We didn't 'only' buy youth
Vrancic, stiepermann, mclean, byram are all in that age bracket.
It really depends on why his career has gone off piste.
We actually have quite a varied transfer approach.
Top level Experience - with injury issues - krul, drmic, byram
Top level youth teamers whose careers went off track - vrancic, leitner, zimmermann, buendia
Highly rated youngsters very early in their career - Godfrey, maddison, (lewis/max)
I'd expect us to carry on getting people in all brackets, if the value is there - but the main thing seems to have been temperament.
