What if the Premiership clubs could only use players they developed?

Interesting idea, but given the rules you've picked a pretty poor Aberdeen team. I would go:

Bain

O'Donnell Shaughnessy McKenna Considine

Ferguson McLean

McLennan Wright Fraser

Maguire

If It's Kenny McLean and Lewis Ferguson i've already put them in the teams they came through?

Kenny McLean started at Aberdeen before he went to Rangers.

I misread rule 3 though, so that would disqualify Ferguson. In which case I'd rather play with 10 men than have the snake play.

Actually, for the sake of getting bumped up a bit we'll have to go with Jack. Although I am typing this team whilst gritting my teeth. Also remembered another one:

Bain

O'Donnell Shaughnessy McKenna Considine

Jack McLean

McLennan Wright Fraser

Maguire

 

Edit: Took McNaughton out, just realised we're rating players on current ability. Should really read things properly first. To be fair he's probably still quicker than Considine.

I usually just do individual scouting reports but decided to try and rank the clubs if they could only use players they had developed. 

Also why do no teams seem to produce any goalkeepers?

Queen's Park signed Neil Parry when he was 26...? Not sure he meets your criteria?

It's an interesting list none the less, though would be more informative (IMO) if you ruled out transfers post 15/16 and it was a genuine list of youth products. Scott Bain and Joe Shaughnessy both joined Aberdeen at the age of turning Pro, Bain from Leith Athletic, and Joe from an Irish boys club. Whereas Considine's been with Aberdeen not far off 20 years now, if time at youth level counted.

I know, sure he can step up into a left wing back role for these purposes

Would Marcus Maddison qualify for Saints under the criteria?

Signed for us at 19 having never played for Newcastle.

I did wonder about him and Fisayo Adarabioyo but they were there for such a short time and left it didnt seem fair

That nearly as embarrassing as Celtic trying to claim Andy Robertson as a product of their youth system a couple of weeks ago! :lol:
