He already announced that they are going to be bringing up a few young players from the academy next season http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11668_6112611,00.html and JOM recently signed an extension to his contract, (+ he love the London night life ) so I don't expect him to leave any time soon.
**besides.....you KNOW Abramovic is the man really callin' de shots, so if he say bring up some yutes.....Ancelotti will be visitin' a nursery!! **
My opinion on the youth team players that I have seen this season:
Kakuta -a star in the making. Saw him make his debut against Wolves...worth every bit of the hype.
Bruma - looks like a decent center back. Would be happy for him to play a few more games in the first team next season.
Hutchinson - saw him play at both center back and full back. Looks good enough to be a full member of our first team.
Matic - big strong defensive midfielder, but was anonymous in every game I saw him in, Admittedly he never really got more than 10 minutes as a sub. Cant rate him properly based on all dem cobo sweat.
Sturridge - no longer a youth team player, but I still dont rate him at all. Refuses to play one touch football, starts dribbling whenever is given the ball...I am convinced he grew up sweating small goal football in Trinidad.
Borrini - a next youth team striker. he is $h!t too, hopefully we get rid of him.
