All about the money, brought him a house. He was a first teamer at palace, massive step back moving to Spurs.

Bostock is the poster boy of money over career

Sorry, I don't have an issue with young players going to PL clubs, but I think we have to many players going to the larger clubs for Cash rather than a club like Southampton who have one of the best youth set ups in The World. As I mentioned, I don't believe these players tend to make it anyway.

I would suggest a player that wants 30k a week over a proper chance isn't going to make it anyway, wrong attitude.

Also, the players are to blame if stockpiled. I have no time for a player going to Chelsea/Spurs/Arsenal for the cash, even at a young age you sort of know they won't make it if that's the attitude.

It's a good idea, like you said with a few flaws - I am using Chelsea and Wycombe as an example. Why would you want to invest in Wycombe if you may have to cut ties in a couple of seasons if promoted - I think if you are being realistic teams like Wycombe will never be more than a Championship...

Correct, there isn't enough top clubs to go around. Realistically you would want players from 10 or so Premiership clubs, after that the players are not going to be that much of a higher standard. Mas I pointed out, maybe a draft system of sorts, all the Premiership and maybe championship...

That's a good idea, I like it. However, how do you pick sides? Would it be fair that Wycombe get Chelsea and Hartlepool get Sunderland for example? Maybe a draft system of some sort instead of sending a clubs players to one club?

Isn't this an idea put forward by the FA?

I don't have an issue with bigger clubs hoovering up the best young talent, they will get better coaching than they would at say Walsall, it's not being PL bias they just have better coaches. It's what they do with them after which is the issue, they should all have development plans in place...

UEFA cup needs to go back to what is was made for, a cup for the likes of my team Spurs, a club below the biggest teams in Europe, not a cup that is a drop down for the CL clubs. Going back to the main point, I don't know. Hopefully if it's a complete disaster then it will put them off the...

It's the FAs thing at the moment , trying to get the PL clubs to have B teams because it works in Spain

Disagree completely, there are a great number who just don't care about the UEFA cup and would rather just stick the stiffs in from start. It's a decent competition that has been ruined by UEFA. The FA seem determined to get B teams somewhere, if this is the way then great - means they leave...

I imagine so, if prices right. Throw in a uefa cup spot as well, no one in the pl wants it

As long as its U21s only I don't really see the issue with it, I don't really see much of a benefit of it however.
