Scotland U19 Rudden scores again

[Donsky]

I'd play the majority of the Scotland u19's and u21's in the first team.

 

[Gene_Okerlund]

Anywhere to see the highlites of this game ?

 

[Superrangers]

As much as we may dislike our football association, therefore the international side(s), it is encouraging that we have so many youngsters deemed the countries best. We do appear to have our youth development working at last.

As long as vultures do not come along and take them away, a la Gilmour.

 

[Polar bear]

Maybe for another thread?

Maybe stop talking nonsense.

 

[gersfanal]

Good to think that SG may bring him back into the fold this pre season.

He seems to be going well and maybe some time around Alfredo would help sharpen him up as he seems to be an excellent prospect for the near future !

 

[Lets go 55]

Anyone let Jim White know?

Too busy swallowing the pineapple wine,probably is incoherent the now and he'll wake up the morra still knowing he is an arsehole who sold his soul for tummy gold.

 

[Boldvale]

Wonder why a Premiership team didn’t take a punt on Rudden in Jan.

He's not for sale.

 

[Albertz_Was_King]

He's not for sale.

I meant on loan

 

[PortoyMortoy]

He's not for sale.

His original loan deal was only until January. He didnt mean to sell him

 

[Tamson]

Fantastic achievement for a player to score an international hat trick, at any level, shouted out when I saw Rudden bag his 3rd.

I hope we get these young guys tied down and given a chance,we don't want another Gilmour scenario. All the youth teams seem to be doing great and the old adage of if they're good enough they're old enough rings true, DJ the prime example. Get them in.

 

[Alan Johnson]

I'd play the majority of the Scotland u19's and u21's in the first team.

I feel as if I’ve been teleported back to the Murty era

 

[Valley Bluenose]

I'd play the majority of the Scotland u19's and u21's in the first team.

That probably explains why you don’t have a career in football management.

Go on though, give us your team with these youngsters included then.

Ideally we'd develop youngsters to play for us for a couple of season, win trophies and caps before earning us mega transfer fees. Unfortunately we are at the mercy of the stockpilers, particularly when it comes to youngsters, like Gilmour, who've yet to sign their first pro contract.
It would be pretty special to see 4, 5 or more HTC produced players featuring regularly in the first team in a season or two. Providing they've continued to develop to the required standard of course.

 

[hms]

A few Bears in the Team

7 in the squad and two ex Bears, not bad for a squad of 20

 

[Crouchy]

He looks awkwardly good, if that makes sense?

It’s just a big old food chain.

We rob plenty of clubs beneath us. Part of our place in the ladder.

We develop, ideally they help us win a title, then we cash in.

I can't disagree with any of that.
The stockpiling irks me though.

As of next season, EPL teams are only allowed to have 8-10 players on loan below a certain age.

Might start putting the kids off?

Or, change the dynamics of a transfer?

Pre contract for 2 years time etc: for example, Chelsea try and take Rudden, but he signs a pre contract, with a view to a 2022 transfer.

Both clubs get the required development/game time and they don’t get caught in the quagmire of large scale youth development.

 

[Tom Petty]

The highlights of his hat trick last week up on YouTube now.

Some cracking finishes, his movement for the 4th was exceptional
