It would be fair to say that Crystal Palace's season has not gone to plan so far.

They have just one win in the Premier League and have had to deal with a number of injury issues to key players throughout the campaign.

However, the emergence of Justin Devenny has been a positive note to lift supporters in a tough time.

Devenny made an unexpected Premier League debut starting against Fulham before the international break earlier this month.

The 21-year-old impressed fans by coming into a team in difficult circumstances and holding his own.

Supporters of most clubs enjoy seeing young players coming through the ranks and Devenny is no different for the Palace fans, even though he joined the club in 2023 from from Scottish Championship side Airdrieonians.

He then backed up that impressive start to top level football with a goal against Aston Villa on Saturday, scoring on a quick Eagles counter-attack.

Devenny may find it hard at this stage of his career to hold down a starting spot when all of Palace's key men such as Eberechi Eze and Adam Wharton return.

But he has done enough already to show that he can be called upon as a good squad player, which will be pleasing to manager Oliver Glasner ahead of a busy fixture list in December and January.
