Crystal Palace captain Dean Henderson has asked fans to “park the negativity” after a slow start to the season.

The 29-year-old goalkeeper, who is currently injured, signed a new contract until 2030 this week.

“When we talk about that day out at Wembley Stadium for the FA Cup, obviously the lads were outstanding to a man but the supporters were incredible as well,” he said.

“I don’t think you will ever hear Wembley Stadium that loud again. They were right in our corner every step of the way, kicking every ball when the lads were tired.

“They deserve this period of success more than anyone.

“Selhurst Park is a big thing for us. It needs to become a fortress going forward.

“We need the fans more than ever in this transition period. Obviously, it has been a little bit of a difficult period with the lads getting back late and new ideas coming in.

“I’m so certain that we are going to have a really good season, so we need to park the negativity and all be as one. Together, we will be stronger.”
