Crystal Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson admits his playing return brings mixed emotions.
Henderson was back for their 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest with Sam Johnstone out for the season due to an elbow injury. It also means Johnstone is out of England's Euros squad.
Henderson said: “Obviously, firstly, I'm devastated for my mate Sam.
“For me, personally, it's nice to be back out there. Obviously that's where I want to be. I've had a really difficult year – everyone knows that – through injuries, getting going, not quite getting going… I just want to play football and enjoy it, with a smile on my face.
“Any point away in the Premier League is obviously a good point. I thought we maybe deserved more – maybe if that [last-minute corner] goes [off the] post and in on another day – but I thought the lads played really well in spells.
“We've just got to get that consistency throughout the game. We're showing good signs of improvement.
“[We wanted] to get the next goal and put the game to bed, but obviously we couldn't do that. We missed some chances, they hit us with the sucker punch, and I thought we played some really good stuff after that. It was a bit of basketball – it went either way at the end – but we did alright."
On new manager Oliver Glasner, Henderson also told the club's website: “I think we're showing signs of improvement weekly, so we've just got to keep doing that, keep trusting the gaffer's messages, and I believe we'll do well."
