    If only Akale were able to get a Cameroonian passport, he'd count as domestic as a Cotonou Agreement player.

    perhaps your qualm is with the poster in the first quoted post. they said that, not I. perhaps read my post again and let me know how 'I' assumed.. i also said nothing of playing for the B team. i said furthering his career. it's simple reading comprehension. thanks!

    good luck continuing to study the Villarreal system tho!

    Your interpretation of the foreign player restrictions in Spain is wrong. The restrictions are not the same.

    Please enlighten us what the differences are instead of just telling people we are wrong. Seems silly I have to ask.

    Dude what you eat doesn't make me shit lol.

    I have no onus to spoon feed you readily available, basic information that's been stated in this thread numerous times.

    Especially not at some snark filled request.

    Then why don't they sign him to a contract extension and loan him out until they feel he's ready for their 1st team?

    You need help. You said I was wrong but didn't link or explain why. I still won't believe you until you can provide information. I didn't even think my post was that definitive. It was a logical point not a declaration of fact. Details matter and you're wasting time to continue to tell people they are wrong without explaining why. That's odd.
    The differences between Spanish La Liga and Segunda B foreign player rules are easy to access and basic information?!
    If they are so basic you can take 10 seconds to link them.

    Probably because these things must be earned. Villarreal's academy to first team pipeline is ridiculously competitive.

    Last season was his first season with Villarreal C and his first season playing against adult pros. He performed very well in his opportunities but he wasn't quite as dominant as he was with the U19's and competition for playing time was fierce.

    I felt this was a very important year for him that unfortunately it's been cut in half due to injury. I really wanted to see him absolutely tear up the Tercera Division which based on my observation of Akale and my experience with the league, he's absolutely capable of. But it has to be accomplished on the field.

    He needs to stay healthy and if he performs he could get an opportunity with the first team in preseason or with a Segunda division team but any linear progression isn't possible as he's not eligible to register for Villarreal B or any other team playing in the third division.

    Obviously you're the one who needs help, literally.

    I don't know why you're bitching at me man. I couldn't care less what you believe.

    I'm interested in meaningful discussion, not what ever pissy fight you're interested in.

    You now have some more issues to discuss with your therapist. Is it possible for you to post the differences in foreign player rules between La Liga and Segunda B which would allow easier access for M. Akale to play first team football over 2nd team football. How's that for meaningful substance. That's my 3rd time asking and you refusing each time.

    I don't know why know why this is personal to you. Go ******** yourself with the personal quips. For the second time, I'm not interested in that. I didn't answer your request because you want to be a dick about it.

    In attempt to get you off my own dick, and to prevent you from further cluttering what has historically been a great thread, I'll explain the difference to you.

    La Liga and Segunda Division both place limitations on clubs registering foreign players. Segunda B Divisionis the only level of Spanish football that bars the registration of foreign players all together.

    Players who hold citizenship in countries that are members of the Contonou Agreement are not treated as foreign players in Spain.

    This has been discussed numerous times.

    I didn't say they were too much, I said I wasn't initially interested.

    But dick head behavior invites dick head behavior. I can throw shit too.

    You're welcome.

    You certainly proved that. You should be proud that you're better at it than I. Our posts were not even close. That's a false equivalency.

    I'm not exactly keeping score, it's just the internet.

    Wow got no dog in this fight, but it sure likes somebody ought to do their own research. I am sure it is in this very thread if you can find it with all the homo-erotic trash talking.

    If not there is this thing on the internet machine called google. Try it sometime.

    Agree, this thread has sucked for years. I am always hesitant but keep clicking anyway in hopes of something substantive.

    This thread has had more tape and more full match film and analysis than any other in YA over the past few years but to each their own.

    Academy probably with the caveat that the ones with more have mostly been promoted to YA senior.

    Tape, sure. Meaningful analysis, not so much.

    Now if only I wasn't too lazy to watch the actual footage provided...

    Like I said to each their own. If you haven't valued the threads content over the years no one has forced you to be here, especially not to complain without contributing.

    Nobody doubts akale's talent. We just don't think villereal is the only viable option to develop especially when they won't renew your damn contract

    That's an entirely different topic. I was just talking about the thread. It's been one of my favorites and imo one of the most informative over the past few years.

    A lot of other academy threads could immediately enter the conversation if they regularly posted their U19 matches to YouTube in beautiful 1080p but I digress.
