Ralph probably knows the move to SKN St. Pölten will be very good for Klarer and give him the opportunity to expand his experience. The Austrian Bundesliga is no easy ride for any player so hopefully he will come back with more of an edge to his game. He is a very good player and maybe this is just what he needs. Although SKN St. Pölten are not a Red Bull team, they play the same high press style of football that is evident throughout all the RB teams. The whole of Europe is fast moving to the high energy style of playing, and even some of the lower positioned Austrian and German teams often play some really exciting stuff.

Following a discussion with Mrs Greensaint last night I wondered if anyone knows how much a 18yr old academy graduate would typically earn. I know it would vary but our discussion was around the rewards/motivation compared to 30yrs ago in football. My view is it has huge effects on aspirations and career decisions for the youngsters.
