Players like Wright don't fall through the cracks anymore.
The academy scouting network is a completely different level to back then. If you're not in an academy by the age of 11 these days you've pretty much missed the boat.
If someone said to you that we are going to sign a 23 year old who has scored 18 goals this season (let's assume that's where he finishes) on a free transfer most of us would rip your arm off and give him the chance to prove himself.
It would be amazing if Alfie could go the other way and have the same success next season.
I am feeling really sorry for Liam Morrison though. He started the season so well before his injury and now can't break back into the team because of a loan player who won't be with us next season.
