    Craig Maskell, I think Alf Ramsay was briefly in our youth team after joining from Pompey.

    Yep. Think it's on Youtube somewhere.

    EDIT: Leon Best. Did Dexter Blackstock though..? Pretty sure McGoldrick hasn't.

    We've identified a lot of players who made it to the top with us but not many bar Philips and Roberts who made it after they left. Shows how good we are at spotting talent!

    Good shout. I'd forgotten he started with us. Didn't he come through non league before he ended up back playing for us after we got him from West Ham.

    Can't help feeling that we need to define some boundaries here. Some if those named never really came through our academy but southampton were their first professional club. It's not quite the same is it.

    And of course there are others who signed on schoolboy terms but were released only to make it good elsewhere eventually. Not sure we are entitled to any credit there either!
