No it isn't, the best place to learn is on the pitch playing with other professionals, not playing kids football in the mollycoddled Premier League, had he stayed at a lower league club not only would he have benefited from playing first team football, he'd have seen life in the real world to, cleaning his own boots, cold showers, early morning coach trips because the club couldn't afford overnight hotel stays etc all character building and hopefully it would make him realise how privileged he is when he finally made it into the big time
