Just my opinion I think young players are very easily moulded. They have the least amount of experience so are less stubborn to new ideas or set in their ways.
Also they are taught tactics fairly young so it's just a case of implementing the instructions.

I was talking about players I've seen, so not King who is obviously the greatest.
Mine would be CCV and Veljkovic, though I admit I did prefer Veljkovic in DM. There have been some really good ones they have gone onto make decent careers but for me they've been the best.
I reckon Binks might've been heading in that direction too.

So what confuses me is why go for older players with shorter shelf life and more physically restricting age levels than a young guy that can run all day, do exactly what you ask and play aggressively .

to me he's too similar to Dele and I dont think you can have two of those second striker types in the squad. Very unlucky he's a great lad.Jack Roles really doesn't have a future with us does he

Should try to get himself to Greece or Cyprus to establish himself on the national team, same with Georgiou. Sitting around here won't get them anywhere.
I believe Roles is injured . He Also didn’t feature In the u23 Friendly game today against Arsenal which we drew 2-2 .Jack Roles really doesn't have a future with us does he

Shit timing then. Hope he's part of the squad for early cup games.

Haven't read it as I'm not paying but on what basis are they calling him a late developer. As you say he's 18. Comparing him to Kane and Tanganga, from what I read publicly I'm assuming they mean, they think he wasn't very good and developed relatively late to all of his teammates. If that's what they are saying, then they're wrong for all 3 of them, as they have all pretty much been the best players or ones with highest potential since I became aware of them 12/13 for DC and JT, 17/18 for Kane.
I'd argue Winks was more of a late developer as I didn't think he was first team ready until at least his first year in u21s or that's when he became clearly the best in his year group
