It was his brother that was released by Utd, he plays for Scunthorpe now. Apparently when he was released their dad took James out of the Utd set up and moved him to City.

There are 4 young players that I have seen whilst still youth players that have the first requirement to be a top player. The 4 players are Paul Lake, Michael Johnson, Phil Foden + James McAtee
They all have great balance and the ability to create space when there is limited available. To make it to the very top requires graft, dedication and also luck.
There is always something special about talented left footed players in particular . City are truly fortunate thanks to Sheik Mansour that we are building and replenishing outstanding talent on a yearly basis.

I'd like to request the addition of Shaun Wright-Phillips and Jadon Sancho to that list.There are 4 young players that I have seen whilst still youth players that have the first requirement to be a top player. The 4 players are Paul Lake, Michael Johnson, Phil Foden + James McAtee

I suppose the difference between the 4 mentioned and SWP and Sancho is that they are City players from the start.I'd like to request the addition of Shaun Wright-Phillips and Jadon Sancho to that list.
SWP was 17 or 18 when he came from Forest and Sancho came from Watford, although he was very young (15)

Probably because he is local lad, from Urmston. But he played for Leeds/Crewe/Liverpool/Everton before City.Never knew that.
Always thought he was at City from when he was a kid.
He may even have played in an academy abroad, I wanna say PSV?
