four key areas identified as the primary obstructions to the development of elite english players


Good coaching, from an early age, is easily the most important and it's 3rd in their list, the maroons.
3 and 4 are both equally important, and 1 and 2 would not be an issue at all if 3 and 4 were improved

Andros Townsend was only taught that he should get his head up while dribbling this year.

Ross Barkley still hasn't been told.

Buy his book if you're interested, it's a good mix of basic coaching lessons and his thoughts on how to work with youngsters. It took me forever to find, though.

Barkley's issue isn't that he doesn't get his head up it's that he makes poor decisions

According to the Mail (who are normally pretty accurate when it comes to West Ham stuff), Big Sam is getting fired after the game on Sunday despite the win at Tottenham. Be interesting to see who they appoint if this is true. There's been rumblings of Allegri being after the job if Spurs go with De Boer

An absolute priority is to develop a clean first touch. Receiving and position the ball as it arrives, allows more time to release the ball with an accurate, well timed and well-paced pass. The first touch is the key to becoming a quality player. A good first touch allows you to keep the ball or to play it off first time, thus creating a serious problem for the defender.

THIS IS MY FAVOURITE SEASON
Yeah Allegri's been rumoured a while and it'd mean we keep the Serie A loanees, who Sam doesn't like (which apparently irritated the owners). I want someone good with youth really, Adkins was my favourite choice and then Malky and his ties, but Allegri would be just lovely.

Premier league and championship clubs can loan up to 8 players under 22 to lower league teams, only 5 can be in the match day team, coaches can also be loaned. At the minute 4 players from a single club can be loaned of any age

Is that, they can only loan out a maximum of 8 players overall, or they can only loan out 8 players to a single club, and then 8 to another and so on?

I think it was 8 to a single club and they can send more elsewhere, so double what they currently can but they have to be youth players. Its more the sending coaches with youth players that I thinks a good idea really.

I think one of the problems with the current setup is that being in the Prem is so financially important to clubs that most are utterly loath to play youngsters who might make a few mistakes.

It's a real shame as when played regularly players like Barkley thrive. He's made a shitload of mistakes this season and his decision making still sucks at times, but you can literally see him getting better and better with each game.

Have to see how it works in practice but seems like it would end up making lower league clubs B teams in everything but name.

Yep this is the biggest problem, and why the only solution that would actually make a difference is first team quotas but that will never be allowed to happen as it would ~damage the brand~.

Doubt that'll change anything. England has a bit of an unique problem in the sense that you never see English players leave and go to the usual "development leagues" like Eredivisie because they're already on more money than what they would make at a smaller league.

The Premier league don't even want the change because they aren't certain it'll improve anything and that its not worth the uproar as a result. Its only "big clubs" who want the change

They're proposing to kill lower league football in this country to get an extra 30 Englishmen playing in the top flight, and it won't happen. Some of the proposals might work but the b team one is a nonsense and I bet you any money Danny Mills suggested it.

That's loving wank that Stoke are in support of this. We've spent the best part of the last 30 years in the second and third tiers so I would have thought we'd have a little more understanding that no one wants to see loving B teams.

Raphael Honigstein was saying on Twitter that B teams in Germany haven't been successful and are mostly going to be abandoned over the next few years as clubs move towards the loan system.

They've wrecked the lower leagues for other teams because they don't draw any crowds and have unfair advantages, but the gap in quality between where they are and the top flight is too wide for it to be effective training.

The Premier League give a poo poo-ton of money (from the Football League's perspective) to the Football League and always threaten to withhold it if they don't get their own way and therefore always get their own way

Blackburn are the only team who went down right away. Bolton went through a few managers and actually looked really good for one season under Coyle before they lost all their good players at once. Newcastle were hosed before Sam got there and were hosed after he left. He made zero impression.

It'd be cool and good if the league actually turned into the sport socialism that bigsoccer et al complain about. Let whatever oil sheikhs spend whatever money they like, but they also have to invest an equal amount into every other club, and then same amount into the FL.

£1bn for every club in the pl. Phwoar.

; and an Etihad complex worth of money for facilities all across league 1 and down.

I don't see how increasing the number of required homegrown slots is going to improve the national team. Are we really supposed to believe that there are some unnaturally talented potential world beaters that just never got a chance to prove themselves? It seems to me like it's just going to lower the quality of the league, which in turn will mean that national team players in England will be up against lower quality players on a weekly basis rather than facing challenging competition every single game.

Yes, basically. Players like Sinclair or McEachran have a lot of natural talent but not getting meaningful games stops them developing properly because they aren't ever going to develop the sort of in-game decision making they need while they keep getting snapped up at 17 and then rotting until they're 24.
