Selection of videos here, after Les visited the National Soccer Coaches Association of America's annual convention in Philadelphia.

 

He had a range of questions put to him about what we do at Saints, coaching, and youth football philosophy more widely.

I really don't like the fact we're now so open about what we do. NEVER show your jewels and crowns of the court to your competitors or enemies. We seem to be doing this too much at the moment and I'm concerned we'll lose our edge on other teams as others copy our model.

Nah, don't worry about it. We haven't got some magic formula really. Just a good strategy, very well executed.

 

Don't think for a minute everything we do we've invented out of nowhere, we have accumulated ideas over time from other sources.

 

Les is just sharing a bit of our vision, that's all. He's not going to tell people about the Staplewood blood doping room any time soon.

And fortunately, Paul Mitchell was not involved with that part of the process.

The u16s are getting better and gave Arsenal a good game including Beckham's son a decent draw.

 

My nephew was meant to be playing in that game but got his first call up to the 18s instead. Apparently Beckham jr put a couple of decent crosses in, other than that he wasn't great. Played right back didn't he?
