Ok mate, you know more than all the scouts and coaches.

Utter madness, they played well when the team played well...like the back end of last season Dom lead the line superbly.

Fancy that...young lads play wel when team plays well, wow, the shock!!

We play bad they also play bad.

You have to have the correct environment for young lads to develop and play well, its that simple......well, maybe not.

I am talking individually or couldn't you grasp that before going into an uncontrollable rant. They are part of a team and if the team play bad and the youngster plays bad then you say it's the fault of the other players. Players can still play well if the team overall does not. My point remains....none of our youngsters have improved and probably regressed hence the frustration. They haven't stepped up from there initial stance. Now do you understand.....well, maybe not.

I dont think you understand the game at all, shame really.
 


It means that we would be better off not criticising then we do not run the risk of affecting their game.

It's quite simple really

Not as simple as you think. Initial introduction to team = eh! not bad could improve...could have a player on our hands. Year or two down the line and not improved since introduction and frustration all around
 
John Lundstram was the best midfielder on the pitch on Saturday and is 4 years older than Davies, if he can get better and hold his own in the Premiership then why can't Tom Davies?

That is the risk. How long of not improving the team or himself can a PL team allow. Different with a Championship or lower club as they can bring on players over years

Davies can hold his own in individual games though, as could Baningime, Markelo etc. The issue is doing it regularly, and going beyond holding your own. I don't think Lundstram has developed into the type of player we wish we still had, he's just a good professional who doesn't look wildly out of his depth. The same would apply to most Championship level players.
