Absolutely
There is a very real skill in seeing the potential in very young players.
They signed AOC at the age of just 7, swooped for the 12 year old Lallana, and they signed Shaw at 8, after he'd been released from a Chelsea kids group.
They're not.
Walcott was from Newbury
Bale from Wales
Ward-Prowse is Pompey
AOC - Portsmouth
Luke Shaw is from london
Lallana from Bournemouth
I think Chambers is local.
Surplus to requirements?
The right back from the year BELOW (?) him, Chambers, is currently in their first team, and they have another excellent young right back in Clyne. You can't keep them all.
