Not suggesting that is wrong Robbie but I can see two things that come out of that statement.

1. It was largely agreed, not so long ago, that we had two players for every position that were capable, contrary to what you have suggested.
2. We are likely to see quite a number of players being sold in the summer, at least 5 (from the bench as they apparently cannot do the job required).

Yes, I think we will see a clear-out in the summer whatever happens.

(I'm "on the road" at the moment so posting is bit of a problem. Normal service Thursday!) <ok>

I'm very dubious about the people we have running/ involved with the youth set up (unless there have been changes of late). I think there is alot of dead wood which needs to be rid of to allow some fresh ideas in.

It is going to take a long time before we start seeing good players coming through.

Irrespective of how good or bad the current set up is, I think we anyway need a marquee appointment to head the academy, somebody with both a top-class career behind him and experience of youth development abroad, somebody whose appointment would be seen as a coup and attract young talent from all over the place. This might just be possible if we stay up this year. <ok>
 
I'd certainly go with the foreign route, I have even less time for British coaches than I do for the players.
