Crystal Palace midfielder Wharton happy involved for Forest draw

Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton was happy to be involved for their 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest.

Wharton impressed on the day.

He said, “It's really good at the moment. [I'm getting] lots of minutes, more than I thought I would coming in, but I'm really enjoying it. I just want to play football, and that's what I'm doing at the moment.

“I think every kid growing up wants to play in the Premier League, the best league in the world. I'm just really grateful to be able to be in this position, and hopefully I can keep playing and helping the team.

“[I'm trying to] just work on everything. I'm still young, I've got plenty of things to work on. I'm still learning the game, a new league and things like that, just working every day in training, on the ball, off the ball, positioning, when to press, when to maybe sit off – all the little details that make a big difference."
