I personally wouldn't view him as an academy success at all. I do wish him all the best though and I've watched dozens of his development games over the years so I have the utmost respect for him as a football player. Depends how much we get for him. If we received 2m plus then it’s a decent ish success 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on your definition of academy success. If the player can carve out a career in professional football, and at a fairly high level too (Championship), that is a success to me, for the player and our community, although I understand your perspective. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewquayFox Posted 1 July 2021 Share Posted 1 July 2021 Good signing for them, don’t think we would get much more than £2million if that but a decent percentage of any selling on fees… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majaco Posted 1 July 2021 Share Posted 1 July 2021 If Knight goes, with Thomas not needing to be registered, does it mean that our home-grown 4 will be KDH, Sowah and Choudhury along with Barnes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure Sowah qualifies as homegrown. Edit, scrap that. He should do. Been here for 3 years before the age of 21.

Got a feeling Choudhury could be one of the players leaving this summer, maybe promote one or two of the younger players from the U/18 or U/23 squads if he does go… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure this has been discussed quite a few times already and the final verdict was he does not qualify as home grown as he's been out on loan in Belgium for the entire 3 years and not actually spent any time in our academy system... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesta Legend Posted 2 July 2021 Share Posted 2 July 2021 Sort of player you get the feeling will have a decent career. Just our levels are so high now his development is best served elsewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately for him Wes has continued into his later thirties and then Jonny arrived. Caglar's success was less expected perhaps but all these factors have limited his opportunities. Rodgers should think very hard before letting him go. At least as Good as hamza says it all pal, another we are trying to offload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
