Crystal Palace defender Joachim Andersen has been speaking ahead of the match against Fulham and he shared what he finds most special about the Eagles.
The defender will be playing against his former club in the game later today.
So, what does Andersen find so special about Crystal Palace? Let’s take a look…
What’s the story?
With Joachim Andersen having played for both sides, it is no shock to see Crystal Palace talk to him ahead of the game today.
He was asked a lot by the Crystal Palace media team but what was great to hear is him talking about what he finds special about the Eagles.
Speaking to the club, the defender said: “The most special thing is our atmosphere. The fans are unbelievable. Selhurst Park has a top atmosphere and it’s difficult for opponents to visit us. The fans help us a lot in tough periods as well, so it’s a special feeling [playing in front of them].”
Palace fans will no doubt love hearing this from the Danish international and he has been on top form this season.
Joachim Andersen is a fan favourite
The £40million-valued defender is no doubt a fan favourite at the club and he has been loved ever since he joined for his top performances.
Not only is Andersen good at defending but he is also massively important to the way the Eagles attack with his progressive passing.
He has been crucial this season and his goal against Brentford in the 1-1 draw was vital in a match where we lacked an attacking spark.
These latest comments about the fan base will have no doubt made the supporters love him even more. Hopefully he makes a good impact today against his former side.
It is great to hear these comments and it is also a rallying call to the fans to be loud and proud for the game later today.
The match against Fulham is definitely a big one. If the Eagles want to challenge the top half then we need to win the game.
