaten in heartbreaking fashion by the West Indies.Ben Stokes conceded four successive sixes to Carlos Brathwaite to start the final over and a four-wicket defeat meant England ended the tournament as gallant runners-up. Its been a really good 18 months for England cricket as a whole with some fantastic results in all formats, Cook told Sky Sports News HQ.With the talent and the resources weve got we should be competing in all three areas, and we are doing that.Credit goes to everyone behind the scenes, the coaches and of course Andrew Strauss who has come in and done what he has done.The danger is now not to rest, we have to keep pushing forward with some massive cricket coming up. Weve got to keep driving English cricket forward as a whole. It would have been great to have that trophy as another step towards itThey deserve all the credit for getting to that final, and the way they played to do that, but because its such a hard tournament to win, you have to ttake that opportunity.dddddddddddd Cook felt for Ben Stokes after his implosion at the end of the World Twenty20 final Cook also added his support for Stokes, who was left in tears after Brathwaites incredible four-ball assault.I dont think I have ever felt as sorry for a bowler than I did for Ben at the end, but thats Twenty20 cricket for you - you can win it or lose it in an over. It was some unbelievable hitting, he added.I do feel for Ben but hes the type of character you want with you in the trenches. We should be talking about how good the hitting was rather than him having a stinker.Thats how the game has changed these last couple of years. Guys are coming in, getting 30 off 10 balls and hitting the ball a mile. Also See: County build-up LIVE! Stokes will bounce back Windies win thrilling final England T20 ratings ' ' '
