We have had talented u19, u17s etc but they never amounted to much due to being unable to step up to the adult game. We reached the final of a euro championship in the mid noughties I think and played Spain in the final. We looked excellent in that tournament and technically very good but the players never made the jump up to seniors. Being good at u17, u19 means very little and doesn't always translate to senior football. All good points. I agree, but it is different this time. The cluster of players we had back then was out of luck, the kids we have now are down to design. Look at Gilmour. He's not massive, but he'd probably run rings around all of those Czech players.
