Someone had analysed the academy data (in terms of products playing in what division)of all clubs and we do pretty well.

Swansea terrible! Category 1 academy and not 1 product playing in championship or premiership!

Looks like the majority of players we produce are L1 at best then as that seems to be the higher percentage. Most of our's last season unfortunately we're not even good enough for that level.

The majority of players from every Academy are L1 at best if you read the table. For example, Chelsea have more youth products in L1 and L2 than the Prem and Championship.

Indeed, the drop off is massive all over but to be expected, not all university graduates are rocket scientists. That ignorant oaf just likes to continue with his obsession with writing off young players.

Give over!

29th in the league compared to 70 odd in terms of club position. Definitive proof your issue with the academy is bollocks in front of your face and you still can’t let it go.

Shame it doesn't show how much money was invested into it, I would guess Crewe and orient spend less.

Probably just means they buy in youth rather than grow it

He’s probably not going to be constrained by their academy set up too much as he’s in the U23s and the PDL replaced the reserve leagues. I’m guessing the players that have just played U23 football for a club don’t count towards their stats as it’d be a lot higher across the board.
