I spent 30 minutes watching this twice :D

What a player. I've seen most of these but when you put everything in one place it's amazing.
Damn this league has so much young and amazing talents in the smaller teams. If this was just like 7 or 8 years ago all of those players would have been spread around teams like Juventus, Inter and Milan. But these days the smaller teams play hardball. I can't for example understand how Napoli manages to keep a guy like Hamsik around without him bitching about leaving, obviously he's too good for a team like Napoli.

You can guarantee that at least one big club in Italy will splash out on one of their youth prospects in the future. They are a very smart club.

And then 1-2 out of 40 will be very good and everyone here will ask why we don't have scouts like Udinese.

But really they are just a farm club, they snap everyone up and make a lot of money out of a few, that's not us.
That was exactly what I was thinking.

They are from our system, it's a bit different, every big club does that except those in Spain/Germany with B squads.
Most of those players that Udinese are now loaning were in their primavera too, I think, bought when they were 17-18. We're getting lots of kids that age, or a little younger (16) from other Italian teams and play them in our youth teams too. In both cases these guys are considered home grown players.

Ok well I agree to an extent if you are just talking about this season as we have brought in many kids, mostly Italians of course, Udinese pick up Africans and South Americans at 17-20 and clearly at some point you would have to distinguish between players who are from the club or helped develope there.
