Nope. The fewer in the world of football that discover we've got a potentially great crop of kids on our hands the better, or they'll soon be cherry picked and off to waste away in the bowels of an academy somewhere.
Nothing to see here Gareth :shh:
We will waste them, I would welcome as many as possible getting away from here to clubs who will nurture their development off the back of this.
To be fair we are very strong defensively but I feel we do lack a goal threat, I would loved to have seen them come up against some of our recent prolific strikers; Fletcher, Battle, Vincent, Rooney I think everyone would have been going home just as happy but possible 3/4 hour earlier.
Interesting tweet from Jake Miller last night as well and I know a lot may think he is just being bitter but you need to remember Jake turned down an offer from Argyle, has got qualified and turned a passion into his own business. He is not someone who was released and now working cash in hand on a building site labouring. I applaud him as I think someone who has been through it needs to come out and call it for what it is.
All that said however perhaps this isn’t the thread for that, the boys all did everyone proud and it’s one of my proudest days as a fan, it really is great to see and I always thought with Cooper back in goal, any combination of our back four would be strong, Peck back and Rio starting I was confident we would do ourselves justice, even if I would only give us a 40% chance of actually winning. Soak it up and enjoy it boys, it may never get better.
As an aside I would put money on Mike Cooper playing for the England senior team in the next 15 years or so.
