I see the Barcelona media are bored again. Bernardo Silva's dream move, his agent is away to see if he can make his dream come true. Bernardo himself hung around outside the corridors while Barcelona chiefs were here negotiating the Torres deal in January, in the hope they would take him with them.

Why are we playing a friendly against this club in sept ?
We should keep far away from them .

Indeed. Which is why the club is incredibly smart with buy-back/sell-on clauses. The academy works brilliantly. It's provided a constant income stream and allowed Foden to become, arguably, world class. Palmer looks like he might get close.

You seem to follow the academy much more closely than many on here. Out of interest, which of these 'very much better' lads do you think the club regret letting go/selling? Many people would argue Sancho, but we got good money for him, his attitude stinks and he's been bang-average for over 12 months.

Thankfully very few,if any,so far.....although i believe we are only recently starting to produce Prem quality kids.

Fofana possibly looks like one that got away.

250 games of development to get him to the level he's at today though.

I know that,but had he stayed he may well have developed much quicker and been very useful along the way.

Tosin is another.

However....we have to make decisions based on the 'now' and as already stated....we aint done bad at all so far.
