The legal problem is any contract involving a child can be voided by them when they turn 18.

So a 16 year old Wayne Rooney, tearing up The Premier League,  could have walked out of Everton for free?

 

Surely that can't be right?

State of this thread.

 

We are buying Mbappe.....

 

People bite on any random saying something! 

 

 

Mbappe?! What about PSR? He won't come. And he's no momo Sylla! #everyoneout 

 

Is that the right reaction? :P

What do the club do to keep these kinds of talents?
 

Probably a stupid question actually dunno why I’ve asked lmao 

Nothing, except out pay the player, out pay the agent and out bung the parents of all young talent. We just need to spend more than one of the richest clubs on the planet. Easy.

Would still get something for him in the form of training compensation but it won't be a ground-breaking fee and not payable until he signs a professional deal with Man City. 

That's why I said nominal fee through tribunal

If this is true. I’m about done with football and Leicester. 
 

it’s pointless ain’t it. 
 

can’t compete because of PSR, can’t develop youth as they get pinched, the owner and DOF are useless muppets.

 

time to tap out 

If you realised how we got him you'd probably be done with football too. 

 

In reality football is a harsh sport and more people need to realise it. Especially at youth level.

Can't help but feel the same. What's the ****ing point? Can't spend, can't develop your own players, just suck it up while the big boys roll in the TV money and make out like they're hard done by.

 

If the FA were serious about keeping the football pyramid healthy, they'd have changed the way the youth system works to funnel all the talent to the same handful of clubs - who are usually the clubs who need it the least. You just have to hope your players fly under the radar and push on after they turn 18 at the moment.

If only it were that easy I'd have tapped out after we won the FA Cup

I don't mean to absolve the club of genuine mistakes they've made because there've been plenty, in particular we've wasted a hideous amount of money on signings that Rodgers and Cooper wanted because we don't have a strong DoF.

 

But surely you can see that the two things you've just mentioned are out of the control of our owners?

 

The footballing laws in this country are an absolute disgrace that aren't fit for purpose. Rules meant to "protect" smaller clubs financially just absolutely hamstring them. It's near impossible to "break" the big six because they can hideously outspend us with no consequence and they can freely come and poach our young players without any significant cost.

 

It should have been straight up impossible for Nyoni and Monga to be poached the way they were and yet here we are. What exactly did you want our owners or even DoF to do about that?

It's so nice to scroll and thread and see a post which makes you think, "Thank Christ, I don't have to write that now and get called a club stooge or something else".

It's really easy... just let it go, don't go to any games. I feel like a weight has been lifted since I did it. Always said i'd retire if we won the FA Cup after winning the league. 

 

Seen it, done it, so long.

I still support the club, but I very very rarely go to games unless it’s a freebie. And I’m barely on here like I used to be, last 48 hours aside.

He could if he'd waited for his 18th birthday.
