Jim Smith 2,339 Posted November 6, 2023 I’m sure someone with more technical capability than me can do it but interesting Instagram post from Greg Broughton after the game at the weekend outlining the players who have come through for us since he left as a consequence of programmes he and others introduced when at the club. Makes very interesting reading. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Creedence Clearwater Couto 1,297 Posted November 6, 2023 The Alex Matos thing is strange. Surely Dean Smith must have known about his talent, and wanted to play him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have said on here before Broughton (who I think was treated shabbily) was a big loss when he was forced out. Virtually every one of our “crown jewells” was brought in under the previous academy regime, not the current one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I understand it, his pathway was to be pretty much on a parallel with Kamara and would have gotten first team minutes end of last season. However Chelsea had made their interest known and Matos (who is from London originally and also not stupid) made it clear that it was the route he was taking. Just one of those things, our academy can be as good as it gets but location + prestige will always play a role. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

( the club ) is no longer a club it is a laughing stock. Why are B & C still here. 😡 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
