We should have given more opportunities to some of our players in the past. Noni Madueke would be good for us, if he hadn’t moved on.
I understand that sometimes players aren’t at the needed level to transition but even if sub appearances, we need to start utilising our youth players more. Start to show we will give opportunities to those that deserve them.
This may keep players with us longer, and may attract youth players to join the club who believe that they will be given those opportunities.
Maybe this targeted player has huge potential, maybe he will be a bargain at that price. I’m just thinking of our overall tactic. Not as if the youth players could be worse at times than some of the performances we have seen from our more experienced players.
