thanks for that, I usually read this thread but I don’t remember reading much about him. Might have missed it though

I wonder who has given more debuts. Mourinho or Poch?

Well he couldn’t have been any worse than Poch was for the academy. Good signs so far that there’s a real path to the first team for these guys.
This is so good to hear jose talking up the youngsters like this, they must feel 10 feet tall. Scarlett and skipp both in the first team squad next season, get a few more in too ??

I honestly think Mou which is kinda crazy as he's only been here for about 15 months but someone else probably has the exact numbers for both.
his given younger doubts and to players with no loan experience
Also to add if Jose plays you a few times then managers are going to want you on loan, not to mention would you want to tell Jose his not good enough to play ? i think any manager would be hard-pushed to let a kid fail on loan if his lent you a player and told you his good.

After having too much time on my hands I gathered that Poch gave 6 academy players their debut. Lesniak, Onomah, Skipp, Winks, Amos & KWP.
Which one's have made a debut under Mou now? White, Scarlett, Parrott, Lavinier, John, Cirkin, Tanganga? Anyone I've forgotten?

hopefully he’s thinking if I get my head down and work my ass of then I’m in with a shot. But that’s easy to say on an older persons head, until that penny drops for him. Peter crouch spoke a little about it today in his latest podcast, not Troy but what he had to do personally. Worth a listen if you have a spare 45 mins, he talked a bit about his youth time at Spurs. Plus it’s a pretty funny thing he had going on with it.

ccv, marsh, edwards, sterling, harrison, georgiou, walkes and eyoma under poch.
whiteman, walcott and devine under jose. don't think cirkin or bowden have made their debuts yet?
anyway, it's those who come through or at least go on to do well elsewhere(whilst making the club some money) that matter.

Dont think Cirkin and Bowden have played yet, but Fagan-Walcott was on against Leipzig and Whiteman played EL.

Those definitely ring a bell as well. So 14 for Poch then and 10 for Mou?

Yep, you're right. According to transfermarkt they haven't had their competitive debut yet.
