I guess it depends how long you have to be in an academy to be counted. Everyone will see it different.
And it leaves out players who came through the youth system.
Dunk has been with us since 2003.

Not the case anymore.Just a list of guys who will be strung along on endless loans before ending up at some midtable team in a decent league.
yet their business model is precisely how football used to be run and how it should be. A club that is self sufficient.
Yeah, when get past all the hate we are actually running a pretty fantastic academy.Not the case anymore.
Also there's a lot of assumption that they're doing well because of them being good without acknowledgement that actually Chelsea probably plays a big role in making them good.
FTFYYeah, when get past all the hate we are actually running a pretty fantastic poaching racket.
And now these guys have a clear pathway into the first team if they work hard enough, want it enough and are good enough.
Some will leave early though as there are easier first teams to get into.
No s**t, every club in the whole ******* world poaches talented kids off other clubs.FTFY
I know, I'm just trolling youNo sh*t, every club in the whole ******* world poaches talented kids off other clubs.
The GV Suns do it to the Kyabram Knights.
Everton do it too.
Always was, always will be.When was football run like that? This "right way to operate a football club" is a very modern phenomenon.
Getting back to what this thread is for rather than the usual melting about the usual clubs, hopefully Bate gets a cup start. Keen to see how he goes against men.Good start by Leeds in their first foray into the PL2 Div 1.
Watching the Leeds vs Spurs game a week or so ago was like a football manager game. Was an absolute battering, but somehow lost 2-4.
Bate has started well.
Summerville is Sterling 2.0. Will emerge in the PL in the next few months.
