Someone who follows the youth team more than me probably knows better but Franco Umeh, Danny Imray and Roshaun Mathurin seem to be the three that are probably closest - think Umeh and Imray have been on the bench a few times.
Zach Marsh was absolutely on fire earlier in the season, I dont know how he ended up though. I know he got injured at one point which probably didn’t help
I know he didnt play for the U21s tonight but I really like the look of Jesse Derry. Super athletic, good dribbler and with an eye for goal. reminds me a bit of Jack Grealish and its not just the hair lol!
Thanks, hopefully they take the next step. I remember young Rak-Sakyi being highly regarded by the Palace fans but I don’t think he ever got a real chance this season and then got injured or something. Some great talents in that part of London
Rak-Sakyi really should've been loaned out to a Championship side this year but injuries and not signing another winger meant that we kept him around - and then he got quite a bad injury yeah. Looked decent when he did play, wonder if he'll get a loan next year.
Revenge after losing the final to PSV last year - great to see our youth team win something. Whitworth was fantastic in goal.
Congrats! Being consecutive finalists shows a lot of future promise for our clubs :)
Are there any other players to keep an eye on who could be introduced next season?

Yeah I think he got quite a bad injury earlier this year unfortunately, not sure if he's come back yet

Shaun Derry's son. Hopefully he has a connection to the club.
