U21 Euro's/Youth football

[yuddie 1,693]

Forgive me for posting this to what is predominantly a Scottish football forum but the England U21's have just won their respective Euro's and the English youth sides have now won every major international youth tournament since 2017 from u17's up to u21's.

 

I couldn't help but think of how the FA for all of their blustering and pomp have transformed the English national sides and how that could look for Scotland and more importantly for Rangers if the SFA made brave decisions.

 

What do you guys think? It's not a boast but there's huge untapped potential within Scotland and the club I support in Rangers when it comes to homegrown talent, just look at how well Israel have been doing in recent years.

Stuff the national teams from south of the border have no time for them but you are corect in that potential up here is not used properly.

I watched the final and have to say, I didn't think either team were that impressive. However a friend watched all of the tournament and said England were worthy winners. 

 

It's how these players now progress domestically and internationally that will determine how successful the U21 system is.
