Prodigal7's latest activity

  • It might not have anything to do with a Cox or the Adidas cup but academy coaching definitely is part of it. Rashfords decision making and mentality especially are poor and the academy he spent his years developing at has to take a lot of...
  • He’s clearly got a lot of natural talent but he’s unable to apply it for a number of reasons. All of which can be linked to coaching.
  • The point is that he can’t just stop immediately. Southampton could legally enforce the contract and make him work for another 12 months if they want to. You specify a leave date to acknowledge the terms of your own contract. Wilcox can’t say...
  • You’re confusing yourself. A notice period is written into an employment contract. When you resign you have no choice but to work off the notice period in the contract. Or your employer may place you on gardening leave to cover the notice period.
  • I’m unsure on Cox. We need to do better than Rashford and Mctominay. Mainoo is very promising but we should be on par with Barca and Real in terms of the number and quality of players we produce. It has to be said that players like Foden, Palmer...
  • If you want to live stream an u12 game I don’t know why participating clubs would want to name their players at that age. I don’t believe that United actively want to do that.
  • I’ve been critical of our coaching at younger levels before but this was really encouraging. I especially like the way they are emphasising the off the ball game at a young age with every players pressing and duelling hard to get the ball back...
  • I’m not sure. They’re definitely better drilled in team plays but our defenders and especially our number 8 look as good as anyone technically. Very good at winning the ball back as well.
  • Yeah they should be incredibly proud of themselves.
  • I think we got tired in the second part of each half. We are very high energy in our play.
  • Half time 0-0. Very good even game of football.
  • Real Madrid and Barcelona have seldom won by less than 5-0 at this level. They are effectively a duopoly over talent at this level and coach teams to win from an early age. Just a warning to anyone if things go a bit awry tomorrow. Not that I’d...
  • It’s not just his s height though. He looks really technically good and a quick thinker
  • Prodigal7 replied to the thread Jack Fletcher.
    Gribbins problems was all mentality. I think Giggs mentioned he was one of the most talented players to ever come through the academy, he just couldn’t get his head together.
  • Prodigal7 replied to the thread Jack Fletcher.
    Yeah agree Jack looks a little better at the moment. I’d like to see Jack further back in a busquets type role which he played previously, rather than the attacking midfielder we’ve turned him into though. I’m hoping he’s only playing as an...
