It did not hurt us or me for that matter it taught us hard work pays and didn't leave any mental problems. We even played sports for fun even at 16 I played against men and never looked out of place.
    This Mental thing is going too far as few are genuine mental cases the rest is just an excuse eg Murderers' first thing that comes out of their mouths is I have mental problems or pedophiles I was abused as I kid. Mental issues are just a cop-out for most people and this is from someone that has had mental scarring due to health problems later in life I even now look at it as saying to myself it's just an excuse so get over it.
    Mental health as in - its not a destination, but a process. Its about how you drive, not where you're going when your young, Oz mate.
    As you'll know there's alot to learn about driving a train to its final destination when your learning & laters on as well but you aint got 24/7 public eyes watching your every move on/off the pitch slagging you off.

    I'd suspect you've inherited your parents work ethic & likewise myself but young players are looked after well by clubs, many from the age of 11& later paid handsomely but as Arsenal found out this season that the well paid young ones have lots to learn at the sharpe end of PL to become consistent confirmed performers of merit within squads today & know doubt in yesterday year too.

    I'm pretty sure Leeds youngsters will provide an exciting platform if we drop to show their stuff as they've had an opportunity to discover what football work ethic is & what is required.

    Yes well paid alright more like handed it to them that's what turns them into gamblers womanizers alcoholics so on. If they had to work hard for money they would not be so reckless with it. For crying out loud they are even getting their meals cooked 3 times a day talking about softies and entitled.
    Do rich spoiled brats come to mind?

    Hi Oz. Not sure the "rich spoiled brats" description applies to the loanees, all of whom have acquitted themselves well at their adopted clubs (e.g Claws post regarding Cresswell), but perhaps more accurately aimed at McKennie, Roca, Aaronson, Sinisterra, Rutter for whom LUFC have paid a very, VERY pretty penny.

    They are loaned out because they are shyte and are looking for a gullible buyer,
    Or,
    Because they are good and are looking for experience..

    Usually the first one applies to Leeds. And either selling or buying.

    I'm talking to the new generation generally not just players. They all want everything but don't want to work for it. Here the 10 to 16-year-olds are all of their heads vaping killing people, robbing, and all other crap instead of learning to be at school. All because they are taught that they can get away with it.

    As I said in my last response to your post #25, the general issue isn't what this thread relates to.

    We have a small number of very talented young players who have been loaned out for what at face value seem very slim reasonings, given the gaps in the 1st team squad which have been known for some time, coupled with vast amounts of money spent on VERY questionable incomings and just what that does to the attitude of those loanees on their return.

    Why would you think that the returning young players would be providing an "exciting platform" when (not if) we are relegated, when they have been so badly treated by the club they signed up to join? And why would you imply that they weren't fully versed in the "work ethic" that is required, given that every one of them has featured in the 1st team and given good accounts of themselves both at their "adopted" club and LUFC in the process?
