James McAtee

[AshtonBlue1980]

Has he signed a new contract already?

Not as far as I know - I think he had 18 months left so the clock is ticking - would hate to see him go to the rags or scousers- you just know it will come back to bite us on the bum repeatedly over the next ten / twelve years..

It was great to see James make his debut today...he is gonna be a very special player. Playing in such a brilliant team with other great ball players will suit his game perfectly.

Not sure 2 threads is a good idea but on the basis of this clip there's a case for moving him up from EDS status. I'll leave that with the mods that be.....



Loved the way at the end he retained his balance and composure and nearly nicked it back and went again!

Would of liked to of seen him for a bit longer 15/20 mins because he would of scored or assisted a goal. He could play that gundogan role just need pep to coach him in to how to.

Some exciting times ahead. When was the last time we had 3 local lads from the academy getting time in the same game?

Stockport, Wythenshawe and Salford.

Wish all our best talents didn't play in roughly the same position, any other position besides cb, he gets a much easier way through to first team regular.

Going to be difficult to get both him and Palmer chances. Kids got immense talent though and can't be allowed to leave, just show him Sancho and foden every single day and he would be mad not to be desperate to stay.

Clubs pays 100m for this kind of talent.

Offer him whatever he want & let him sign the contract.
