Manchester United have this young Italian lad who everyone seems interested in, goes by Federico Macheda, oh...

Oh, and I guess not anymore but everyone should have watched out for Andrew Hall, you know, because of murders.

Anyway it as a very strange game. United dominated possession and scored three without ever really getting going but their defending was laughable.

Kinda just sounds like every United first team game this season.

:lol:Eddie Johnson and Santino Quaranta:lol:

It's amazing how many players on that list don't even have a wikipedia page, nearly everyone who's ever touched a football professionally has one.

I remember when Ryan Babel tore it up at youth level in the same tournament as Messi.

Actually, this is pretty interesting.

Man, what the gently caress happened to Collins John? He just had his contract terminated by Barnet.

and Aston Villa have the best academy side in Europe!

They'll probably just sell off the whole first team and play those guys in the Championship next season then.

The England Under-21s squad for the Euros has been announced:


Good to see McManaman get a chance to do some tasty dribbles on the international stage, and also good to see that future Norwich superstar Thomas 'The Tank' Lees keeps his place, even if Pearce loves inexplicably playing him in midfield like he did with Michael Mancienne. No call up for literal best left-back in England Sam Byram though. Not sure why Connor Wickham (2 goals in 18 games this season) is going but there you go.

Oh, he plays in Germany now. I wondered where he hosed off to.

Highlights of our U18 win are here - you'll see I wasn't exaggerating about Dembele. He's a year younger than most of the others out there too.

It was a thoroughly enjoyable match to watch. The movement and technical ability out there really put our senior team to shame :smith:

So last year Fulham had a Mousa Dembele and a Moussa Dembele on the books?

The Uruguay keeper is pretty drat awful. His positioning on the goal was ridiculous when everyone except him knew that the Iraqi player was gonna go for goal.
