so are we buying into this theory that the Premiership is the imperialist league tournament of the world? you look at clubs like bolton, arsenal, newcastle, blackburn, even sunderland. how many of these clubs haven't bought all of their players. relative to other clubs do we have more starters from our youth system? i'd say yes. at least for now. add fletcher, wes, evans and o'shea to the list.

I'm a bit confused as to what you are saying. Bolton, Arsenal, Newcastle, Blackburn, etc. don't compete for the league year in year out. Arsenal might be a stretch for that statement but the fact of the matter is, none of those teams can be expected to be consistent top 4 quality (leave out Arsenal). So are you saying we should just forgo the top 4 and concentrate on building our youth system? Regardless of whether it's good enough or not?
