Quagmire, is that you?

ValenciaYid has just posted Youth in the ITK Thread. I would rather have members of the Youth team in our squad than £15 million mediocre signings.
There is no route to the first team.
Hope Josh can get himself fit as Dier is only cm without any injury problems. Josh should get a chance in cm.
So, guys... Whose making the step up if needs be?
edwards was late for training everyday at norwich according to itk, so unlikelyTime for Onomah to step up and become the player we all know he can be. Him and Winks with AN Other in a three man midfield excites me.
Any hope that Edwards has impressed behind the scenes?
The problem is, we are still overstocked in the positions where they can make a difference.Well this season could be good for our youth!
The problem is the areas we were crying out for signings in are also our weak areas in our U23s.my issue with that is, most of those who poch has with up him aren't actually good enough. people like to say that talent alone will only get you so far if you don't have the attitude/mentality to go with it but the opposite is just as true. i'd rather an average youth player play than spend £ on an average player to come in and do the same job but ultimately i don't have much enthusiasm in seeing either.

We don't have a creative CM ready to make the step up (or at all), our youth strikers are probably league 1 standard and I think Georgiou will look ok but unproductive at first and then struggle. Edwards would be ideal if he turns things around but I'm not getting my Hope's up and I really like Sam Shashoua but he is probably the least likely to cope physically in the PL.
