Not sure what that's got to do with it but OK.Not every half decent young player is linked to Bayern Munich
I’d imagine Carlo would want to blood him in a settled back line, not one that’s makeshift with 4 CB’s.
Well my point was a simple one in response to a post about Silva playing young teams , i believe that Carlo has done more in that respect. I don’t look back on Silva’s time as someone who particularly promoted youngsters , if you are making an argument to the contrary then we will just have to disagree.I think the debuts thing is a harsh criteria to use. Only Gordon has been given a debut in the 12 months since Silva left, so it's hardly like a load of players were banging down the door making themselves impossible to ignore. Dowell and Gibson were ignored by managers both before and after Silva, and no PL club wanted to buy Dowell when he was available for a pittance. The logical thing to believe is that they weren't good enough to be picked. Unfortunately many people choose to believe the illogical thing, that they were good enough and were just ignored for some reason.
To be fair defensively we've looked better with those 4 CB's.
I'm not making an argument to the contrary? The post you were replying to appeared to contain a fact. I haven't checked it, but it appeared to be saying that Silva picked the youngest team in the league while he was here. You said you recalled it differently, but if it's a fact it's a fact surely? Your recollection would have nothing to do with it. I was just taking it at face value really, and saying I don't really see any reason to criticise him for not picking Lewis Gibson, who can barely get a game for Reading 12 months later.Well my point was a simple one in response to a post about Silva playing young teams , i believe that Carlo has done more in that respect.

it means he's clearly more than just half decentNot sure what that's got to do with it but OK.
