Palace boss Warnock: Clyne will be England star

Crystal Palace boss Neil Warnock is convinced about the quality of Nathaniel Clyne.

Warnock is delighted for Clyne over his first call to the England squad this week.

"I've been praising Clyne for years," he told talkSPORT. "He's the best defensive right-back there is.

"He's done it the right way as well. He stayed at Crystal Palace, when he could have left, and played a couple of hundred games. Then he moved to Southampton and now he's with the England team.

"He's such a level headed lad, I'm delighted for him. Once he's given an opportunity, whether it's against San Marino or anybody else, Roy will see [how good he is]. He'll become a [permanent] fixture over the next few years."
