And how good has sancho been in the prem ? Would rather play players because they're good enough not because they're young. Like someone else has said, how many players have we released from our academy, have gone onto better things ? None. Zaha, wan bissaka, moses, Clyne, Mitchell, Watson, routledge have all broken into the first team so it shows when it comes to identifying young players who are good enough, as a club we have a pretty good track record.
