How many of your youth players will make it through to the first team though?
No we dont We cant go out and spend £30m on a player like you did for both Rio and Rooney - £18m maybe but you paid over the odds for them both so we wouldnt get ripped off like that.
Ive no idea how many will make it through, a few of them are right up there with chances of doing so but impossible to say until you see them at the highest level.

If you want to beleive the sensationalist headlines then yes we do. If you want to beleive what the owners are actually doing then no
Even so, £30m on one player is well out of our legue, £20m on one is a possibility but still wont be a common occurance for us IMO.

TBH at the end of the day Fergie is sat on that £100m high horse of his, and from down here I dont think he has any ground to stand on with mentioned us atleast. Arsenal a little more obvious to attack with their lack of first teamers, but their youth setup will no doubt be filled with English talent.

Is he going to spend £100m on them? As I doubt you'll have a whole load coming through the acadamy in 2yrs time as you'd know about them already.

I dont think Wenger can say £100m let alone spend it.
I read that he said that somewhere the other day, id say he isnt lying
