He is a good player at that level. And is well suited to that sort of team.
I dont see him having a future with us, I think Foyth has taken his place in our thinking.

He looked a colossus at youth level, but like many it was his physique that gave him the edge. Foyth looks much more assured on the ball and more mobile, his defending will improve with coaching and experience. I sure CCV will have a good career but not at a top club, I hope I'm wrong.

Pretty well my take. Theres no shame in not making this team. And I for one love seeing all the players out there that we made, even if they didnt make the team here.
I think he is a good player, just, for us, not the right player.
Foyth has much more to his game and suits us well. Thats life.

He was not quite cutting it at Sheffield United. Was in and out and then sent back. But at Ipswich he is doing well, but they are playing three at the back so it might be that which is helping him settle and develop. Its still early days for him. He has the physique and pace, he can learn to be more patient on the ball and know when to push in.

He played most games for Sheff Utd, it was only at around Xmas time he was dropped, not sure why and then immediately sent back from his loan in Jan. He was playing in a back 3 at Sheff Utd as well.

Those in the know, say Maurizio isn't really good enough and it is nepotism. Mind you, nobody thought Harry Kane would blah blah blah blah blah

He doesn't play too often so it's difficult to form much of an opinion on him but in the few times I've seen him he's been ok. Looks a bit behind technically compared to the rest of the group but has a good engine and gets stuck in, he usually plays RW as an orthodox up and down the line type wide player but I don't think they've really settled on a position for him yet. He and Max Tainio haven't really had much of a look in so far and have been playing down with the U16s but they might get more of a chance next year when some of this group move up to the U23s, next year's intake won't be so big so there will be more room for them.

Poch's elder son is a sport scientist at the club too. It's unashamed nepotism, but that's latin culture (if anglo-saxons looked after their children and elderly with the same dedication, we wouldn't have a quarter of our social problems)
He writes about it in his book. The family originally didn't relocate to London from Southampton because Maurizio was in the academy there and Poch wouldn't split-up the family. So I think the club agreed to give him an academy place to stop Poch having to drive the length of the M3 twice a day.

I saw this article on him recently

Luka Modric
Anything that helps keep Pochettino happy and the club is fine by me.... Also good to see in Milo's article below that he graduated with a first class degree - is clearly bright and prepared to put the work in.

There's a story in Poch's book about how a group of youth players rebelled against Sebastiano's methods, and how Poch left him to try and assert authority without intervening
