Good at developing young talent but then sell them off for a profit. Benik Afobe, Tom Cruise, Carlos Vela, Nacer Barazite, Kyle Bartley, Gilles Sunu, Havard Nordtveit, Jay Simpson, Henri Lansbury, Thomas Eisfeld. The list can go on and on. And I have a feeling that Joel Campbell and Wellington Silva may be joining the same list very soon. How many from the reserves have actually made it to the first team in the last 10 years???
ReplyDeleteindeed but you have to try more and more to get the very best talent
