nyikolajevics 2,710 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Yes but he didn't make it in our club. Matic didn't make it here either... Who knows what will happen in the future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,188 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Just like Bertrand excel in the CL final against Bayern?Yes but when the philosophy of the club is to win every year, it puts too much pressure on the youth. This is why we have not really gotten any youth. Well that and the fact that we change our managers like we change our underwear. So until I see it, I will rule it out. The saying is simple....."If your good enough, your old enough" if the youth aren't good enough to step up then it's simple, they don't get chance. Every young players dream is to succeed, that's simple, the difficult bit being is who will step up. A slow integration is what's needed with a careful approach, this isn't FIFA and the club, along with manager, will be carefully running the rule of all potential within the clubs infrastructure. Of course we always buy but that's also the point I am making, there isn't anyone yet capable of filling a void required. Do you think the club actually want to keep spending all the time? I'm pretty sure if this so called talent appears in the ranks, or already is they will see that he is given a chance. After all we are in a world that's now governed to an extent by FFP, and the board have been very smart and logical about overheads, incoming spends and outgoing funding for sometime now.Whilst the search for the void filler continues the club must keep motoring in the direction of winners, and we must keep up with the Jones's........if we can't find the candidate we buy, it's that simple, we do not just lump someone in and hope.

Atlas Lion 1,223 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I could see it working. Azpi has all the qualities of a CB bar aerial dominance which is understandable considering his height but then again Canavaro,Ayala,Puyol et al have shown that height shouldn't be a disadvantage.Puyol started his career at RB as well.

Nike 373 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Puyol started his career at RB as well. and both Puyol and ramos play in la liga...Whereas ramos went head to head with welback and was crushed in the air in the champs league.... Dave can make it as a cb in la liga, not in epl.Both height and strength are significant attributes for a cb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballackstothat 43 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I just find it funny people mentioning kalas, omeruo and such like it's a given.I don't trust our youth policy and I will be a doubting Thomas till I see it with my own eyes.Zouma, kalas? Your having a laugh.The next JT replacement is someone we buy, simple as that.we did buy zouma, you don't pay 15 million euros for a player, to leave him on the bench, as soon as terry or cahill get an injury,zouma will come in! deschamps, desaily, and blanc have all said zouma will captain france,and he was consistently rated as one of the top ten prospects in europe and playing regularly for st etienne at 18, hopefully paired with varanne at some point in the future.

I have to take back what I said, you are not one of the worst posters on here, you are THE worst poster in terms of football knowledge. Never understood why people like you choose to waste their only neuron on sports they will never understand. Stick to you local sports soccer boy and save us from this new generation bs.

Dave can make it as a cb in la liga, not in epl.Both height and strength are significant attributes for a cb.I see where you're coming from. There is absolutely no way Azpi will end up as CB, in the EPL, and under Mourinho's current system. I don't know what the history of the topic is, but that just won't work out in today's EPL. He might be able to do that in a more technical league though. Like you said La Liga, throw Ligue 1 in the mix too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
