Garth Crooks raves about Crystal Palace defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Crystal Palace started their 2018-19 Premier League campaign on a positive note after winning 2-0 against newcomers Fulham at Craven Cottage on Saturday.

Wilfried Zaha grabbed the headline with a late winner for Palace but one player who really stepped up and duly impressed was youngster Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

The 20-year-old right back is a product of the club’s youth academy, and made his debut for Roy Hodgson’s team last season. He made seven Premier League appearances last season, and Hodgson has full confidence in the youngster’s ability.

Former Tottenham player and now a popular BBC pundit, Garth Crooks, has been left impressed by Wan-Bissaka’s display against the Cottagers.
