Or should we just trust our academy? Bobb, Palmer, McAtee. Just as good at 23?

Pulling play back when we had a clear advantage, allowing the stamp on rodri which was a clear second yellow for bruno. Yellow card for rodri.
Yellow card for bernardo and then none for identical challenge up the other end.
And thats only off the top of my head.
It always makes me laugh when the commentators give it the whole
"Wow, pep seems to be celebrating much more than usual... its like they won the league..." etc etc
It's because we were being cheated and won anyway.
And pep fucking knows it just as well as the rest of us

A good player no doubt but he cost them £45m and would be at least £65/75m now, if not more as he will have a good few years left on his contract
And we got similar money for Palmer.
Bobb looks very good even at this early stage and coming through is Hamilton who we got a glimpse of in the CL game in Belgrade.
I'd say we are producing as good if not better from the academy
That's my sentiment as well. We're extremely fortunate with our academy. Kids that hardly get s sniff in our first team are probably good enough to be the big man in sub-top teams.
I'm not sure fortunate is the right adjective Nools. A huge amount of hard work has gone into and continues to go into the Academy.
From sourcing players such as Bobb from other countries to developing home grown local talent like Foden, Lewis and Palmer. To educating them, nurturing them and giving them opportunities to make it as footballers. It's surely not coincidence we have the highest number of players in the top 5 leagues of Europe and in the football league pyramid that have come through our ranks
