Many of us praise them including Me and some say not good enough.
The local media says at some stages they are virtually Stars and Wow they are built up like Premier Stars.
Cardiff Finally have 4 players on loan out in League One , First time in 15 years.
It's going to be very interesting to see how Michael Reindorf does at Bristol Rovers, if Joel Colwill can turn it around at Exeter and whether Eli King can finally keep his recent run of form going at Stevenage.
Kion Etete got off to a terrible start at Bolton, But he has plenty of time to make an impact there.
Eli King has done well in League 2 but now at League 1 Stevenage, mixed fortunes, he’s been going out on loan now for 3 yrs.
These players are not kids at all, so for me they should return this Summer and go straight in to the first team squad or get rid.
As to Kieron Evans at League 1 Newport, NO more renewing dead wood.
Season after season especially on here we say good riddance to Dead wood well let’s not keep them if they are NOT good enough.

In my opinion King and Kieron Evans will be released
Reindorf will hopefully come back and push for 1st squad
Colwill will be with 1st team
Etete will be sold
Kipre, Twose and Giles will probably need to go out on loan
One player who is slipping under the radar is Lawler in the u21’s. He could make an impact next year been very impressive all season since returning from injury. He maybe the one to watch!!

Actually I feel the same way

I don't think many of them who have gone out on loan will come good if I'm honest.
Joel Colwill has the potential, but we need to see him do well in League One with Exeter first. He's passed League Two but League One is a big step up from that, let's see how he does.
Reindorf is another who could go on to do well. Hope he gets the gametime at Bristol Rovers because he needs that, looked a bit raw when he played for our first team.
But the rest of them I don't see succeeding.
Part of the problem is that our young players are over hyped. That puts them under too much pressure, especially when they're not as good as is being said.
For years I've said Rubin Colwill wouldn't make it and that he's not good enough. Others have disagreed with that and said he'd be a great player but now it seems more and more people are seeing that people like me were right about him.

We know there is a massive step up in all divisions.
Langstaff at Millwall is a prime example, he’s finding it tough in the championship.
Joel Colwill is obviously our brightest talent, it may take him some time to settle in at Exeter but I believe he will be able to make that step up. I believe he will be in our first team set up next season. Maybe not a starter, but he will be there.
Reindorf has talent, but he’s very raw. He needs to take his chances and learn from McGoldrick now. Someone who has been there and done it. Wouldn’t be opposed to Reindorf going out on loan again next season.
Eli King I had high hopes for a couple of years ago. Thought he was looking good and would develop into an important player for us. It just hasn’t been that way unfortunately. He won’t get game time for us, especially if we look to bolster our midfield when Mannsverk ends his loan. Time for him to move on.
Etete I’ve said for a long time that he isn’t good enough for this level. He wasn’t even very good at Northampton when he was there. Another that needs to be sold. Not sure why we have offered a new contract if I’m honest.

I may be wrong about Eli King actually.
He won’t get into our team but there is clearly a player in there. We on here probably don’t watch Stevenage games, and go by what certain papers may say, but nothing is stronger than the fans of a certain club, opinions wise.
The below picture is taken from the Stevenage forum. They have been speaking very highly of Eli for the past 3 months.
