"They [Leicester] beat Chelsea. I watched the game Wednesday night, team full of energy pace, they defend well, drop back and defend so hard to break them down and they’ve got the pace up front so it’s gonna be a tough challenge but we like challenges."

"... but where you put out from the start it’s more the defensive position, we want them to rotate, interchange, you’ve got to get into the box to score."

Afrodoc2, were you able to catch the u23 match today?
Levitt made his first start. There were a couple of other debutants too.
The team was basically the u18 team of last season, that McKenna was using to flog everybody. Word is that they played very well, even though they lost by a lone goal.
Be like them don chase all the average young adults out of the club either on loan or permanently.

afrodoc2:


Watched it. That Southampton team with older and bigger players parked the bus for 90mins.
Their coach Radhi Jaïdi should be ashamed.

George Tanner at RB was useless going forward, he is not going to make it here.
Williams at LB was quite good in both boxes even though he is right footed.
Our CBs can pass the ball but like i said earlier they are crap defenders.

Garner, Levitt, and Gomes bossed the midfield but struggled to really create chances.

Greenwood was not on form but he still created our best chances.
Chong didn’t have a good game, and he struggled with decision making.

PietroRick:
Levitt's time away from the spotlight Greenwood, Garner et all have seems to be coming to an end too.

Its a good thing our next manager is going to be someone that won't ignore youth for sure. Anyone we end up with between Pochettino and Ole (if he continues to impress) will be fine.
They are both guaranteed to give what we have coming from within a proper look in.

Worst case scenario we fill up squad spaces with some of these guys in the next 2-3 years, even if they don't develop to be World beaters and then only go out to break the bank for confirmed gems.


Nicky Butt deserves credit for the way he's running the academy.

Aside from a goal in our 4-2 win over Manchester City and an injury time winner against Arsenal last season, Fellaini’s biggest moments came in semi-finals. He scored against former club Everton at Wembley in our 2-1 win in 2016 that booked our place in the final, in the League Cup semi-final against Hull in 2017, as well as the Europa League semi-final against Celta Vigo. Given these are the only three trophies we’ve won since Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement, his role in our success should be recognised.

However, he wasn’t what you would typically imagine when thinking of ‘a United player’ and now that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is in charge, it feels like a turning point away from the approach of former three managers.

Still, United better hope that Ander Herrera or Nemanja Matic don’t pick up any injuries in the remaining months of the season, given how thin on the ground we are in this position. Maybe Solskjaer would rather given youngsters the opportunity, which is an admirable move, but one that doesn’t come without risk.

All the best, Marouane.

Afroman can look back on his time with and not have any regrets. I go Miss am sha.

Make we promote better prospect from how academy to take him spot.

Am glad Martial resign for five years but the rumored 250k seem a bit much.

LoRdCaT:
Dailymail said it's 200k

JayKayMaybachz:


Sky Says 250K

SIRcumalot:
Even 200 is still too high.
That is premium fee for a player who hasn't maintained a level of excellence that price commands.
