Pozo

I hate giving up on 19 year old kids. Maybe it is easy to tell if they have "it" or not, but I know that I was still growing and developing a lot (not as a soccer/football player, but still). Heck I grew an inch in height between 19 and 20 years old. While Pozo did look out of place last year, I'm not sure that he was that far off. I guess the people that see him daily have a pretty good idea if he has plateaued.
 
Wrote this on him. Honestly, it's the right call. He's just not come on at all sadly..

 
Didn't realise until I saw this just now. Truth be told, he was a very talented player but between his long injuries he just lost a bit of that spark, I don't think he was quite cut out for English Football and its a huge shame as there really was a great player in there. I hope he ends up having a good career, but I agree with the club on this one that it wouldn't be with us.
 
Good luck to him It is disappointing it hasn't quite worked out for the lad but he needs to kick-start his career and back in Spain is ideal.
 
Shows just how much we (well, all fans of all clubs) overrate their prospects.
 
Lopes and Pozo were 2 of our best prospects, they may not have been good enough but we never even gave them a fair chance to see what they were capable of. If we are going to overpay for average English players every summer instead of giving these guys a run in the first team squad then what is the point of the CFA? Before anyone mentions Ihenacho, Bony is injured, Aguero is not at his best, we are 2-0 up at home against Watford and he gets 2 minutes at the end. Not saying Lopes was the next Messi or anything but if arguably our best prospect can't make it then I can't see who will.
 
The CFA isn't for the short term and patience is the key. It is difficult to predict which EDS player is going to make it into the first team.
