I've an idea. Let's have a thread about James McAtee

I understand his dad is an ex professional player so I’m sure he will be a big influence.

His Dad played Rugby League for St Helens.

Would love to see him (or Delap) start in the fa cup for us (if not before).

Delap out for the foreseeable future sadly and has been injured all season. I’m pretty sure McAtee will start the 3rd round.

Enjoyed that.

Even if we do draw a top team, wouldn’t be surprised to see him starting.

He is developing brilliantly,i'm noticing a bit more edge/substance to his performances recently.He may not be physically imposing but there is plenty of steel and character in that frame,and the extra confidence he is quickly gaining is bringing that side out of him.

As above,i think youth football is wasteful now,he needs the extra challenge as im convinced it will elevate him further.

Be nice to see him and palmer get some time against leipzig.

 

[Smiless]

My first time watching him live the other day. Love how fearless he is with the ball, just goes for it. Hope we can hold onto him. Have a feeling he's going to move on.

 

[Tevez City]

The best player in the academy.

We need to tie this lad down. The rags will be sniffing very soon.

So many clubs around Europe will be well aware of his potential. It's great to see him training now with the first team and he has some of the world's best footballers to learn from.

He was rumoured to be going on loan to Swansea once the deal was signed, so the football journo has been keeping tabs and updates since that story started..

great to see mcatee keep kicking on and getting a chance but I really like oscar bobb too. think he just needs to kick on as well.

Did he sign a new contract? I scrolled a few pages back but haven't seen any confirmation.
