How anyone could think that playing young players is the solution here fascinates me.
They often don't get played because the vast majority of them are sh**e. Many of them will be out of the professional game before they're 30. If you look back at the ones we've tried over the years, 90% of them end up being sh**e. Even the ones we hype up to stupid levels. They're worse than the worst of the experienced pros, by and large. The only way we will get relegated this season is if we rely on them as much as many posters on here would like us to.
