# Crystal Palace: Fans get emotional over video of Julian Speroni

**Yesterday Crystal Palace posted a video of former goalkeeper Julian Speroni, as it was a year to the day (11 May 2019) that the player had his final training session for the club, and a lot of Eagles fans were getting emotional at the footage.**

Many players come and go, some will be remembered for many years, whilst others will be easily forgotten. However, Speroni falls into a unique category as he will be someone that the Palace faithful will want to tell future generations about as what it truly means to be a player at the south London club.

The Argentine rocked up at the club as a relative unknown in his early 20s from Scottish side Dundee, as per [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/julian-speroni/transfers/spieler/12814), and [15 years](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/julian-speroni/transfers/spieler/12814), [402 appearances and 110 clean sheets](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/julian-speroni/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/12814) later, he would leave a legend.

Countless times he has helped Palace to pick up three points and his heroic saves in the 2013 Championship playoffs in both the semi-final second leg against [Brighton](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/22424087) and in the final against [Watford](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/22592831) are a huge reason as to why the Eagles are in the Premier League today.

Here is what these Palace fans had to say following the tweet:
