Wharton to keep shining?

Adam Wharton really is the real deal, isn't he?

At just 20- years of age, he is already becoming one of the best holding midfielders in the Premier League.

He only joined Crystal Palace in January, but there are already some big sides sniffing around the youngster.

He built the platform for the attackers to shine last year, he almost seems like a Spanish midfielder in an Englishman's body.

Watch out for him today, I'm sure he will impress once more.
