Palace 'so capable' of staying up - Woodham

Crystal Palace defender Lily Woodham says there is "still a buzz" about the newly-promoted Women's Super League side, who she believes are more than capable of staying in the top flight.

Wales international Woodham joined Palace on loan from Seattle Reign until the end of January.

The Eagles, who became a WSL club for the first time this season, have taken five points from their first seven games, leaving them 10th in the table.

"For every team that comes up it's about staying in the league and I think Palace are so capable of doing that," Woodham told BBC Radio 5 Live's Women's Football Weekly podcast.

"There's a great staff group and some incredible players so I think it'll be fine and everyone’s still excited, it’s still a buzz."

Woodham said there is a "special group" at the club, but she is particularly enjoying playing under boss Laura Kaminski.

"She's such a character, she's so funny," she said.

"She is so kind but when you need to be told, she's ready to be able to give you that advice and information as are all the coaches so it's a real special group being here."
