3 year plan to buy youth for the long term but for the whole period you have a manager on the transfer committee who doesn't want to buy or play youth
Also as someone pointed out, if things for Dibling and Aznou don't change quite drastically over the second half of the season, good luck convincing next summer's lot of highly rated youngsters to come here3 year plan to buy youth for the long term but for the whole period you have a manager on the transfer committee who doesn't want to buy or play youth
Further investment over what is planned which would is between 100 and 150 million a year.
CL brings so much extra just by qualifying so investment could be increased.
Why would these 2 not getting a game have any bearing on future signings?
Teams sign youngsters all the time and you may not see them for a year or 2.
Agents and players want to go to where they will play. For players around 18-23 it's probably the number one thing they look for because it's the number one thing that correlates to career success
A reputation for not playing youth will be a big blocker for signing youth.
I didnt know Moyes had an account on here.
Yet Chelsea do it .
They have an incredibly complex set up/pipeline where players get loaned out, signed for Strasbourg, flipped for profit quickly, etc etc. They're very careful to make it almost always a good career move to go there as a young player precisely so they can keep attracting them. It's their entire business model. Very few young players signed by Chelsea are struggling for game time, and the ones that are are trying to break into a CL team so it's worth it to them to try.
That's not the same as sitting on our bench for 6 months getting bugger all competitive minutes watching Mykolenko and McNeil get starts over you

Not really reflecting that though. As in the summer we signed Aznou, Dibling and Barry.
Either Moyes is known for it or he isn’t as I’m pretty sure this isn’t Ginsberg management. If he is known for it (as lots of comments on here suggest), and this is the case, then they wouldn’t have signed in the first place

Chelsea give mins to all the players though, that's been the issue with Maresca. Being told what team he has too pick as certain players need to keep their market values up. They make a crazy amount of subs/changes between games at Chelsea but players do play then the other 20 players they have all get farmed out on loan somewhere.
Recruitment teams (and managers) can talk a big game when trying to convince a player, but it's definitely a lot harder when there's multiple examples showing otherwise in the most recent season like there might be next summer, that's all. Overall vague reputation is one thing, immediate current evidence is another
