There have been numerous Arsenal transfer rumours linking the Gunners with many established stars,
but there is a more believable "Exclusive" in the Mirror that says that Arsenal (and Chelsea I
might add) are going to make an offer for a young English player called Nick Powell. The 17
year-old attacking midfielder is an England [.
Liverpool ready to make fresh bid for Max Clayton
Liverpool are weighing up another bid for Crewe striker Max Clayton in January as competition
increases for the 17-year-old. Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City are also
interested.

Liverpool Under-18s coach Mike Marsh has welcomed the signing of talented American teenager Marc
Pelosi.
The highly-rated 17-year-old midfielder has completed his move to the club's Kirkby Academy from
California outfit DeAnza Force.
Pelosi took his bow for the Reds in last weekend's 1-1 draw at Crewe in the Premier Academy League
and was an unused substitute for the reserves at Blackburn Rovers on Monday night.
The recent unveiling of the Elite Player Performance Plan has been met with a cacophony of
complaint from footballer bloggers. For Gary Andrews of Two Footed Tackle, it was not so much the
straw that broke the camel's back, more a case of the straw being repeatedly driven into said back
with a whopping great JCB -and as Jon Keen of The Tilehurst End pointed out, EPPP could allow
acquiring clubs
Two weeks ago United took on Crewe and got themselves back to winning ways (4-1) before they
travelled off on their annual team building and strength-testing trip to Slovakia. Goals from
Januzaj, Barmby, van Velzen and Rudge were enough to cement what was a much improved performance by
the Academy and also gave us a chance [.

Throughout the day, the QPR Report Messageboard has news updates,
comments and perspectives - even links to other board comments of interest re QPR matters (on and
off the field) along with football (and ONLY football) topics in general.
The theme for the rumour mills this week concerns the possibility of young footballing talent
moving to Spurs and the latest name in the hat is that of Max Clayton, a young striker who had
scouts from no less than 17 Premiership sides watch him score the winner for Crewe in the week.
Crewe boss Dario Gradi has a long history of bringing through young quality players and he had
high hopes for Clayton after the Johnstone's Paint Trophy win over Macclesfield.
Tottenham want wonderkid Max Clayton
Harry Redknapp is lining up a move for Crewe's teenage wonderkid Max Clayton. The 17-year-old
scored his first goal in senior football against Macclesfield in the Johnstone's Paint.

Some time ago, a friend and I were discussing youth power in football and how an academy brings
out talent time and again. I thought this would be an interesting topic to write on though it has
been thrown around quite a bit in the blogosphere already. But, given that it's international
weekend, Phil Jones has been prompted as a future England captain, and Jack Wilshere is causing
people the age of his Dad sweat over him, it sounds appropriate to devote something to the Next
Gen.
He's at it again, that Paul Sturrock. Having struggled for success since his days at Swindon,
Luggy's Southend lead the League 2 table and the only surprise is that so many people seem to have
failed to see it coming.Coming up to 18 months in charge of Blues, Sturrock has gone about his work
in a canny fashion.

Shaun Miller's brace in Crewe's impressive 3-1 victory at home to Oxford was the latest notable
performance from the Alsager-born striker, who is steadily gained a reputation as one of the best
strikers in the lower two divisions of the Football League. Building on his career-best 19 goals
last season alongside Clayton Donaldson, Miller has now taken the role of main striker with aplomb,
scoring

Academy products Brad Smith and Adam Morgan helped England to a 2-2 draw against France in the
European U17 Championships on Tuesday afternoon.
Left-back Smith played the full 90 minutes and pulled off a superb goal-line clearance. Morgan came
on after 71 minutes, while Raheem Sterling was an unused sub.

It wasn't quite smash and grab, but Crewe can feel a little unfortunate to have been beaten in
yesterday's game at Gresty Road.
Gresty Road: The home of Crewe Alexandra
It's another away day for Boro tomorrow afternoon as they travel up the M6 to face Dario Gradi's
Crewe Alexandra. On paper, it looks like it could be another tough game for Graham Westley's side.
Boro have not won a game in their last 6 and on top of that, they have failed to score in the last
3.
Nikola Saric struck a late winner as Liverpool Reserves continued their fine form with a 1-0
friendly success against Crewe on Tuesday afternoon.
The Danish striker cut in on his left foot and unleashed a low drive into the far corner on 84
minutes as a young second-string side edged out the Railwaymen in front of the watching Kenny
Dalglish.
Some viewers may have done a double-take early Saturday while watching the replay of Liverpool's
first goal against Wolverhampton Wanderers to see if Fernando Torres was offside or not. With hair
bobbing up and down, it was a female assistant referee who made the critical decision to keep her
flag down, allowing Torres to run on and take a pass from Raul Meireles and for Torres to slide the
ball into the back of the net.
