We have Alli, Bentaleb, Winks and Onomah in the CM mix, all 21 or under, and very highly rated. Marcus Edwards, rated by many as one of the most talented AM in Europe, also on the books. Pritchard (22), Carroll (23) and Mason (24) hardly over the hill either.
Yeah, Maddison looked tidy, but given the depth we already have, I can live with missing out.
Marcus Edwards is the most exciting prospect I've seen at our club. Only 17 in December - like to see him training with the first team over the next few seasons.

I am keen to follow this player development the next few years. I honestly feel he has a really great potential to be a top notch player one day.

We really didn't need him. Onomah is of the same age group and a much better player. We have our own.

How's that? Norwich typically do well in the Championship and if they get sent down he's more likely to be given a shot instead of when they're struggling for position.
My point is that if Coventry go up they will also be in the Championship so he might as well have stayed there.

yes but there is a big difference playing with a team in the Premier than in the Championship.
I don't really think that's true either. Championship clubs develop players plus there's promotion to consider and Norwich are constantly up and down. I don't think their training is going to suddenly shift following demotion.

imho i think it is to do with standard EPL is better than Championship and yes some teams do have better standards that others but if you are playing in a better league that will improve you more, but as you said you have to play and if they are in the Championship he may get a better chance to do so.
