The Mail Bag

Play the Academy Lads

I think David Moyes should think very carefully about what team he puts out. We do not have the resources and the current team is tired and we have an injury crisis. But we do have an Academy and we have Reserves lads.

If the reserve lads are shit, then let them go ? don't have them in our Academy and refuse to use them when clearly we need them. A few lads have impressed me but it's clear that Moyes doesn't rate them otherwise he would have used them.

I think if we had had some pace upfront just to relieve the tired legs then Zarate wouldnt have scored against us. All other teams are using their young strikers, look what happened at the West Ham game. That's cost us fourth place. I want to see some reserve youngsters on the bench Jutkiewitz, Agard or Codling.

I don't want us losing fith to Aston Villa. Stop being stubborn, Moyes, promote the youngsters and give us a chance for europe at least. Aston Villa are in form; we dont want them doing to us what they did to Birmingham City.

Maybe, just maybe, they are not ready yet. He had the balls to blood Rooney and Vaughan at 16, and Anichebe at 18, he’s also given Rodwell his debut. You can’t just put young players in before they are ready, it could hinder their future development. If Agard and Jutkiewicz haven’t been used yet it’s because they’re not ready!!!
