pete 372 Posted June 23, 2018 Now the fire sale appears to be under way. Lets look at promising young British players from Div 1 and 2. Rather than pursue aging continental plodders. Look to the future lets see if Farke can walk the walk in coaching promising younger players. Not those selected merely for the U23/U18 squads.The future looks bleak give us a team to support with some hope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maddison was an emerging talent even at the end of last season so while I think he did a good job with him it was imo really about just giving him a chance. Lewis I think he deserves more credit for. Don''t get me wrong I think Farke is good with the young players and it''s Webber''s job to provide them, if Farke is provided with older players in this system that''s not his fault, he works with what he''s given.

If wed only kept Howie.. 3 Posted June 23, 2018 Pete... what do you think a “fire sale” is? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
glory.win or die. 273 Posted June 23, 2018 Define ageing..I''m not sure we have pursued any ageing continental powders assuming by ageing you mean past it.Apart from the fact every player is ageing we do need some players at their peak of 27 or 28. I appreciate we need young players to coach but that is kinda the philosophy we have had since Webber appointed farke anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surfer 1,547 Posted June 25, 2018 So does 25 count as young enough - Hanley, Leitner. Or does 24 count as young enough - Zimmerman, Trybul, Hernandez. Or does 23 count as young enough - Srbeny, Ragget, Husband. Or does 21 count as young enough - Buendia. How young does young have to be to be "young and hungry" enough?
