My point Swale was, and I quote "He also doesn't have a great record of bringing Academy kids through". He has bought 22 year olds from other clubs. Rekik? He was there the season before and had his loan extended. I don't know if it was Cocu who did that or his predecessor. Those actions are perfectly in line with my quote.

Yet his potential appointment is precisely because he has a track record of bringing youngsters through! But no doubt he will be listing the formations used as 1-4-3-2-1 etc. and your much vaunted revised way of providing formations will at last be vindicated in mainstream football!
