By the end of next season they could/should be pushing for games or else we've failed them.
that's on them, they'll all get the chance to step up again this season to the EDS (a few of them sold), up to them to take itBy the end of next season they could/should be pushing for games or else we've failed them.
I reckon the sudden collapse of the first team has probably done in for this generation of youth players, we've signed 7 players in 6 months, that number will probably get to 11 by next summer. I think it will be another one like 2/3 years ago where everyone gets sold.A pathway needs to be created for the most talented youth players though. Mfuni, Mukasa, Reigan Heskey, McAidoo, etc.

That McAidoo is crazy goodA pathway needs to be created for the most talented youth players though. Mfuni, Mukasa, Reigan Heskey, McAidoo, etc.
yeah if they are 2/3 years away from the first team might be alright. But anyone who would have pushed for the first team next season or the one after that is probably done for.think it probably has for the u21s, the u18s have the time.
does he push pineapples and shake trees (ill get me coat)That McAidoo is crazy good
I think that is for the best…does he push pineapples and shake trees (ill get me coat)
looking at the timeline/pathway that seems to be the norm, think anyone currently in the u18s is fine.yeah if they are 2/3 years away from the first team might be alright. But anyone who would have pushed for the first team next season or the one after that is probably done for.
Not necessarily we may find that with our new DOF we aren't going down the never sell a player until they're on the down slope plan.I reckon the sudden collapse of the first team has probably done in for this generation of youth players, we've signed 7 players in 6 months, that number will probably get to 11 by next summer.

Would boil some piss thats for sure.Meh, spend it all if that's the core you want for the next 5-10. Front load in one window, adjust and compliment less per window going forward. instead of 4-5 per window, get 7,2,2,2, etc
Doubt we do it, its a pure new FM window lol. would be hilarious online though
It will be sold to Trafford as he's basically no.1.So Newcastle are interested in Trafford from Burnley and for 30m but Newcastle said he will have to compete with Pope!
We had some saying "oh we can go for him because he won't want to compete for number one goalie!
Well he goes there and he does that's is a big big miss by us!
Unless Ederson extends he be gone next season so we could in fact tell Trafford that he competes this season get cup games and some champs games and if he looks the business he be our number one next season!
It only be for Ake & Stones (Akanji as well but think he might end up the RB with Nunes, but get RB and then him too)Would boil some piss thats for sure.
Just not sure we have that much of a need. Josko clearly will be playing LCB a lot next season partnered with Dias. Khusanov definitely in rotation. Then we have the likes of Ake/Akanji that seem uncertain whereas Stones I'd say looks like he's going. Add Bah and Reis (who might be a pivot like Stones as was reported Pep likes him at 6) into the mix and we are stacked at CB.
Players like Bah and Reis and hopefully Alleyne will have a future here eventually. Buying a player like Branthwaite just makes it harder for them to make that leap eventually. We'd be investing in him to be here for 5/10 and those players would fall behind him. We'd have to sell all 3 of Akanji, Ake and Stones for it to be likely this year in my opinion. And long term that means another young player is missing out.It only be for Ake & Stones (Akanji as well but think he might end up the RB with Nunes, but get RB and then him too)
Jokso/Branth
Dias/Khus
Reis and Alleyne as the 3rd choices . Bah wont be here.
maybe, dont see them all making it in the same position anyway. Only Alleyne can play LCB (but can play both) would be effected if they went for this.Players like Bah and Reis and hopefully Alleyne will have a future here eventually.

Despite some on here thinking Ederson is a bad keeper he's miles ahead of Pope.
We are also not being openly linked with anyone that says a lot. We don’t want a CB.A new CB doesn’t make sense at all with Khusanov , Reis and Bah already. The club paid a certain amount for a good transition. Doubt we will go for a CB in the next 2 years at least
