Leeds United Chat • Re: Class difference between U21's & the Premier League.
For all the money we've wasted on hoarding young players, the best two are products of our academy, Cresswell and Gray.Arteta obviously considers Nwaneria a real talent, but you have to remember he was probably on the bench because the gooners had four or five first-teamers unavailable due to injuries. Nwaneria was also Arsenal's 5th substitute in the 92nd minute, unsure if he even got a kick of the ball in the three minutes he was on the pitch.
I recall Marcelo bringing on McKinstry on at Spurs in the last minute, never to be seen again. Now at Motherwell on loan.
Unless we are absolutely desperate for personnel, I doubt Gray or Perkins for all their talent will start in the Premier League this season, they may get cup appearances.
The rest will end up in League One/Championship at a significant loss.
