Three Nottingham Forest youngsters who could save Steve Cooper millions in transfer market

Nottingham Forest's Under-18s have booked themselves into an FA Youth Cup final spot for the first time in the club's history and some supporters are beginning to wonder whether some of those in Warren Joyce's squad could be future first-team stars.

The young Reds produced a dramatic comeback to score three times in the final five minutes to beat multiple trophy-winners Chelsea in their last four tie. Charlie Webster gave the visitors the lead after an hour at the City Ground before Dale Taylor leveled the scores with five minutes left on the clock.

Detlef Esapa Osong put the home side ahead with a reactive strike on 89 minutes and a converted penalty deep into stoppage-time. That victory means Nottingham Forest will now play Manchester United in a bid to make history all over again by lifting the trophy for the very first time. A date has yet to be confirmed.
