Admin Ian M Posted August 26, 2022 Admin Share Posted August 26, 2022 If he didn't sign his Academy forms at the hospital immediately after being birthed does he actually count as an Academy product? 7 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colemanballs Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 I appreciate that there are trolls that you all feel need to be put in their place, but I'm just not sure that this is the appropriate place to do it. Anyway, congratulations Raphael. If you keep up the hard work you have obviously been putting in, I look forward to seeing you in the first team. . 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To add my thoughts on the player, I've heard that he is really well thought of by both the management and the senior first team players not just because he has talent but because he is a likeable & respectful person. I hope he does well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that Nige said he was going to stay in his own age group for now, but I wonder if this is a sign that he may be pushed further up the list quicker? If he was to go out on loan I think it will be a local outfit so our coaches can work with him the majority of the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozo Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Could we get the former Brazilian midfielder Leonardo out of retirement, then sign Michaelangelo Albertazzi of Bologna?
