Am really hoping that with Europa, the new U21 league and NextGen we put some serious thought into which youngsters to loan and who to keep.
Europa B list eligible are (I think): Archer, Miles, Barcham, Smith, Byrne, Caulker, Stewart, Nicholson, Carroll, Parrett, Munns, Bostock, Pritchard, Fredericks, Townsend, Kane, Lancaster and Obika. The likes of Button, Rose, Falque, Ceballos, Luongo and Gallifuoco would require spots in the A list.
Eligible for the three Next Gen overage spots are (I think): Barcham, Stewart, Gallifuoco, Luongo, Munns, Pritchard and Kane.
Button, Rose and Falque would be overage for the U21 league. Not sure how many overage player they are allowing.
Agreed with this. Still no official news on the under 21 league - initial reports were for 2013/14, then there were reports for next season 2012/13 so no certainty. IMO if it does not come in we will play Spurs Xi games with under 21 'rules' against other like minded clubs.
Think, eligible for Next Gen over age spots would be : Jonathan Miles, Jordan Archer, Kevin Stewart, Jack Barthram, William Ekong, Alex Pritchard, Harry Kane (Gallifuco is within age) but would think that Eknog (who played only a couple of sub roles in Next Gen is the most likely to play in Next Gen with the others playing a 'higher rated' football next season (loans, under 21's or first team) mainly although with the shortage of defenders Stewart and Barthram in particular may play NextGen as well.
