Cam Not only did they pay 9 million for him he's been training in the first team along with 5 others who also have played for city in the EFL cup.
I get the feeling some don't like the premier League under 21s in the comp because of the "them Vs us" attitude or them with money telling us poor clubs what to do. It's not for the footballing skills.
The cup was on its arse long before these teams joined. (Add EFL cup to that)
