There was another youngster named Emmanuel who had good footwork and squandered a few chances. GK Charlie Hardy was also okay.

If we can get Lamb from City the U18 attack would be cool. Camacho will feed him well. I suspect those incoming City boys might dislodge Camacho from that AM position tho.

Shey dem don fully draft JJG to U-21 ni?

Oh, i forgot. Charlie Hardy was immense in goal. We signed him from Derby last year because we knew we were going to lose Darlington Osuchukwu.

The youngster is Emmanuel Ziro. To be honest i have not been too impressed by him in the lower age groups but he seems to have been active in this game. We will see how this season pans out for him.

Teddy Lamb was U-18 top scorer last season as well. Yes, Camacho, McEvoy, Shah, and Carrick might get their minutes diminished because those boys are really highly rated, but we will see how good they are when they are integrated. Anyways there is usually a lot of rotation at that level.

Pius Pius. Mr Burger.

Dorgu's poor first touch is a challenge. He is trying his best, but it is an obvious struggle sometimes for him to control fizzed balls.

Leyqute:
Yeah. City’s and Chelsea’s academy are also very good. Other clubs just have one or two talents in a class. I like how we’ve been getting these young talents as they near first team football.

Is the 4+4m on Tynan Thompson from Tottenham a good risk? 8m is very cheap if he develops into a very good first team player. But what are the chances.

Garnacho was also expensive. Thank God we still got some money out of him despite his unrealized potential.

The key point I think is we have to manage these youngsters well. We have to give them the best environment and opportunities to become a first team footballer, in another team if not in Man Utd.

I hope the rush they are rushing JJ Gabriel won’t affect his development like it did Shoretire. The hype is not helping the kid.

Afrodoc2

The hype is unreal but if you consider his performances and stats at that young age and you add his social media fame as Kid Messi even before he joined us years ago plus the fact that it is Ma Utd, nothing can be done to control the hype. Pure talent wise he is up there with the best talents we have produced in my time and probably all time. The question is if he will develop an EPL physique. That is where Dowman has the edge (similar technical level but far superior physical level).

The Tynan Thompson deal surprises me but the club scouts hopefully know something extra. He was Spurs 2nd best LW in their academy after Mikey Moore and overall, i am not even sure he was top 5 in terms of rating in their academy. Moore and Malachi Hardy were both better rated (although Hardy is a CB and we are covered in that position). Their best talent is a 17yr old named Luca Williams-Barnett but he is a CAM so don't need him as well.

Finally paying potentially 8m for Thompson means either we don't rate Noah Ajayi, or we expect to lose him soon.

Leyqute:
I don’t mind selling those youngsters so they can get minutes elsewhere. They should Sha insert a buyback clause so we don’t do another Garner.

Exactly. We should be doing as standard practice for the talented academic prospects when they leave.

The good thing is that i believe the academy will keep churning out better players than previous years because of the improved structure that has been put in place in terms of scouting and coaching. We no longer have a large cohort of low-quality players like players that came just after Rashford and before Gomes/Chong/Greenwood. Those were the dark ages.

Over the past few years only City and to an extent Chelsea can compare.

Leyqute:
This thread na rinse and repeat lol

LOL.

Meanwhile your boy Ashton Missin played for the Under-21s this weekend after nearly 20 months injury but had to be taken off injured again.
Some people's bad luck no be oju lasan.

CapitalCee:
Arsenal nearly bought that guy for £92m in 2017

Their money for burn. He has 11 league goals in 8 seasons. In the same period Mbappe has 22 World Cup goals.

Afrodoc2.

Doc. Should I buy the dip on Lacey. Or is it too early?

Buy and hold while it is still low.
Size and speed are concerns but there is growth potential.

Leyqute:
Shea Lacey has integrated well into the first team squad. Cant say the same for Harry Amass.

Harry Amass is most likely leaving. He has 1 year left on his contract and he is yet to sign an extension.

Who was that poster that used to argue that Thomas Lemar was better than Mbappe?

patrickmuf:
Afrodoc2, that McAidoo boy at City is special.

He is a bad boy. He moved from Chelsea to Man City a couple of years ago. He is the reason Mantato plays LB for England.

TrebleChamp:
If i state my desire to see Thwaites play some games this pre-season, agenda people will twist it like they did Sekou Kone case last transfer window. So let me not say anything....

Good. Don't say anything.

TemporaryHansel:
Did the woman divorce him and take half his wealth?

Would like to know the answer to this to understand the context properly....

What context will explain shooting 6 children?

Harry Amass appears to be leaving this summer. That likely means we will buy a new LB.

I hope we insert a buy back clause in Amass' contract just in case.

Theflint1:
The craiziest thing happened with one of my friends mother recently.

She and her husband travelled to the UK for their son's convocation ceremony, and while there, she said she had a dream where people came to her and were pressing her neck, saying "shebi she wants to start eating the fruit of her labour" and that they won't allow it, and in the dream she was begging them to show mercy and not kill her, while they continued to press her neck and beat her in the dream.

She wakes the next day and narrates the story to my friend, even sends him pictures showing marks on her body in the places where she was getting pressed. By the next day, she's ill, ambulance comes around and she's put in emergency, like play like play she's dead, all her organs just kept shutting down until she passed. Doctors said it was an autoimmune disease, that is the cells of her body were attacking themselves...don't know if they've done autopsy sha.

This is the first time I'm seeing something like this happen to someone I can trust to not embelish things, plus everything from the dream to her taking ill and passing happened in the UK.

CC Kingtom, Afrodoc2, abeg e get scientific explanation to this kin thing?

Abi na spiritual science dey play...whole thing just get as e take dey.

It is rare for an autoimmune disease to kill so quickly without prior illness. The marks on her body for instance might be a sign of the autoimmune disease because many of them have cutaneous (skin) manifestations. She also probably had other signs and symptoms of illness, but we often do not seek medical attention if things are not serious.

It is also worth remembering that autoimmune disease is an umbrella term for a broad spectrum of diseases that differ greatly in their presentation, morbidity and health consequences.

The people in the dream are not significant in my opinion. Correlation is not causality.

P1 don talk say I no be member of the Ororo appreciation society again.

Sounds incredible but amongst other things, Mourinho is the man that blamed Vini for being racially abused.

100% boss, Airlines like Ethiopian airline, Virgin Atlantic, Air France, fly Emirates, DHL, Air France, dey pack am steady.

Airline business has very low profit margins. It is not blood money at all. The cost of maintaining the business eats into most of the revenue.

My dad told me how he gave a carpenter money to make a mosquito net in the early 80s and the guy didnt do anything, he didnt even leave the area, we grew up seeing him daily. Na I go come today, I go come tomorrow till everyone taya and move on

I remember one carpenter growing up in the 80s that was notorious in our area. The guy might do your furniture halfway and start using it to host his friends and guests in his workshop. The only time he completes jobs is after enough threats and possible arrests.
