http://www.espnfc.com.ng/blog/tacti...southampton-model-clubs-of-the-premier-league A good article comparing Saints and Swansea as examples of model clubs ahead of this weekend's game.
I also think West Bromwich Albion are a good blueprint. Although nowhere near the top, they also spend within their budget. Would be good if they can progress to the later stages of this season's FA Cup. From a neutral point of view it would be wonderful if they could get to the final and maybe turn over one of the big boys.
We're the pick of the bunch though, barring Berahino, WBA don't bring are that many youngsters through, and Swansea seem very much reliant overseas imports.
