I'd hate to see a young player on loan deprive Martin of 1st team chances TBH
Personally I'd prefer to see the best player wear the shirt. There is no room for sentiment. If Martin is better then he will get the shirt.

Nothing at all to do with sentiment. Even if we get back to the PL in 2 years our only realistic prospect of at least competing once there is to have nurtured our own young players rather than play young players on loan. That said I'm only referring to players like Martin and Oxlade-Chamberlain who really we need to develop. It's a question of balancing the obvious short terms goals with the need to plan long term.

Neither a difficult or controversial concept I'd suggest.

If you read the thread you'll know as much as me TBH

 

That was my first ever try at NOT going to Google and popping the bloke's name into the browser, so as to come up with all, and more than all, of the information I require. I was hoping to see an avalanche of helpful info from interested TSW members...

 

Sometimes, I can't be bothered to read the entire thread, as you well know.

Yes, but this isn't really that long and out of the now 19 posts I think 5 are chrisobee 1 liners:D

 

Edit Make that 7 !

As a moderator, I cannot run to every little piffling bit of information posted here or there. You may learn that one day, when I suggest YOU come on board. My time is of the gravest shortage. I hope that helps, without offence. ;)

What are you basing that sweeping statement on ?

Just the fact he is at Man City or have you seen him play ?

 

Yes I have seen him play and based on what I saw he is better than what we have. Bar Fonte. This kid has something very rare for a centre-back...pace, and lots of it

Saw him in the League Cup Semi finals vs United, seemed a bit clumsy and short of confidence, but I guess he must have something for Mancini to plunge him straight into the 1st team (admittedly due to injuries). Would prefer to see how we get on with Martin and Seabourne as back up first of all though, I seem to be in a minority group of fans who rates the latter!

You really think Markus will stay around if we don't?

 

He will sale to the first bidder.

 

I just think that the club needs time develop a team and players from the Academy who can hack it the Premiership and so I dont mind whether we stay in League 1 for another season and a year less in the Championship

Why?

 

If we fail to go up this season John, the team will be dismantled the manager and backroom staff will leave and we'll have to start all over again - Deeming the last 2 seasons on the playing side an utter waste of time, i don't think we can afford that.

I agree that it is not ideal but the backroom staff will eventually have to go anyway I would have thought.

 

 

Getting to the Premiership and Staying there is not going to be easy and will take time but we need to develop a team like that over the next two to three years .

 

Not sure whether Cortese is Patient Enough

In my house there is a room where I keep old knick-knacks and trinkets of the past that help me remember times gone by and gives me a warm sense of nostalgia.

 

Just saying.

What on earth has that got to do with anything confused0024.gif

Won't happen. Which is a shame, because he's a very good player. If we could take him on a season loan with first option if we get promoted, it would be a superb deal, as I believe he has the potential to develop into a first choice premiership player, and the timing would be right for it to be with us.

 

It's all very well having the Academy and developing 15 year olds, but we should also be looking very seriously at 19-21 year olds (particularly ones with PL experience, however brief) as they are the right age that we should be looking at to form the bedrock of our first team when we get there.

Tenuous link but we signed David Burke as our new scouting and talent identification manager from Manchester City, where he was responsible for talent identification in London, the south east and Europe.

Maybe he took a list of players he could coax down to the South coast with him?

I had been wondering the same to be honest
