Why would academy players also be going? Does anyone else get a pretty bad feeling about this? Maybe it isn't as simple as the owners are not happy with the manager, possibly a further, deeper, and much more serious problem yet to surface?
Starting to look like "bigger picture" stuff at play to me. The academy being cutback to a realistic timeframe,
buy the next couple of seasons players and hope for homegrown players in three years time or so?
Same 'problem' unfortunately for Bobby.
I would think they will want some younger players promoted next season, hence getting rid of Mancini at this time. Some potentially good players who now need to start to play if they are to develop to the best of their potential.
Suarez, Rekik, Lopes, Razak (possibly) will be on the clubs mind, they will want a manager who can manage them properly.
also think there are too many players on the academy books, in the EDS for example you can name several who have no long term future. Mancini's son for a start who is a joke quite frankly
