it is a bit of a crapshoot

But I expect the thinking is that it is better to keep a player too long than let go of a good 'un too early.

Being in receipt of PL cash (either directly or parachutes) does mean we can keep our U23 & Yoot stocked with talent.

Interestingly, Charlie Bishop has just left Chelsea & joined Russ at MK. Bishop was nicked (for £600k) from our Suffolk friends in 2016 and, all he has done since, is score loads of gls for their age-groups.
But he is now taking a big step down to progress. (Sadly it means that their Sell On clause is now probably dead in the water)
