Checking on my facebook feed and someone posted a graphic which represented the difference between the Man City squad and the Ajax team that have taken 4 points from them in this CL Campaign.
How accurate it is, i can't say but i am sure it is not that far off the truth and it goes to show you can build a team which performs at the highest level if the investment is geared at the right levels of the club. It is funny that Ajax, even though they do get the plaudits for this type of set-up it is nowhere near enough, it is incredible that they can compete, although they are lucky to be in such a weak league, put them in the Premiership and they would still compete IMO.
If Levy is shifting us to this sort of model, where from a very young age the kids are trained to work in a system that helps them come through i am all for it, even though it will take a hell of long time to achieve.
It was just interesting and wanted to share even if it is not 100% Spurs related.
