I'll throw Bazunu and Couto into the mix as well. And maybe the new lad Kayky, depending on how it pans out. Fiorini is a long shot but not impossible.
Without mentioning Tommy Doyle or Kayke, thats a good list of nine or so players with the potential to be 1st team squad players. Not all of them will make it but those that don't will still have a great football career somewhere and earn the Club decent money. The academy really is starting to mature into something special.Feeling pretty confident on Lavia and McAtee. Other than that I think Palmer, Delap, Wilson-Esbrand and one of C.Doyle/Mbete/THB/Burns has a good chance. Too early to say on the U18s, but I`d keep a close eye on Carlos Borges and Hamilton. In only 2-3 years time Fernandinho, Laporte, Gundogan, Bernardo and Mahrez could all be gone, so there are definitely spots up for grabs. If Sterling doesn`t renew this season he`s probably gone in the summer
If that includes Foden who else are you including?As in regular starters? Probably two, maybe three.
I wouldn't include Kayky myself anyway but we're seeing the result of long term planning now bearing fruit.Without mentioning Tommy Doyle or Kayke, thats a good list of nine or so players with the potential to be 1st team squad players.
