Piazón made his debut for the reserve team against Fulham, thereafter he said, 'I am able to play in the Youth Cup now,' he added. 'Everybody knows I am here to play, so my main aims for the season are to play as many youth games as possible and hopefully feature in the reserves as well, and I want to win the Youth Cup.' He also stated, 'I am enjoying the company of Ramires, Alex and, of course, David Luiz is my best friend here. He is so funny and always joking so it's nice'.[12] Piazón scored his first reserve goal in an away victory against Arsenal, just before full-time with a solo effort, inside the box before firing it into the net.[13] He has scored twice in five games for the reserves and once in six for the youth team, most notably the winner in the FA Youth Cup tie against Doncaster Rovers.[14] He won the FA Youth Cup on 9 May 2012 against Blackburn, although failing to score in the match.
