Re: New loan signing
most loan signings are young 1st year pros,which are being tested by there clubs at the next level ( higher than resis but lower than there first team ).
The older loanees are players that cant get into the first team and need match time or have fallen out with the manager/coaches.
Very hard for a young lad to shine against more senior pros and different systems.
Although some do make an impression,most dont,and its a reality check for them,that they have to work harder on there game.
The resis system is now a under 21 league,which in my opinion is the right way to go,so lads at 18 are not abandoned,and get another 2 years to develop.
Players have a development/growth pattern of plus or minus two years and growth spurts are random,even upto the age of 20.
Therefore releasing a kid at 18,when you really dont know his true potential until around 21-22 is just a waste of money invested in him(coaching time) from 10 to 17.
People are mistified why foreign kids are technically better than ours,but the blame lies with the pc brigade,
A study shown at Barca,a kid between 8-14 received on average 10000 hours of coaching,our academies for the same period was less than 3000 !!,coincidence or way !!
