CLINTON MORRISON reckons Academy wonderkid Victor Moses can become a Crystal Palace great.
Moses, 16, is an England U17 international and the hottest property to come through the Palace youth system for years.
The striker last week committed his future to the club by signing a four-year contract to ward off interest from a number of Premiership sides.
And MORRISON can't wait to play alongside Moses who he believes will get the fans flocking to Selhurst Park.
"He's a special one," said MORRISON. "Victor needs to work hard, but his ability is frightening - he could come into the first team now and do a job.
"He is built like a man already. Maybe next year he might come into the team and stay there.
"I will probably be retired by the time he comes in," joked MORRISON. "But, hopefully, I could have a good partnership with Victor because he is a good player.
"There was talk of him signing for Chelsea or Manchester United. Whoever kept him at the club - be it the gaffer, the chairman or Gary Issott the youth team manager - it is a great addition.
"The boy has got it all and can make you look silly. He will get fans back into Selhurst Park, definitely."
