Apologies if this has been covered but did anyone see the news that we have agreed to join up with the inaugural Under-21 English Premier League?
In principal I think it's a good thing for English football but not sure if it's that good for Tottenham. I think I would rather see our young players out on loan playing with experienced players rather than playing in a lower quality game each week. Then again they'll probably be guaranteed a 90 minutes which can't be bad.
Thoughts?

I think we'll send most of our 19-21 year olds on loan and play mainly u19s in this to be honest. It will probably for us because they will play against bigger, stronger lads and it will improve their game. We seem to follow the playing a younger side model in the NextGen and Eurofoot tournaments

Some kids in the pack not farmed out, are looking at getting even more decent game time methinks.
Which cannot be bad.

Keep the late-developing lads in this, send the man-child Caulkers-types out on loan
