To follow up, it would've been great to have Esse as he's undoubtedly a huge talent... but I'd rather we sold Hamer and invested in a similar profile winger that plays off the left.
I'd really like to see us give the right wing minutes to Andre Brooks now and not block his way.
I appreciate he blows hot and cold and his end product could be better... but, at his age, he can only get better and he has shown an awful lot in his senior appearances.
If Brooks improves his end product, then we've probably produced a £10-15m winger out of our academy and it doesn't feel like he's a million miles away from things suddenly clicking into place.
A side note, our owners have to see the wonders that our academy is producing and invest heavily in supporting and improving it. It's been fantastic for this club for 20 years and seems to be getting better. Remarkable over performance.
