That will always happen anyways, you will always lose players as you can't integrate everyone.We are going to lose a few unfortunately,hopefully the club can ensure we look after ourselves properly.
The shame would be from this group is if we can't somehow integrate atleast 1 or 2 into our squad, even though many of us can identify atleast 5 or 6 standout talents, it is unrealistic and more of a nice dream to want that, 1 or 2 would still make me happy.
I saw something recently that suggested that this summer was a big one for the academy integration into the first team.
Are you referring to this? (About 46 seconds in)

I didnt see the game today - who was the LB and how did they play?
One issue we have had is that the strength of player coming through doesn't seem to match the need at 1st team level. Delap is one who has a chance but its goingto be tough for the midfield and wide players to get a look in. I have been keeping my eye on the LB but we have been rotating various players into LB for a while.

The leap from age group to senior football is probably the biggest in the game, some just never quite manage to bridge it. That said I’d be very surprised if at least three or even four aren’t part of our squad in a couple of years’ timeThat would be fantastic,given our standing.
No. It was a quote from someone here, immediately following something Pep said about a month ago. I would be surprised if Doyle, McAtee, Palmer and Lavia are not in first team squads next season.

I hope it's not a post from me you're thinking about because I'm as far from ITK as you can get ;)No. It was a quote from someone here, immediately following something Pep said about a month ago. I would be surprised if Doyle, McAtee, Palmer and Lavia are not in first team squads next season.
I think I did post something along those lines, reducing the 1st team squad in order to integrate some of these lads.

If you're talking about Delap he's been here 2 years this summer.He may have more patience as he’s only been here for a couple of months but it’s not impossible if he gets itchy feet
