As loan updates go that's probably as depressing as it could get lol

Spurs did not allow Dane Scarlett to play for Portsmouth in FA Cup tonight.

Good win for U18s this morning 5-1 at Charlton, I was going to go but watched cricket and it never stopped raining in Eltham. Lankshear got 2.

That win this morning looks even better when you know Charlton beat Liverpool U18s 8-1 in previous round of cup.

Has anyone been watching the U21 games on Spursplay? This current crop of players are probably the poorest bunch I've seen for years, I feel sorry for the 3/4 decent players in the team as their efforts are wasted and it could restrict their development.

I know winning is not as important as player development when it comes to young players BUT our youth sides barely win a game nowadays. Our academy side are down the bottom and haven't won a single game so far this season! (Played 12). I hope Paratici, or whoever is responsible for the academy is putting plans in place to improve our whole youth structure.

I feel disgusting saying it but gotta look at Chelsea's approach as they've done so well bringing academy players through to the 1st team.
An often had conversation on here is when they (Chelsea) sweep up the youth FA cup and most other youth tournament, someone says "Well it's only cause they've got the early developers physically, winning at that level isn't everything".
Yeah of course they hoover up all the best talent, why wouldn't they? And winning isn't a bad habit to get young players in to.
Can't really blame Conte for not wanting to use the yoofs if they're getting hammered every week by milwall's youth team or whoever, it is an embarrassing look for the club.

Our u18s have some good players coming through, the current U21 have some players like White, Fagan-Walcott, John and Bowen who have gone backwards and Lyons-Foster, Paskotsi never seem to play, I dont know if they are injured or on loan.

I thought we signed the ex Everton and Derby scout to improve our youth team.

Their youth structure has been excellent for a long while. Ignore those on here who downplay what Chelsea have done at a youth level, they’re clutching at straws.
We have let ours badly stagnate since Inglethorpe left. We have great facilities but weak scouting and recruitment.

He has started to make recommendations and signings, it will take 3 years or so before we notice anything (if we do).

Funny enough this song came on the radio on my way home.
I'm not criticising anyone but if you want to say I am that's your business. But we did sign a youth scout that is all I remember.
The wife changed the station to heart, FYI
Guessing a precaution to not get him cup tied. Might look to loan him elsewhere in jan.

He's a very clever player, always finds space just a bit short of pace.
That description could equally apply to Mr H. Kane
