Excellent drinks from GSD, zico — good to sse you on Sunday with one or two other fine Holics — TTG, Clive and NED, super stats
on the youth players breaking through, or not, as the case may be.
Part of the Portuguese's poor record at bringing
on youth players comes down to his hesitancy to use a new batch of academy talents at Real Madrid.
Wenger also always spends money
on youth players, probably need also a young LB.
it will be the same... the new manager will still be required to gamble
on youth players and bargain signings....
In the past we at least relied
on youth players, now we go into the window with big promises, just to renew season tickets!
Not exact matches
The name still lives
on in Walkman MP3
Players and Walkman Phones from Sony Ericsson, but its
youth - in - motion branding has been usurped by the more dynamic and aggressive iPod from Apple.
As a
youth soccer
player, I think I had really good coaches, really good role models that taught me a lot about professionalism and taking care of myself and I feel like I did that early
on.
But I am getting off topic... In the near 19 years of Arsene Wenger and until May 2014 Liam Brady running the
youth system at Arsenal I can not remember them releasing / selling a
youth team
player that has gone
on to be a world class or even top 4 team
player.
Wilshere has that «local boy» thing going for him (since Arsenal has not really been producing anything exceptional as
players) and Wenger obviously rely
on him a lot since he is one of his «findings» (
youth disastrous policy)...
Wenger and his then insistence
on a
youth policy, using only
players from the academy or second rate
players
So if we sell them
on we have to count one of our
youth players for squad registration..
As for Arteta, lets be honest here, he is way past it, surely it is time to give the captains armband to someone else and give his seat
on the bench to one of the
youth players with potential.
Monaco since the take over has spent money also
on big names like Falcao, etc But Monaco
youth scouting is very good at getting very talented
players at such young age and it only takes a good coach to develop them.
I'm personally glad he's staying
on another year, you can't ship out every
player over 30 a team needs a mix of
youth and experience if only Wenger held onto the likes of Ljungberg and Gilberto a little longer our younger
players could of developed a bit better.
Lastly Chelsea have one of the best
youth development squads in the league, it is exactly how they avoid the FFP because they make so much
player sales off young
players not to mention there is a clause that money spent
on youth development is exempt from analysis in the FFP
With transfer fees continually
on the rise and this summer seeing some crazy prices paid for
players, such as the signing of rumoured Arsenal transfer target Gonzalo Higuain by Italian champions Juventus and the crazy money set to be shelled out by Manchester United for their former
youth star Paul Pogba, is this why Arsenal have made just one big transfer so far?
They lost to Mainz by the same score - line the next day, but it mattered little given the amount of
youth players on display.

A big capture IMO... Extremely sought after young
player after proving so big
on the biggest of
youth tournaments.
Form can allow for competition and it wouldn't be so deep that Nelson is totally forced out, we would have to rely
on him for things like the League Cup or early rounds of FA cup as well as injuries and a reminder to the star
players that there is a hungry
youth snapping at their heels for gametime.
Plus having Theo
on the right means it should be easier for
players like Iwobi and maybe even Jeff R - A to step up, it would be easier for the
youth to rep Theo compared to someone like....
Secondly, with their own progression secured and with the biggest game of their domestic calendar
on the horizon, Tigres have taken just 16
players on the mammoth trip to Peru, with all but three of them coming from the
youth team.
Following a discussion by the
youth players who saw protests
on televisions at home, Orlando Gooden, a Junior Comanches coach, told the Belleville News - Democrat that the idea came up during practice and that parents supported it.
i really think England has to stop relying
on big names and put way more into
youth systems like Spain, Germany who always are producing world class
players all the time, and even their average
players are miles ahead of English.
Chelsea only slowed spending in recent years because they went totally ham in the years prior, they are stacked full of good
youth (they sold a lot of quality young
players too) and Roman seems to have little appetite for overspending now but they still have bigger resources than us and better facilities just like City a fact people gloss over and the result of the overspending
on youth sees them recoup money that they then use to spend whilst it looks like they are not spending (also got lucky with the price inflation directly after they went crazy
on youth and the regularity of their China deals is sketchy at best.)
i suppose playing home could be big facture
on the end result hope we win and give our
youth much needed game time and some of our senior
players to who have been
on the bench.
