You may know that if I posted stuff like that, I would be accused of 'bullying' others to get into line or else? It may be out dated, but its not outdated clap trap as you have forgotten two things. We won the world cup before academies were even thought off and footballers at all levels were chosen strictly on ability at around the age of 20 not some outdated idea that you can coach 5-10 year old kids that one day may be suitable for league football at the lowest level. Frankie Lord scored many hatricks purely on his ability to head the ball and not one Crewe player since his day has done that....So if that is outdated claptrap I feel sorry for anyone that cannot see the wood for the trees that football is about scoring goals and not defending for 89 mins and hoping you can get a one off breakaway....But hey, I doubt that 99% of todays fans would agree...
Take it easy mate, this is only a football forum hopefully where ALL views are welcome!
