In Pictures: U18s get set for FA Youth Cup final

West Ham United U18s are hard at work on the Chadwell Heath training ground ahead of tomorrow's FA Youth Cup final against Arsenal. 

Kevin Keen's young Hammers are preparing for a massive night under the lights at the Emirates Stadium against Jack Wilshere's Gunners, as West Ham seek a first FA Youth Cup since 1999. 

The Academy of Football team have been putting in the graft on the training pitches ahead of the final, under the watchful eye of Keen and assistant coaches Gerard Prenderville and Mark Phillips. 

Our photographer was on hand to capture all the action, which you can view in the gallery above!
