Academy

[Martin H]

Not sure if it's my imagination but he seems to developed physically. Nicely taken goals. Really pleased for him. Have to hope the Manager gives him a few more minutes now.

Streamed. 11am kick-off.

I see the U23s are away at Liverpool this weekend and away at MU next weekend. I doubt either will be streamed as they are at 8am and 7am respectfully.

It’s the U16s

[Zohar's Penalty]

Programme on BT Sport this week which it looks like Eze is featured in, South of the River presented by Rio Ferdinand. 40% of English players in the premier league are from the South London area.

It got me excited for where we might be in 5-10 years with the new facility in place.

Anybody seen Nascimento play for the u18s? Seen he's on the bench.

[El Aguila]

40%?!?! That’s mad - I don’t believe it.

I think you are both soft of correct. Rodney is 17 and recently signed a contract with the club and also has been called up to the England u18. Ozoh is 16 and the biggest guy on the field, I think he is also a huge talent.

14 I think. Which is about 3x its population share

I have heard lots of people talk about the talent in South London and how the Palace academy was needed for the club to tap into it. I think it was Wilf who I heard talk about cage football being big in South London and where a number of talented youngsters come from. I assume the 40% refers to English based player s, rather th an the whole PL as I don't think there is 40% of players in the PL from England.

A tight 1st half which Fulham slightly edged. It seems to be a bit more open in the 2nd half but both teams haven't been unable to have a clear chance.

The commentator is also needs to know the difference between Raymond and Rodney as he always says the wrong one!

*our goalie just made a good save.
