The kids are alright

Dybala not on board yet as far as I know. Even if we sign him I think it’s unlikely he’ll figure in the first 2 games due to lack of pre-season. Think James or Greenwood will make the team for the first two matches.

Woohoo and whole 2 games out of 38

It's insane to see Pereira and Mata play while Gomes barely gets a look in. Hes better than the two of them put together.

Said many times, it never was about them being good enough for us or not, they arent in any shape or form worse than what we already have (seniors). When those older players full with their experience showing feck all on the pitch, surely those boys deserve a chance to get not only last 5 min but starts here or there.

Not only they can provide a spark at home, wake up a crowd, no fear, even when they make mistake, no one on the stands would be on their backs etc. They are on lower wages than first team players also, probably more hungry than some and they arent corrupted by the leeching rotten dickheads we have in the squad.

Nobody here wants them starting ahead of Ronaldo/Messi or tier below quality but instead of some pricks in our current squad? Hell yea.

Our inability to improve and develop further players we buy since SAF is not helping either. So can we drop age bullshit as a reason why some kid miss placed a pass, when 30 year old Matic does it, people just call him shit and nothing changes, still he will be starting next week. Rather watch Garner looking out of place in worst case scenario, at least there is a potential and hope that he will turn as predicted one day.

Yes 100%. Play the youth!

Plenty of quantity, but not too much quality, hence we’ve had to buy Maguire at CB. Take Pogba out of midfield and there’s not much left there either, as AC Milan showed tonight. Yes, we’ve got a good batch of kids coming through that should further develop with some game time this season, but we desperately need a DM at the very least. Huge risk to start many of the kids against Chelsea and Wolves.

I don’t believe we need a dm urgently because we have Fred, McTominay, and Garner who can do an excellent job in this position. Matic no doubt is the weak link but we have some quality in our current squad to replace him. People might say Garner is to young, but Pochettino has played Skipp who is as youthful as Garner.

I believe we have quality and quantity. In centerback, the good players are Smalling, Lindelof, and Tuanzebe. The average are Bailly and Jones. The bad is Rojo. We can’t have all 7 quality players. There would be dysfunction in the dressing room. Adding Maguire and that is four good center backs for two positions. Most club dream of having such depth. Plus the average cb has the potential to be good as well.

I don’t see it as a risk. They are performing well and I have confidence they will do well if some starts.

Lingard has come a long way now, the kid has to step up and put away his childish behavior if he wants to make it here. Hopefully this is his season!
Hehe

feck it, let's do it. Either we feck ourselves for a considerable amount of time or Ole turns out to be a genius and we bring through the Class of 92 2.0. Who doesn't love a gamble. Taking dumb risks is part of the fun.

We can't rush the youngsters into the team, every young player needs time too settle in and we can't expect Lingard to put in 10/10 performances every week at his age.

Far too much pressure to put on these kids. They’re our only hope for top four, unless by some miracle we end up with the best defence in the league and develop some crazy efficient strike-force.

Few of these younger players will play regularly. They aren't physically ready yet.That's the way it is with players of this age.The rigours of premier football is quite strenuous and
they would quickly burn out.
