We have that advantage now, but if others start to offer similar, even if the buildings aren't as posh, & also convince kids it will be more likely they will get a game in the Prem there than at City, we will lose out.
Utd, Liverpool etc are losing the best kids to City, Chelsea, they are using the media to try & undermine both.
Plenty of people on here are happy to sleepwalk through this, but Sancho leaving should be a dose of reality (even though for many, incredibly, it still isn't ). We have to up our game re first team chances for kids, in the near future, or we start to lose out to other clubs for the best talent at academy level.
That's the choice.
