(Reuters) - Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha has been the target of persistent fouling this season and needs more protection from referees, manager Sam Allardyce has said ahead of Sunday's crucial Premier League game against Hull City.

"We're supposed to be improving the game for our more skilful players... but persistent fouling seems to be something you can get away with," Allardyce told British media.
