Kelly explains return to right-back position

Speaking with Premier League Productions this week, Martin Kelly discussed his recently enforced switch from centre-back to right-back, a position he has occupied at various points in his career.

With Palace playing on the back of two wins in which they kept two clean sheets with Kelly at the right of defence, the 29-year-old explained how he and the team have felt in recent matches.

He commented on the versatility of the Eagles’ squad, saying: “I’ve been happy to help the team with the wins. It’s been good for me to come in - I think it’s been a couple of seasons since I played fullback.
