Agree but imo Kulusevski will be moved wide by Frank
Think Poch gave Skipp his debut, he also handed winks and Walker peters a Debut. But generally agree he wasn't great with the academy
He might be too slow for him on the wings , he seems to like fast wingers . However if I knew what I was talking about I’d be a coach not an internet saddo
Our academy. Our academy wasn’t good enough. Apart from Kane none of them have truly gone on to big things after us. When Paratici came in he had to fix up the whole thing according to Ally Gold, we spent sod all on it for years, a cheap operation. It’s now in a better place and we seem to have more talented kids like Moore, Donley, Williams-Barnett coming through the ranks. I would never ask a manager be it Poch, Jose or anyone to use kids when they clearly don’t have the ability.
Problem with Poch wasn't the academy, it was not sending players Like Onomah and KWP out on loan to gain experience and keeping them in and around the first team.
He also fucked around with KWP, never gave him a run in the team despite playing well when he was given the opportunity.
He also gassed up Marcus Edwards too early which clearly got to his head.

Absolute dog shit player making a living off of his surname
The Madueke comments that there was no pathway to the first team for him and others are aimed at the Poch era.
I would honestly make Austin second keeper and the best of our kids (club trained) third keeper for Europe. Kinsky wasn’t great shot stopping and he spilled a number of balls that didn’t lead to goals. He needs a loan to learn goalkeeping.
Comparably Austin looked pretty assured in the few games he played
That is probably true as well. Madueke, Cirkin and Parrott must have been very young when Poch was in charge, how much would he have seen them play really?
Mate, a 1 in 6 return isn't just wasteful, it's criminally wasteful.
Don't get me wrong, he's good at many aspects of the game, but he's absolutely woeful in the single most important aspect of being a striker, which is putting the ball in the back of the net.
He's the striker version of Werner.
If nothing else it would be nice making a signing you really look forward to seeing play. A bums off seats player. Obviously the likes of Eze or Simons improve the team but would be good to see a bit of real skill and quality as well.
Omari Hutchinson is "only" 21...so I see that you're starting to like Spurs to sign young talent after all
Werner is much much more intelligent than Darwin. As person and as a player.
Darwin is the type to ask for his pizza to be sliced into 4 instead of 8 because he’s not that hungry. I’d be surprised if he knows how to tie his own shoe laces
Why would you take out a loan to cover wages and signing on fee? Surely they'd be factored in as operating costs over the course of the contract? The loan would simply be to cover the initial up front payment I'm sure. The only variable that I can see is the interest payments.Do you know how ass backwards taking a loan out to sign a player is?
Then you have to add the signing on fee, agent fees and wages over 5 years, you're talking about £120m-£130m committed up front.
Then eventually you gotta pay all that back to the bank plus interest ffs
Bro what did Darwin do to you.
