We Want To Keep Our Young Players - Pressley

Coventry City manager Steven Pressley has said he wants to keep the younger players.

Pressley said at this morning's press conference to the Coventry Telegraph's Alan Poole and James Rodger: " "Borussia Dortmund went into the wilderness and came back after growing their own talent and the rest is history. The top clubs develop their own - Premier League football is not a good example.

"We want to keep our young players. We have to keep hold of them - otherwise, there's no point blooding them and developing them just to sell.

"We need the correct experienced players dotted around for the younger lads, too. Simeon Jackson is a fine example.

"The hardest part of my job is telling young players they aren't good enough for a contract. It's not easy."
