I knew he was here but the only public match was the one at Lancaster which I wasn’t able to get to.

I hope the level of U23 players we're bringing in this summer is much better than recent years. It has been pretty average. When will we actually start paying for young U23 players? (Although did we pay for Mancini?)

Surprised when I opened this that it wasn't the first team signing James Vaughan.

Not initially. We had a different trialist at right back up in Scotland.

Virtually all of those brought in a year ago have gone. Only Mancini remains I think.

There’s no doubt that the level is improving though in the last few years as we have hit tougher game programmes.

Haven’t we just sold two U23 lads for a million each?

Undisclosed but around those figures

I thought it was going to be Michael Vaughan, now that would triggered a few on here.

It's great that we're adding to our development ranks, but our window will be judged on 1st team recruitment.

How come? He's one of Englands finest, born on the right side of the Pennines and is now one of the best and most respected commentators of the game.

Whats not to love?

Article just corrected. I’d referred to him as Ethan but the correct spelling is Ethen.

I think the expectation is that the vast majority of these won't be good enough for the first team (assuming we're in the Premier League). They'll get loaned out for small sums and then hopefully a handful of them will be sold for decent fees and the odd one or two will make it to the first team. If you start paying fees for them then that makes the model difficult to get returns on.

Those that we pay for will probably be straight into the first team, like Collins.

you are right in that the majority won't make the first team while we are a PL club..
One new player making the squad on merit per season would be excellent
