Fending off the urge
Smailing was bought btw.I didn’t say world class players and said amazing first team players and that they could save us hundreds of millions of players especially when you consider a good squad player these days costs £50 million plus.
If we had O’Connor, Laird, Gomes, Tuanzebe, Chong, Gribbin, Garner and Greenwood even come through as only the same level as the likes of Smalling and Lingard currently are or how Wes Brown, John O’Shea or Darren Fletcher all were which is good squad players then that’s EIGHT squad positions packed out and a HUGE amount of money saved for genuine world class players.
I don’t think in our lifetimes we’ll ever see anything like the Class Of ‘92 again especially in this country as that group were truly special and will almost certainly be remembered as the greatest group of players to come through at the same time in this country of the modern era but that doesn’t mean we won’t see a good group come through at the same time though which this group could if given chance which won’t happen under Jose.
I dont think any other manager has the balls to play o'’Connor, Laird, Gomes, Tuanzebe, Chong, Gribbin, Garner and Greenwoodo' in the league at any stages.
Lets not kid ourselves that there's a manager somewhere that want to risk their job giving game time in the league for those names above and give them chance, even saf arent that ballsy.
The point is what you want is unreasonable, even for poch pep klopp and any other manager.
And btw imho... most young players didn't develop because they're not given chance and gametime or the manager refuses to play them but because they're not good enough at top level.
Fans see them in action at u19 or u23 shredding oppositions but they forgot they're playing against alot worse teams of youths. Wilson, januzaj is an example. They're superstar in u21 and failed to make a long term impact now.
’Connor, Laird, Gomes, Tuanzebe, Chong, Gribbin, Garner and Greenwood and may i add fosu mensah looks good in youth games but tfm hardly perform to fulham standard let alone our standard.
