Fulham midfielder Giorgos Karagounis has lavished praise on the club's midfield following the arrivals of Derek Boateng and Adel Taarabt this summer.
Karagounis, who signed a one-year extension on his own deal in June, feels that central midfield is an area where the club is thriving.
"There are a lot of good midfielders at this club with great quality, which is good for the team and provides healthy competition," Karagounis told the club's official website.
"This can only be good for the players and the team as a whole in order to progress and for the level to remain high.
"It gives me a lot of pleasure to help them because I can see a lot of quality among the younger players at Fulham."
Fulham will play Sunderland at the Stadium of Light on the opening day of the Premier League campaign on Saturday.
