What's going on there then? 10 players move from Serie A to the Championship team over the summer including 5 on the last day!  Apart from Gianfranco "Total Eclipse of the Heart" Zola I hadn't realised that they were fully Italian owned these days. Now it's probably wrong to stereotype but if I was teh inland revenue I'd be keeping a keen eye on things down in Hertfordshire. |

Thanks for that Bayern. A very interesting read. So the Pozzo family have a tried and tested process of setting up player factories designed to harvest overseas talent and sell it on at a profit. They've just opened an English branch. What shame that this will be done at the expense of the development of young English players. |

It is indeed, they were in our group for the U-18/U-21 leagues too and then the Pozzo's pulled the plug. It is sad because they were so good at it, one teams loss could be another's gain!