The former Arsenal
youth team
player spent four up and down years at Charlton and didn't appear to be going anywhere fast before he joined West Brom last season and played his part in getting the Baggies back into the top flight and has admittedly done very well this term but it would seem highly unlikely if the former England Under 21 star was
on Liverpool's wish - list.
Strong's gamble
on talented
youth, booting a huge number of existing
players when he arrived, did not pay off.
It says a lot about you that you can do nothing but spout negative drivel
on an article about an exciting
youth player.
You can go for a quick fix and buy 2 - 3 world class
players and spend BPP120M... but instead you choose to spend
on youth and what you believe is in the best interest of the club for the future.
We also had to have a team made up of mainly
youth players that have taken time to develop and a lot who have moved
on before there best years.
Heard nothing but glowing reports
on this boy so we must be concerned we have lost a potential talent before he is even given a chance.Accept its very difficult to convince young
players to stay when clubs like Barcelona come calling but could we have tried harder to keep him or do the
youth team coaches know something we don't?
It is amazing that Arsenal have let such a promising (and prolific) young striker as Benik Afobe be sold this season, and could be construed as very strange behaviour from Arsene Wenger, considering that the Frenchman sets high store
on bringing hot young English
players through the
youth system.
If we cut down
on players in the
youth system we should have more money at the top to buy
players and pay their salaries.
we neither can develop
players through our
youth system nor can we buy them inspite of being one of the richest football club
on the planet
@Mick The Gooner Really strange that both ManC and Chelsea have deadly
youth squads, yet very few of those young
players ever feature for the 1st team... Guess those youngsters are way down the pecking order, with the 25/26
on loan
players waiting their turn also...
We had a LOT of gaps appear in our team, anyone with a head
on their shoulders would know it wasn't going to be this year where we win the EPL as we needed close to a squad to get enough quality in depth without relying
on unproven
youth acadamy
players.
I think it started in the project
youth era, where we counted
on our
players maturing and becoming a cohesive unit.
Any
player not eligible for champions
youth league or below, is either in the first team squad or sent out
on loan.
Well put and food for thought but this has been Monacos business model for some years selling their best
players there developed and relying
on youth to come through its just this year is Korea extreme to their success in the winning the league and cl performances.
Many feel that for the good of England's future, its best young
players should be turning out in
youth tournaments and progressing at a low - pressure level before being introduced into the scary world of being a full England international, where one mistake can drastically turn your whole career
on its head.
If we get through to the semis or even quarters and get drawn against a Man City or Man United we should play a strong line up with only couple of fringe
players from Chambers, Holding, Elneny, Wilshere, etc and couple of
youth players on the bench (Nelson, Maitland - Niles, Nketiah, etc)!
Arsenal should and do invest in
youth but it has to be done for more than saving money
on world class
players.
o'connor - very good
player just needs the playing time
on loan to make the next step up to first team peleguezo - very highly though of by wenger and will be stepping up to the first team squad as a back up to chambers or mert, has the best chance for a
youth defender break through into first team could follow bellerin route.
However if Wenger is going to identify a
youth player or two that he wants to bring in, then I see no reason as to why Mbappe shouldn't be
on the Frenchman's transfer wish list.
I hope we use the Europa to play fringe and
youth players so we can concentrate
on improving next season — trouble is Wenger is an idiot so that won't happen.
There are examples of clubs overspending and still failing to win major trophies and then you have clubs like Southampton who have been selling their best
players for many seasons and still seem to produce more from either their
youth set up or by buying cheaper replacements who go
on to double their value in just one season.
From wenger's recent interview he said the club wanted to buy a cb but the was no one
on offer with the desired qualities hence the decision to stick with hayden, monreal and another
youth player who has been practicing with the senior team.
Youth and competition — Wenger seems afraid to put some of the younger
players on the pitch; I'm impressed that Tottenham has brought in a young side and let them play and develop, and they are seeing it pay off.
Discounting
players such as Arteta, who are likely leaving
on a free, this is a list of what I consider the remaining deadwood and the length of time since signing with us or with the
youth, their debuts:
