There is one talent by the River Thames who could set the world alight if things go well for him at Fulham.

Jay Stansfield. A striker for Fulham U18s. The young forward moved to the Championship side this summer after a prolific campaign with Exeter U18s last season, and he has already hit the ground running with Steve Wigley's young side at Craven Cottage, netting six goals in six games for the U18s already this season as they sit top of their division and are currently unbeaten.

Jay has a natural eye for goal, something which his Dad Adam was also known for who had a successful career with the likes of Yeovil Town, Hereford and Exeter City before passing away in 2010 at the age of 31. The scholar's small stature and runs in behind the defenders are the same type as Sergio Aguero, Jay being fearless and confident of scoring whenever he gets the ball in front of goal.

The striker will be looking to follow in the footsteps of the likes of Ryan and Steven Sessegnon, the twin brothers who have both tasted first-team action with Fulham, as well as Ryan getting a big-money move to Tottenham Hotspur this summer.

A loan move could well be of benefit to Stansfield come January, perhaps to a Non-League side in London where he could hone his skills against experienced defenders of the non-league trade, spending a month getting kicked, dragged down, being in physical battles with players who have over 300 games of senior football experience.

If Stansfield can continue to develop at the fast rate that he is, then he may well be fast-tracked into the U23s setup at Craven Cottage and could even taste first-team football himself in the Championship if he continues to prove himself as one of Fulham's highly regarded youngsters.

The world could be Stansfield's oyster, and if he can get first-team experience either at Fulham or out on loan sometime in the next year, then the striker will become an even better player and be the next best thing to come out of Fulham, via Exeter.
