    Except Rowett is saying that the focus will be on getting players out as he wants to slim the squad and reduce the wage bill. Plus up to now he has added older players saying that the squad needed experirnced players who had been there got the T shirt with regards to promotion.[/QUOTE]

    Would you have a guess what wages Davies Huddleston Ledley and Nugent on?

    The focus is still getting rid of the fringe players who Rowett sees is not in the long term future of the club. You need a mixture of experience and youth to grind out good results on the pitch on a consistent basis and currently we only have experienced players in the squad.

    You think? Not really true...unless you think Lowe, Hanson, Lawrence, Thorne, Winnall, Wisdom, Weimann, Vydra and Bennett are all older and experienced in their early to mid twenties.

    But how many of them are first team regulars .2 of the 9 maybe which would suggest we start games with 9 players over 26

    Team average age is 28 and the average age group should be around 24 at the least.

    Suppose you're right when you said to give rowett a chance to mould a team in January . Maybe just me but can't see a team being created at the moment

    Vydra has played for Udinese in Calcio A and has also guided Watford to promotion to the PL from the Championship and has a vast experience playing in the PL with Watford as well so he is an experienced player.

    Weimann has played in the PL with Aston Villa and has tons of PL experience.

    Thorne also has PL experience playing for West Brom.

    Lawrence again has PL experience with Leicester City

    Wisdom with RB Salzburg, Norwich City in the PL, West Brom & Liverpool.

    Winnall has FL experience with Barnsley, S****horpe & Sheffield Wednesday.

    Bennett, Lowe & Hanson are the only three players from the youth development that has been in and out of the squad but hardly get a touch in the starting 11 but Bennett is the most experienced out of the other two having played a part in numerous Championship games and cup competitions to get some vast experience so he should have picked up a few pointers there.

    Would like to see more youth players breaking through and making an appearance for themselves in the side.

    So they're young...but have some experience. Isn't that what you wanted?

    Might not all be first team choices but they're all match day squad regulars, Salopian, with the possible exception of Lowe and Hanson and the former certainly will be, imo, if he ever manages to stay injury free.
    A fit Thorne, who I think is still only 24, and a fit Lowe (20) would both be almost guaranteed a starting place.

    Nothing is going to be created at this exact moment because that’s an unrealistic target. It’s a long term target that slightly started over the summer and will make more of a bigger process in January.

    Have to laugh at the ones who say we need younger players They are the same ones if put kids in and lost a few matches would be on here in a flash demanding Rowetts head What youngsters did Newcastle and Brighton have last season Suppose it depends if you want promotion or not The most successful Championship manager is Warnock and he says you can't get promotion with kids
