Jesus, the bloke is an absolute dinosaur isn't he?
This is a football problem not a Parkinson problem though. Managers aren’t given enough time in jobs to give youngsters a chance to gain experience. Wenger had it nailed it on with regards to youngsters, basically that they’re young and make mistakes that cost points but long term the player and club will be better for it. Managers can’t afford to do that though.
 
Gets his head up and looks to create something nearly every time he gets it. Also looks to get ahead of the ball. Exactly what we've been crying out for so, if he can keep it up - class.
 
I don't think theres anything wrong with what Parkinson has said at all. Neil is in to make a difference and I think we can see already that he can. Our supporters (all supporters) arent particularly patient and tolerant with young players if they aren't good enough. Even Henderson used to get hammered from some and he was good enough.

I respect that. I just disagree and believe that those fans were wrong.

Young players should be seen for what they can become, not what they're currently.

Having a group of 30 something 6 out of 10s is not anywhere near as valuable as having a group of 18 year old that are currently 5 out of 10 that can become 7s.

The two Jordan's are prime examples. Had Henderson been judged on his chelsea game or pickford on his Southampton we would have been 50m worse off.

To state a young lad doesnt get a second chance and has to hit the ground running is bizarre to me.
