Chelsea loanee Conor Gallagher was delighted to hear of praise from Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville.
The former Manchester United right back spoke positively about the youngster after his performance for Crystal Palace against Arsenal in a 2-2 draw at the Emirates Stadium in the Premier League earlier this month.
"I liked his energy. I liked his commitment to go press the ball. I thought when he got the ball he used it," Neville told Sky Sports.
"I thought he was brilliant for Crystal Palace. You need players in your team who go win the ball back when you're out of possession, do the hard yards and get on the ball in the Premier League."
Asked if the praise meant anything, Gallagher told Sky Sports: "Yeah, for sure.
"If people like that are talking about me, I want to know what they say, if it's good or bad.
"But I'm thankful and happy he said something nice, it's obviously a positive thing."
