Ric Flair Posted 14 August 2023 Share Posted 14 August 2023 1 minute ago, Finnegan said: Yeah but define "back." That could just be back in training. That's what I was alluding to, was told they're back training in the next month or so. I'd then expect them to be geared up for returning to action a few months later. @Foreverfox is suggesting that's way off (I think). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moore_94 Posted 14 August 2023 Share Posted 14 August 2023 I don’t expect to see either of them anywhere near the first team this year, even if they start training in October like Tanner suggested then it will likely take a couple of months just to get strength and fitness back into them, and then also probably want them playing in the under 21s to get any level of match fitness back Wouldn’t surprise me if the FA Cup 3rd round in January is when we could finally see them in the first team again 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davieG Posted 14 August 2023 Share Posted 14 August 2023 6 hours ago, Finnegan said: If we want to take youth development seriously and if the long term identity of the club is possession football, all age groups should be playing "Enzoball." No exceptions. How can we expect youth players to transition effectively to the first team if there's playing a completely different system? I'm getting deja vue this was all said when Rodgers started and when his football was decent but nothing materialised as far as I could tell. I get the feeling the Academy is Rudkin's Child and no one can get anywhere near it to change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
