To be fair if this is what we wanted we should have had a sporting director in place before Lampard was appointed… making these big changes should be done in the correct order….
The thing is it should have been sorted before the January window too…
Questions I’d like answering is
how important is the Academy going to be moving forward? And will the new head coach look to use this more than Mark did during his 7 and half years in charge. (Only 3 noticeable graduates Bayliss, Shipley and Eccles….)
What about Eccles chance just after half time??? He hits the target it’s a goal keepers out of position defenders can’t stop him….
what does he do….
for me that was easier than both bassetts and hajis…
How many minutes have any of them played?? Think Andrews played less than 1 minute against Boro…
We had a midfield crisis none of them were looked at to help out… seems to me the academy stopped producing when Stevens left… Howley and Burroughs in 4 years isn’t great, when other Cat 2 academy’s...
I don’t get why no one asked about the academy and why robins doesn’t use it… midfield crisis and no academy player gets a sniff… it would have been good too if Doug sees it as a long term investment like we think it should be…
