United and City are pillaging the French youf teams at the moment. We've both signed 2 kids in the last couple of days and more are coming on trial.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

Broxbourne have got a really good setup with a shitload of Football and Cricket teams and great facilities. Heaps of their kids get poached by Spurs.

The horses better watch out.


Can we have him?

United u23s with a well deserved 1-0 win over Pool. Really bitched them and should have won by more. The Fergie time winner was sweet tho.

Sean Goss heading to QPR, possibly permanently. Joe Riley off to Sheffield United on loan.

hope the higher ups at city see this. sometimes a bit of trust goes a long way. instead of trusting a bunch of 30+ year olds to not get outrun by a teenager or two.

Everton are top of the U23s table so their youf are going well at the minute.

3-1 win over pool in the fa youth cup. from the sounds of it it was pretty easy. pool learning for the 7-0 battering a couple of months ago and sitting deeper. still picked apart by brahim and sancho

Interesting that we were only obliged to pay £30k or so under EPPP rules but agreed to pay more.

Done that a few times now, probs trying to keep on good terms with the academies we deal with.

Yeah that's an interesting one as Pochettino actually seems to rate him and prior to this window he didn't like to send the talented youth players out on loan. He came off the bench against Liverpool in the EFL Cup. This might be the first example of him reportedly softening his stance on loans for the youth players.

Anyway, hopefully he goes well. He scores for fun at PL2 level so hopefully he can replicate that in League 2.

Think these younger ones who are some way off being in the first team squad would be OK to loan out. Just need to find a club with good coaches so they don't waste away there

Spurs have a history of loaning players to Yeovil and Leyton Orient.

Angel di Gomes scores a nice goal.
United youf 1-0 Everton

 

[Magma]

went to wolves and won 5-2, sancho hat trick and gonzalez brace. utd drew with everton so we're now 9 points clear and massive goal difference.

Pep reopens the debate on PL2. Certainly why Harrison has just been loaned and we should have another couple do so by the end of the window.

He said: "I'm not here to change absolutely anything but I think the second league for the young players is not good enough.
"The consistency is not physically strong. They compete in these second teams but it is not a good league.
"In Spain the second teams in Barcelona and Madrid play in front of 40 or 45,000 people in Barcelona, Madrid. Here they play with no spectators.
"It's not strong enough. That's why it's so difficult for the English people sometimes at big clubs like City. That for me is the real problem.
"I love to work with the young people because of their passion; their intensity is higher, they want to build their own career. It's much easier but I have to see when they are able to do that.
"I think it's a real problem for English football, if you accept my opinion. I think the quality of the young players is there and if you have the quality, you can play wherever but [you need] to feel the pressure.
"Why cannot we create Man City or Man Utd second team and not play in the Championship against Newcastle? Playing in front of these huge [crowds]. That is the future of English football.''

Swindon the other one.
