Yep, that's what I'm talking about too.

Januzaj was a great talent too, forgotten about. Dean Henderson. Jesse Lingard (who tbf is still a young talent)
They got kids like Pellestri and Garnacho who they signed at 18 which is what we really need to be doing.
Wasn't Pogba on their books as well? Let me know how many more names you want baby.
How many of our former academy/reserve players are in the league at the moment?
Kelly, Hoever, Neco, Sterling, Wilson and Canos?
Angel Gomes, who is now at Lille and played alongside Jones as one of the 2 midfield pivots in the U21 Euros was from Man Utd. Fulham's Pereira joined Man Utd at 16 yrs old from PSV too.
A couple of players moving on for decent fees can be very useful too. Hoever, Brewster, Wilson and Williams brought in ~ £66m.

Wilson and Sterling the only 2 I'd class as out and out Prem players.
Canos went on loan to Greece
Hoever went on loan to championship somewhere
Kelly is in the championship now.
Neco won't be long before he's in the championship either.
True
“talent”?????
So now I get hate when I praise English players?
WTF?!
Hardly hate… but yes… if you want to rubbish Carragher & Hendo and then praise Mason Holgate & Tom Davies!!!! then you deserve to have the living piss ripped out of you until such time as the universe stops expanding and collapses in on itself.
Hahaha
Eye sea wot ewe did they’re!!!
Apart from Rashford, all the Utd players mentioned on this page are/were shite. Bollocks argument.
I mean if you were following it wasn’t an argument to be had because we weren’t discussing players who became world stars. We’re establishing facts.
Utd v Liverpool last 20 years players that came through and played a part in their success. Utd won league titles or other trophies with players like Brown like O’Shea like Neville Evans Rashford Fletcher Beckham that other guy that’s currently suspended etc
We’ve had Trent and Jones….
This is facts, not an argument..
If you are going to include Neville & Beckham, then why have you excluded Fowler, Owen, Carragher & Gerrard? Oh, because it doesn't fit the narrative, fairy nuff.
Kaide Gordon is back running after 18 months out with a pelvic problem. Once touted as the best 16 year old in the country, do we see a way back for him? A rapid left-footed right winger. I suppose the dream is that he's Salah's heir.
I really hope so, but is he really that rapid. Didn't look like he was that quick the few times I saw him play
He has the touch of the Kieta Disease, and is destined to be a bit part player. I thought Polish Matt was going to break into the first team, I guess they think he is sh1t and is being offloaded to some 2nd rate team in Poland. Balaghazi, what's happened to him? If the likes or Ryan kent and Wilson could not make first team, what chance do these scrawny kids have?
No narrative being drawn here.
We can include or discount them.....you pick, the ratio still comes out more or less the same as I've left out names like Giggs and Butt.
Can foresee him haven't a decent career at mid level, floating between championship/league 1 maybe.
I'm sure I remember that was part of his hype train....
