Quote: Hopwood "What the game needs is not criteria it's characters. Players you want to go and watch. We need a British David Fifita or a New Martin Offia or Bill Ashurst. These are only going to come from getting more youngsters to play the game and letting then express themselves in academies. But these criteria put more emphasis on electronic advertising signs round the ground than academies.'"
Or, we already have them and no one knows because we don't get them in front of the camera......which is what IMG are all about.
