Bidwell and McAleny are still there,
Yep, thanks for doing the research. I'm with you mate, I think that proves conclusively that we're dreadful at developing youth players. Moyes out, like you say.
Not premier league players though. Out of the two teams there are precisely two players to ever started a game in the premier league or another league at equivalent level.
You can see why Pistolpov is so fanatically anti moyes, like.
You think we're good at youth development?
I see a lot of comment about Everton releasing talented youngsters who are not given a chance by the manager.
I would be interested to see if posters could put to-gether a team of players sold or released by Everton before their 21st Birthday.
Rooney should be excluded as he was sold for 27m and forced the move to Utd.Rodwell I think was more than 21 when sold.
John Ruddy's the only one I can think of. Now a Premier League #1 and occasional England squad member. I think the next best contender is Danny Fox, who might have been a half-decent back-up to Baines if kept. It's not like we'd have needed him very often, though.Of those realeased for free or nominals not one single player has ever proved the managers judgement wrong.
Our 2004 Youth Cup Team -
Gallagher; Wynne (101' S Wright), Wilson, Boyle, Hughes {c}; Harris (97' Vidarsson), Fowler (65' Anichebe), Phelan; Hopkins, Vaughan, Seargeant.
Subs not used: Lake, Kissock.
Hahhaha where is that guy nowadays? I remember all the hype surrounding Kissock

After that it gets really hard to point the finger at Moyes. Was that Keith Southern released by Moyes? I suppose he could've done a job when Li Tie got injured.
