You'd not be surprised. Play the youngsters to showcase them and sell.According to a poster on another forum who has listened to Methven’s latest podcast, our CEO has set Nathan Jones a KPI around playing / starting xx number of Academy players in our games.
This is ridiculous if true.
Selection should always been made on form and merit, not on a strategy based on fattening the calf before taking it to market.
This BS from Methven does have a ring of truth to it though - TC, Anderson & Kanu have all been overplayed this season.
