this youth argument is incredibly stupid.
Bye Moyes, bye Fat Sam

Again, McTominay alone played 6x as many minutes as ALL MAN CITY academy players. McTOMINAY.
My point is that the league was done and dusted in February, if not January, and mathematically over in April.
Yet, Pep STILL didn't give his youth players a chance to gain valuable Premier League minutes despite ALL THAT. That is horrible, especially considering the clear talent he has at City in their youth ranks. But Pep doesn't give a fuck about developing the clubs youth, he wanted that 100 point total. So good for him?
If Mourinho did that to a future English star like Foden the English press would have had a damn collective aneurysm.
Fulham-Villa playoff final. Feels like 2006.
Will BTB or numberz get to revive their ded fanhood? FINDOUTNEXTSATURDAY!!!
Alexander-Arnold going to the World Cup despite not being capped by England. Feels like a CYA in case he goes to Kiev and does something special followed by a bunch of "how is this guy not in the squad?!?!" stories. Not saying he doesn't deserve it but he was better leading up to the last two friendlies that he wasn't played in.
Official World Cup Thread? Any chance we put together another boards fantasy challenge for it?
LOL. Yeah, the English press always gives other teams a pass and never, ever, looks to stir the pot. Ever.
You're basically bitching that a 17 year old who was gone for over a month of the season prepping for and playing in FIFA U17 event didn't log enough EPL minutes. Good one. Kid played in 10 games this year and had 3 ninety minute runs with the first team - 2 in the UCL and one cup game.
And do go on about how Man City isn't playing young players. Sane is 22, B. Silva is 23, Jesus is 21, Laporte is 23, Sterling is 23, Mendy is 23, Zinchenko is 23 and Stones is 23. And you're puffing out your chest about minutes played by Pogba (25), Lingard (25), McTominay (21) and Rashford (20) as "academy" graduates.
Apparently Cameron Carter-Vickers signed a new deal with Spurs.

Strange.
Bye Toby?
He just played 3,000 minutes in the Championship as a 20 year old. He's doing just fine.
I'm seeing 17 appearances and 1530 minutes.
