Lampard is the wise choice - Rooney is the wild card.

Are these boys offered Pro contracts like the Manchester City boys are?

Excited to see young Zidane coining through, such an entertaining player to watch.

I completely agree with you. The other local clubs seem to have better coverage of Acadamy / woman’s games and better - more informed / articulate pundits / commentators. I’ve recently had the privilege to suffer visiting people who were watching Liverpool and another City. I know grass is...

Jackson did very well, the only U16 on the pitch (not yet left school), defending against that first team player (Clark?), I thought Jackson did remarkably well, given the occasion and the maturity of the opposition. The rest of the players were U17&U18 full time boys, but saying that a lot...

anyone have team details?

Any news on the U18 Game? Think it was WBA away. I’m assuming they are keeping the age groups apart / bubbles to keep some training / games going on?

He was very talented and outstanding from an early age. I understand it’s been a challenge for him the past year - 18months. Good news about the 90mins.

I totally agree with you, new kids arrive with a fanfare reception, given lots of opportunities and experience the boys whom have been with the club for years don’t get. I thought it was due to cost. Hone grown boy from 9 years old is free, boy from another club is thousands / millions. They...

I’ve obviously not at the moment, but when things get back to normal do you know how to get tickets for the academy games (U16 and up)? On this point has any of these you tube / wonder kids ever made it big? I’m thinking over the past 10-15 years? I’ve seen a few “training” videos (some...

I noticed that about him in another game, seemed gutted another player scored, do they get goal bonus? Something about it seemed odd!

And we are just opening everything up again!

May be just good timing, our season is due to end in a few weeks, no one can go on holiday, I reckon he’s getting in some training / family time / sun/ sea / sand and will be back in the costa del Utd in sunny August for pre season.
