Can he not just replace Fox, also whats happened to Ben Reeves development?

 

Reeves often captains the U21 team - he is playing as a no 10 these days rather than left back though. Gut feeling is why won't quite make it at Saints but will be decent a bit lower down. Hopefully we will loan him out soon to see how he does.

Errrr Alan Shearer was passed over by Newcastle in a trial before signing up for Saints! Choosing young talent is never easy as development occurs at different ages and at different speeds!

 

Err.....I seem to recall that Shearer was a goalkeeper in a Newcastle youth team squad !....no wonder they let him go, he liked scoring much better than picking the ball out of the net.

Must not have been offered a pro deal with us.

 

With the woeful set of left backs Villa have he will probably be in their first team at some point next season.

 

Exactly what I was thinking. Bennett is horrendous!!

Yeah, but he is a decent coach

 

No he's not. One of the most egotistical dicks I ever had the displeasure of playing for.

Perhaps we're having a good old clear out then.

 

Saints release a lot of youngsters every summer. As does every club with its youngsters it doesn't think will make it with them, in order for the next batch to have a pathway.

I wonder if the Villa forum are going: "if he's not good enough for Southampton....".

 

It does seem their is general agreement on Neil Benson, from those who have met him; rare agreement for this board..
