22 year old. I've not understood our policy of signing young green players from the lower leagues if we aren't going to give them a sustained run.
If we sign him, he will get 1 game pretty much immediately - then we decide he isn't fully developed - so he sits on the bench without coming on for a couple of games. Then loaned out to lower league. That level not deemed good enough to progress to league 1 - so we release and that team signs him and he progresses or not.
If this were a young striker - we play them out of position on the wing for a few games - when they don't score give up on them. They rot in the squad, before we send to lower leagues with their confidence shot.
We all know that Iaciofano isn't going to amount to anything at our club, because he just isn't going to get the time. Unlike some of the more established players.
So in summary isn't it all a bit pointless signing these young low level players?
