I really hope not. Of course not everyone will make it, in fact many won't, but I think it would be an absolute tragedy if the products of our academy became commodities to be sold on without getting the chance to develop with Saints.
For those comparing JWP to an 18-year-old Morgan, please remember that there were fans on the original 606 forum lamenting his performances and calling for Wotton to replace him against teams the likes of Luton/Colchester etc. Substantially easier games than away to Man City on the first game of the season
It would be a shame. I really want us to bring on a generation such as United did, with Neville, Scholes, Beckham, Giggs et al.
