West Ham United academy boss Tony Carr is excited about the talent coming through their system.

He told whufc.com: "You can't predict these things. There may be a player that is quite ready but there may be an England international blocking his path so he may have to go along the route of getting his experience on loan at various clubs.

"You can never predict these things, all you do say is we feel as a whole in the Academy we've got players with great potential and it's up to us to make them realise that potential. I think we've had three through this year and three last year, which is a fantastic two years for the production line of the Academy. We mustn't be too greedy but we do feel that there are players in the Academy for the foreseeable future."
