He's already started against Stoke in the FA Cup last season and performed well and had minutes against Man U and Liverpool on the pre-season tour as well.

The only reason he might struggle is he's still only 18 and moving away from home might be difficult for him.

Ultimately he's absolutely rapid, so it doesn't really matter if he's up against boys or men he will just run past them.

I've never seen anyone able to track his runs off the ball runs so providing your midfielders can pick him out he'll be away.

He is coming here to get games and he will get them I am sure. Palace obviously feel he is ready for the challenge. But for some of our fans to think he will just walk into the team first game - is just wrong. There are a lot of games over the season and they come thick and fast. I expect him and Bidwell to get plenty of gametime over the season.

Fair play to Palace, invested lots into your youth system, opened a new £20m site too I think? Something we should have done when had some money!

I would guess he'll start off getting minutes off the bench but I'd be shocked if he wasn't first choice second half of the season as he offers too much going forward and if your other LWB offered the same he'd already be playing in the Premier League.

I'm surprised no one has made a Youtube of him but there's a few clips on Twtter which encapsulate his game:

Highlights from an U18 game:


Highlights against Stoke in the Cup:

Premier League wants Championship to house loan players in new finance deal

Premier League clubs want Championship sides to commit to developing young British loan talent as part of restructuring the finances of the game
www.theguardian.com

Some directors, however, feel that the more physical demands of lower-league football are not best suited to developing Premier League skills, particularly among players who have not fully developed physically. They believe this could change, perhaps if Championship sides were obliged to field a certain number of under-23 players in their first teams.

Those poor Premier League youngsters…

If the Premier League got it their way it would be a closed shop and the rest of us would exist purely to do their bidding.

No, apparently it was a small upfront fee with a very large sell on percentage

Don’t see the other player coming in as being a defender. Robins has said he is happy with Burroughs and that he is impressed with the lad we signed from Spurs and we have Eccles.
