England U19 missing Jamie Donley severely, they have hardly anything going forward in this game (well almost scored just now). Anyone know why he's sitting out?
Is he not with the U21's?England U19 missing Jamie Donley severely, they have hardly anything going forward in this game (well almost scored just now). Anyone know why he's sitting out?
Is he not with the U21's?
He missed our recent game against Bristol and I could've sworn that was because of international call-up. Seems weird if he's with the u19's and not used, considering his current form.
This sounds promising. We always seem to send our players out on loan to places that just isn’t suited or won’t work out. Look at Parrot and Scarlett.Hopefully this means the academy will have a dedicated loan manager and better loan moves for the players
Johan Lange: Who is Tottenham's new technical director and what will his role entail?
With the appointment of Johan Lange as technical director, Tottenham’s shakeup of its football operations is almost complete. For now…theathletic.com
Lange looked at loans and youth recruitment in a similar way while at Villa. With the former, Lange set up a loan department and gave Mile Jedinak, now a coach at Spurs, the job of loans manager. Choosing the right loans for young players will be another important job at Tottenham, and Villa had great success picking the right moves for players through detailed planning.
Cameron Archer went to Middlesbrough, for instance, because the numbers showed that Michael Carrick’s side created the most chances in the Championship. Archer then joined Sheffield United for £18million this summer, which included a buy-back option for Villa. The 20-year-old Aaron Ramsey was also at Middlesbrough last season, and did so well that he earned a move to Burnley for £14million plus add-ons, and with Villa again inserting a buy-back clause.
Developing young talent at Villa was important to Lange, who was involved in bringing in a number of young players aged between 12 and 17 to improve the club’s underperforming academy. Lange always took an interest in the development teams and led on some contract renewals.

Not all of our youngsters will make it at Spurs, but it’s important we start seeing a return on the ones that don’t too. When was the last time we sold a youngster for decent money?
He was by all accounts. Let’s hope Lange can put good processes in place too.Still not sure about this, Gabby was doing a great job
Three times. Lost and beat Luxembourg and also lost to Ukraine. Poor sods.Northern Ireland picking up a big 3 points, but unfortunately dropping them as well:
