Danbert Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 Allegedly we have 16 academy products playing in the Premier League and only Man U have more. Can you name them?

That's a lot! Can I get the ball rolling? - Dyer - Walcott - Chambers - Ox - Lallana - Shaw - Surman - Schneiderlin (?) - Vokes (?) - Ings (?) Oh, so used to thinking of Ex-players, I forgot our current ones Edited 8 February, 2018 by SuperSAINT

SKD Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 Depends how they define ‘playing’ and when it was written. No doubt talksport have included the likes of Stephens who isn’t an academy product at all

Oh, so used to thinking of Ex-players, I forgot our current ones Vokes and Ings both came through Bmouth Acadmey.
Saint_clark Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 Vokes and Ings were Bompey, not us. I assume they just include any player that has made an appearance this season, so; Dyer Walcott Chambers Ox Lallana Shaw Surman JWP Stephens Obafemi Targett McQueen Mings Struggling now.
Hodgey Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 Do they mean made a prem appearance this season ? Ward Prowse Stephens ? McQueen Targett Obefemi Gazzaniga ?
SuperSAINT Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 Has Sims made a cameo from the bench this season?
The9 Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 Wasn't there an entire thread monitoring the whereabouts of our ex-Academy players? The answer will probably be in there.
GGalpin Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 Martin Cranie has played for Huddersfield this season
S-Clarke Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 SuperSAINT said: Has Sims made a cameo from the bench this season? Yeah, Sims came on right at the end in the 2-2 v Watford. I'd go... Sims McQueen Targett Ward-Prowse Shaw Lallana Theo Walcott Alex Chamberlain Nathan Dyer Martin Craine (he's in Huddersfields Squad, but loaned out atm I think) Obafemi Probably missing a couple of obvious ones...
S-Clarke Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 Of course....Drew Surman as well for Bmouth. And Callum Chambers..... that must be it?
Matthew Le God Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 SKD said: No doubt talksport have included the likes of Stephens who isn’t an academy product at all Yes he is, he played for the under 18 Southampton academy team for a season and then the under 21/23 teams, so how is he not an academy player? Of course Plymouth played a big role in his development, but so did Saints from age 17 to 24.
Matthew Le God Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 SuperSAINT said: - Ings (?) SKD said: Ings came through Bmouth Acadmey. Ings was at Southampton's academy before he went to Bournemouth.
Matthew Le God Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 Batman said: Morgan is hardly an academy product Depends how you define academy. Given the academy process goes all the way up to under 23s now and previously it was under 21s; then... Schneiderlin joined Saints aged 18 and was with us for his development years.

By that rationale Walcott is an Arsenal product.

krissyboy31 Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 Wasn't Dale Stephens in our academy at one point?
SKD Posted 8 February, 2018 Posted 8 February, 2018 Matthew Le God said: Ings was at Southampton's academy before he went to Bournemouth. Was let go at a young age. In the main he was developed and given first team opportunity by Bournemouth.
