In the Man City game yesterday they said city have had 25 players make their debut in the last ten years from their yoof team. Not sure we have 10.

    Whatever it is we don't seem to have has a good return from the academy. It seems to produce loads of players that are good enough for lower division sides, but none good enough for our own.

    Is it the fault of the academy not producing the talent, management being too risk-averse or both?

    Chris Iwelumo last night said that this group of youngsters is the best crop he has ever seen.

    Pretty sure we have more than 10. Whether they are as good as City's or any good at all is another question.

    Randolph
    Arter
    Elliot
    Basey
    Sam
    Sankofa
    Campbell Rice

    Is 7 I can think off in the past 3/4 years.

    Ashton (Carling cup against Carlisle last season)

    Walker has made the bench but I don't think he's ever come on.

    Charlie McDonald
    Fortune

    all within last 10 years as well as Henry's list
