I read she has now departed after 8 years and countless different roles within the youth set up. Best of luck Manisha!
Is this a case of casting off the dead wood or her going off to bigger and better things? I've read that they are looking at revamping the youth set up, is she a casualty?
Lets hope they are streamlining slightly and looking at that next generation!

Good to hear Danny, from the little I've seen from clips and cameos he looks a good prospect. What is his position though, I've read some people consider him as a forward and others more of an old 10? |

Aston, I know their isn't a thread on it so i thought I'd ask - did you manage to catch the development game today? I saw the score and the trialists but any good? |

It was me!
I saw it on BBC and thought WOW, I know they only just finished above us and that he has constantly been injured but I've always thought that their is talent in him. Field, JCS and others have been crocks before they came to us and if he could get the right TLC maybe it could be the fresh start he needs - footie manager style of performance/appearance based clauses.
I think Marti and his team will have a few off the cuff foreign players/markets in mind a la Andersen and the data team will chip in but I think it would be a sensible risk. #armchairfan |

So...
Thoughts? Tyresse Campbell has just been released by Stoke, woth a gamble? Pacey and direct when fit? If our medical team can work wonders with JCS and Field who was previously struggling at WBA
Anyway always liked what ive seen of him. |

Thats a week squad with hopefully lots of wiggle room to pad it out, i'm not clued up enough anymore to know who we bring in but if we can supplement some solid pros with Ahora, kolli etc
I'd be interested to see who comes in for those sold players! But it would give us some capital to spend!!
So by your calculations we'd need:
A new No1
2 RB
1 CB
1/2 CM's
2 Wingers/wide forwards
2 Strikers |

Just to add to the debate, Alfie Lloyd is also the same age as Sinclair and is currently not even close to making the step up; Pedder is 22(i think)
Development is different for everyone, some like Walcott burst through at a young age, others like Dieng was a lot older when he made his bow for us. Its not a one size situation and some of our players will naturally find their level further down.
I've not seen enough of him to really give an educated opinion just echo what a few others have said that, this probably isn't the season to judge him and a summer of proper coaching possibly followed by a loan would be a great opportunity to hone/showcase his talents in hopefully an Eze/Chair type situation. That is if we can find him the right loan and get a forward in ourselves!! |

A shame with EDB as from the little i saw he was an upgrade on what we had, admittedly not as good as Hayden but something to work on. |

I was at the NI game in that tournament and traveled to the WC to watch our game with the USA. Was at the Croatia game in Split when we we were applauded back into town by their fans.
Admittedly, at the WC we didn't do ourselves justice and I think Page felt he had to play Bale/Rambo and Allen even thought none were fit enough but we have the emergence of a new young team born from the fruits of 2016 and JJ has been a monster - Poland are no mugs though and tuesday will be tough!
Thank you SK |

Sorrry im going to bite and i dont mean any personal offence.
I personally would love us to qualify for the Euro's as a small nation their is always a point. It brings money into the FAW and allows us to invest and keep developing as a nation. We have a passionate and loyal fanbase(like QPR) that deserve to have nice things and qualify for tournaments and get to experience tournament football.
By your logic why would anyone support a small/medium sized club, say a QPR, its all about the experiences and happy days in the sunshine with your mates and watching your country do well. |

This is where our academy needs to start producing. It's a topic done to death(i'm aware) but if the first team has a competitive mix of youth, senior pros and some up and coming lower league players you have a great balance and will ultimately reduce your payroll.
Possibly changing the structure of the players contracts could help as well - a bit FM/CM but weighting the contracts more to appearances/goals/assists/clean sheets.
I'm hoping our fresh new CEO is doing a root and branch study of the club and the behind the scenes is identifying ways to streamline and structure us better off the pitch. As Clive has said on countless occasions we are behind the curve on the money we can generate from sponsorship, see Stoke/BET365 for example.
Also, if we have a smaller 1st team we supplement it with the best young Pros coming through from the youth team. |

Hopefully a couple of mill in this for us; if you are right and clubs are interested. |
