...would they win??
i have never watched the U23s other than in our highlights (where they seem quite good) but do the people in the know think they would beat our current first 11?
i just wondered if we should start giving them a go. [Post edited 27 Dec 2017 19:04]

Ryan Hedges was bought for a few hundred thousand.
We've brought in loan fees for Gorre, Adam King, Fulton etc.
Our academy certainly hasn't turned a profit yet. The facilities were only finished a couple of years ago.
McBurnie's £8.5K looks better value than the £7.5m+ we've spent on Sanches, and the £50k a week Clucas gets. |
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, i think any Swans fan when they heard we were signing Sanches on a season long loan were jumping for joy as he was one of the best young talents in world football.
To me Mcburnies £8.5k a week and Clueless's £50k a week is a disgrace, getting a contract like that Clueless is made for life so what incentive has he got to bust a bollock?
That goes for all of our squad at the moment too. That is down to the DOF- HJ
Swans pay 84% of income on players salaries plus what we must be spending ( IMHO) wasting on the academy its a recipe for disaster? | | | |

If you think that the poor lower division clubs that players like Fulton and Gorre go to pay a loan fee of any significance you are being misled. I would be surprised if they even pay their full wages. |  |

I agree.
Some of the players who play for that side are robbing a living. Why would any professional want to play week in week out for that side? Surely you'd want to back yourself and move on to turn out for a div 1/div 2 side and build your rep.
It's far too comfortable there for them. Huge salaries for not doing too much at all. |
Does anyone know much our U23s earn compared to a L1 or L2 first team player? |  | | |

Matt Grimes is on more than anyone but maybe some Wigan players. £8k a week iirc.
For the rest any info out there is just guesswork, quite a bit of it my own from when I did the data for Football Manager. Some countries require wage info to be public (like Italy) but not here. | | | |
