tomi petrescu

Petrescu hopes to have his future with another club sorted out by the end of the month.

The 18-year-old striker has returned to his native Finland to pursue educational interests.

I wonder which one is correct? I would think skysports. Someone who scores 7 goals in 2 games at under-18 level could probably find another club quite easily...

Micky takes alot of the blame for this.

He was hardly hardly an expert on youth coaching - he thought Nicolas Priet (currently languishing in Doncaster reserves) was a 'great young talent'. This was probably Bassett's decision though.

Looks like he is going to Uni.

Official site says it is for educational interests

I don't believe the club - they have been talking a lot of bollocks recently. Why would Petrescu want to go back into education when could become a professional footballer?

[Sparky]

what a joke , watch tomi go and bang 30 a season in for ajax or something

[Guest Daniel]

#### crazy, no other way of putting it.

I cant believe this has happened.

James Graham our next big star then.

I guarantee this is the last time we hear of tomi petrescu. Maybe some of you will realise that life isn't championship manager.

[Sparky]

[Buzzell]

WTF!!!! Our potential youth developement squad will be demolished by the end of the season! They've all had enough and we all know we should be playing youth! Fcuking ridicolous!!

Might be hard to take for some

[Scow]

So you're saying Championship Manager isn't right?

[Mad Dog]

In my CM03/04 game Jordan Stewart and Tommy Wright won England caps.

Enough said I think.

Saying that, the new one is out this week..

Can't be the way I play it

Leicester has 2 decent Universities. Surely his afternoons could have been spent at one of those, if he really wanted to? Then his options would have been open?

[Jonesy_rules]

i c him going to a lower league club such as Yeovil! but he's a good player, all the best!

LEICESTER CITY have handed Finnish wonder-kid Tomi Petrescu a three-year contract.

The 17-year-old has come through the youth ranks at Leicester, after joining the club as a junior.

Petrescu is one of Leicester's best young prospects and this has been recognised with the award of the lengthy contract.

The striker is rated as one of his country's best prospects and is expected to make a push for the first team at Leicester over the next few years.

The youth international has played ten times for Finland's Under 17 side and is set to lead their attack during the summer's World Under-17 Championship in his home nation.

A year and a half later and now look!! Shocking, gutted, disgusted.

Situation:

> Club has parted company with a manager who had no time for youth.

> New manager appointed who says all the right things re giving youth a chance.

> Young player with huge potential leaves the same day.

If I were that player I would try my nuts off to impress as he will never have a better chance to make the 1st team. But if that is his attitude then f### off is what i say. I do not want people with that shit attitude at my club.

History is full of people with talent who don't make it cos their ego becomes bigger than their talent - remember Neil Lewis...
