Ikon Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 http://www.crewealex.net/news/article/boss-on-inmans-strengths-512365.aspx?pageView=full Boss On Inman's Strengths Steve Davis says he will look to gradually introduce his new loan midfielder Brad Inman into his first-team squad. Inman has signed on an initial one-month loan from Premier League side Newcastle United as potential cover for captain Luke Murphy and Abdul Osman. With Osman suffering with an ankle injury earlier in the season, Davis did not want to risk going into the busy Christmas period with only the relatively inexperienced Ollie Turton and Billy Waters as back up. Inman featured for the club’s Under-21 side at Nottingham Forest on Monday and went the closest to giving us another win at that level. He had Crewe’s best opportunity in the goalless draw. Davis has bought in the 20-year-old due to his attacking instincts: “Brad did fine for the Under-21s on Monday and we thought he would because he has been in good form at that level for Newcastle. The boss added: “We will continue to assess him and gradually think about bringing him into the group. He will continue to train and settle in. "Brad is an attacking midfield player with an eye for a goal and he can also play up there behind the striker. His strengthens are his movement in and around the opposition box and being creative. He is calm and composed on the ball and I think he wanted to test himself in competitive football. We didn’t want to go until January having to rely on what we have."

leffe186 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Thought this might be the best place for this, as I can't remember where the "UEFA are utter cunts" thread is. I presume there is one somewhere. UEFA have announced the formation of a new competition - the UEFA Youth League: http://www.uefa.com/uefa/footballfirst/footballdevelopment/eliteyouth/news/newsid=1905481.html A new European Under-19 club competition, the UEFA Youth League, will begin in the 2013/14 season to give young players international competition experience at club level. Sounds great. Except, hang on, haven't we already got one of those - the NextGen series? http://m.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/nov/22/nextgen-football-elite-youth-europe?cat=football&type=article Styled as a kind of junior Champions League, it features 24 European under-19 teams selected according to the perceived strength of a club's youth set-up... Right. So isn't the new competition, er, somewhat redundant? Well there's one key difference. "The 32 clubs that qualify for the 2013/14 UEFA Champions League group stage will also be given the opportunity to participate in the UEFA Youth League from next season." In other words, if you're not a CL club already, you can't play. The "perceived strength" of your youth set-up is irrelevant. Where NextGen goes from here may depend on what progress it can make in its second season. At around £5 a ticket, it is an appealingly accessible form of elite football, and timely in its youthful focus. Perhaps more crucially to its own future, it is also another source of revenue, a means of drawing a small early dividend on all that academy outlay. So clubs like Aston Villa or Spurs, having invested "all that academy outlay" in an attempt to break into the highest level by generating their own players, will be excluded. UEFA have seen an opportunity to make some money, and the clubs in the top echelon will have happily gone along, safe in the knowledge that this new competition will be yet another way to strengthen the status quo. The NextGen will die, as many of its participants are the established elite anyway, who will clearly not be able to compete in two competitions. The deal that the NextGen has with Eurosport will be dead in the water. As UEFA make clear in their statement announcing this brave new world: Our objective is only driven by a sporting perspective. My big fat hairy fucking arse, it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe_next_year Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 How does a team get into the next gen series though? i always assumed it was another elitist thing similar to what they are proposing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leffe186 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 How does a team get into the next gen series though? i always assumed it was another elitist thing similar to what they are proposing? Yeah, it's absolutely a fair point. It was set up by a couple of English guys - one of whom was (is?) the director of Watford's academy - and was by invitation, supposedly on the basis of the strength of the youth set-up at each club. I don't know what criteria they actually used - if any - and suspect that they just asked everyone with a decent set-up. Those that were interested took part. It's more that it was a great idea that UEFA are going to just co-opt for their own ends. I was hoping that the NextGen would continue to grow, but no chance.
