All the new George Bests

they super hype one every "generation" united need to keep their one academy product in every team since whenever going, its the only "record" they've got left after we smashed them all :)

I wonder what other club's records are like?

You'd think up till the Premier League, a few teams would have had someone in the squad every match. The influx of foreign players, and extra money would have squeezed a lot out in the 90s, but given match day squads increased, it's now pretty easy to do.

I'm guessing Liverpool fans would have been "keen" enough to try and work out if they also had similar, but any idea what City's record is like?

Looking at the 90s, we still had a few regular starters from the Academy.

Does @Gary James have any idea?

Bebé, from a homeless shelter in Lisbon.

Joined the rags for 7 million.

Baconface masterclass, we were told.

Played for them twice then sent on loan, never to be seen again.

Scored a couple of blinders in the recent AFCoN though.

I didn’t realise Cleverly was in the management game until I saw the Leeds V Watford game last night. Should they not be declaring him the second coming of the GPC and should be in the thinking if Southgate turns them down.

He won't turn them down. Utd will be looking at other targets. Do keep up on the terminology, chum.

What’s Januzaj up to these days?

It would be easier to name those who haven't been ridiculously overhyped.

My favourite is Januzaj. This article remains unparalleled

Kevin Garside: Forget Wayne Rooney, Adnan Januzaj has the class to be

It might be that the England striker has peaked and that Sir Alex Ferguson recognised it

www.independent.co.uk

“The kid has a Pythagorean awareness of angles and dimension and a left foot that blends art with precision. With each game he plays, Januzaj lightens by increments Moyes' load by removing the urgency to resolve the Rooney conflict in a way that might be detrimental to United.”

Truly magnificent.

Mainoo as the new Seedorf has potential though.
