Serie A teams will be allowed to have 12 players on the bench from this season, announced the FIGC.
I think this rule would be good for the Premier League as it'd allow clubs to name youths on the bench without dropping an established player to the stands. This can't really happen as it stands and if a team is winning 3-0 or something, a young kid could get 10-30 minutes of vital experience.
This - any games where we are cruising , points in the bag , he should be given 5, 10, 15 mins , whatever. Fantastic experience without the pressure where he would be allowed to express himself. Do not want another Roman job with this lad
How much have you seen, though? I've watched a small amount of him and been underwhelmed at his development from when he first came to us. He lookms like he's stood still.IanBishopsHaircut said:Never mind big money signings..anyone reckon he will be given a shot at the first team this season?
From what I've seen..he looks ready..

I'm not particularly excited about him, Razak, Rekik or Huws to be honest.
Pozo and Lopes look better talents to me.

I agree with that. I wonder if Boyata hadn't spent five months on the bench at Bolton and had gone to La Liga to somewhere like Zaragoza, whether he'd gone backwards as a player.LoveCity said:He wrote an article for Marca today (in Spanish of course):

Nothing amazing in it, just his excitement of playing in the U20 WC. Hopefully it will be a great experience for him and he can enjoy a good loan move next season. La Liga is the best option, these loans to League One and Championship sides are doing absolutely nothing for most of our kids.
