2) Christian Walton has a very bright future
For many of the 1,334 travelling Brighton fans it was their first glimpse of another potential star of the Brighton Youth Academy – 18 year old Goal Keeper Christian Walton. Walton is set to make the step up from U21’s to first team set up this season, after last night’s performance a full 90 minutes; it’s fair to say Walton looks ready. Despite conceding a goal that he really couldn’t have done much about, Walton made some fine saves, looked to have a great presence and was kept firmly on his toes by the pace of the Crawley attack. Certainly a name to look out for.
