Trouble is we've seen in the past a decent academy team, decent reserves and then just dogshit in the first team. No idea what we do in coaching them in the transition but so many just seem to totally lose it from what look like incredibly promising starts.
I'm not knocking them, just pointing out that some of our most promising youth players have failed dismally yet average looking ones like Wilson are now England internationals and touted for £50m+. It can't be taken as read this will translate to the first team.
