    True, but to win both that and the U-20 in one year, odds are in your favour that some talent is going to come through.

    Arsenal had a disastrous AGM midweek and then the team go out and play like that, disgusting.

    Nobody will agree with me because nobody watches Arsenal but Seo Kolasinac was the Premier League deal of the summer. 3 goals, 2 assists from left-back, and nothing gets past him.

    certainly no excuse now, they have some talent coming through. I hear people saying that the English clubs need to give them playing time. It's not their job to do that. If the players really want to develop, maybe look outside the country for a period of time.

    U17 would have had they not lost the shootout.

    The FA have been trying to build up grass roots for years after the godawful decade we've had. This looks like the beginning of their efforts coming to bear, just make sure they've a great manager and keep that passion going.

    I don't like all these rumours of Everton sniffing around, can't see him leaving with him being a blade but money talks and Everton have it.

    Honestly Everton are a state, whoever takes over at this point is doomed to a summer sacking. Hope he stays put and manages to get Sheffield United up.

    Would be nice to go up, I was expecting mid table at best start of season so anything better is a bonus.

    If they signed Johnson they'd only have one.

    It's good to see an English manager being successful instead of whining he can't get a job because muh foreigners, but tbh the main reason I want utd to go up is for the Wednesday memes.

    Anyone see Salford Citys keeper got sent off for taking a piss behind the goal. Surely a yellow.

    Ones building a team the others built his, what's your point? Wenger in? If united aren't above Arsenal at the end of the season mou will also be a waste of space.

    Clueless trivia fact. United are yet to concede a goal at Old Trafford from open play this year. Not this season, the entire of 2017 until this point.
