From what i've been hearing its all being done from the bottom up at the academy. For once we are looking for footballers, rather than athletes, and letting the players develop properly.
We are even putting an ethos on education being an important mainstay, with the kids being dropped or even released if their attitudes drop away from working hard in all areas of their lives. Southampton have probably the best academy set up in the uk, and if we can get anywhere near that then we will be on to something.
