Should QPR invest in younger players?

[Shania]

Ok, thanks.

1967 cup winning side had 6 players out of the 12 who came through the youth system. 1982 we had 5. It is scandalous how few have come through in the last 25 years

We need more young, hungry and unproven players now who can break into our first team in 2015 or after. We need to bring in some and give time and eventually a chance to prove themselves.

Yep. Pretty sure its an 'option to buy'.

I read there was no option to buy, don't know if that's true though.....but big sams comments seem to suggest there is no option

hope im wrong though if he delivers

Have some of you seen Donaldson playing? The young CB we bought from Scotland.

[W12_Ranger]

No we shouldn't invest in the future of the club...start a thread by asking a rhetorical question!!!

[QUOTE=Joon;1220452]There needs to be long-term investment in youth, but to build next season's team around unproven, young players would be foolish.[/QUOTE

And that's why Harry couldn't risk it this season. There are plus'es and minuses to both approaches.]
