Tracking runners, marshalling out for goal kicks, patience on the ball, tracking players and not all ball chasing. For that age group they are already a million miles ahead of where other kids will be. Playing football the right way but also playing with that wisdom - not diving in etc that normally doesn't come until players have chalked up a few years at senior level.
Can City win the World Cup in 2022? These kids will be around 18-20years old and may well be stars by then.

I know people get downhearted that our academy project hasn't already produced elite players but it's those that are coming through in 5 years or more than will show the fruits of our labour.
I’m a new account here so scrolled to the bottom of some of these threads to see what I could unearth. Seems this was quite a prediction, this is the group who won the PL2 last year, Harwood Bellis, Palmer, McAtee, Fiorini and Hodge all can be spotted in the video. You can tell the style of football has been coached right through and that them dominating teams at that young age didn’t slow down.These are the ones that are going to be our real academy stars, who've had years of the best development we can possibly provide in our own style.
