I was interested to read this morning a story that we may be about to sign a young player called Noam Emeran, a 16 year old at French club Amiens. I understand he is a striker and a lot of top clubs were after him. Reports are that a deal could eventually cost £8.9million, with bonuses.

We did the same with players like Chong and Puigmal. It will be interesting to see how these players work out in future. Players like Garner, Greenwood and Chong should be starting to knock at the door next season. I hope that we are getting these players like Puigmal and if it happens Emeran, with a view to play for the first team in years to come and not as a conveyor belt to make money. I wonder who has the Muelensteen coaching role at the club these days.

Some comments attributed to JM this week that the club can no longer just go and buy the best players from the other Prem league clubs. Maybe this is now a shift of recruitment emphasis?

I think we would all like to see some youth players breaking into the first team. To make that possible you have to have world class promise developing in your youth set up. Hopefully a good move.
