Ebony Salmon is an amazing name.

I don’t follow the women’s game but I’m interested in watching our team. Who are the noteable names here? Anything interesting?

Welcome to Manchester reception committee
Very pleased to see those lists. Particularly a nice statement of intent to see United rounding up some of their old youth team players like Katie Zelem who has come back from Juventus and some local rising stars like Ella Toone (who's only 18) and who has already played in City's first team.

Good to see the youth also being signed up along with experienced players.

I knew a lot of them were our juniors. I hadn't realised quite how many until today. It's more or less exactly what I hoped would happen. Really pleased to see it and really glad that they wanted to come back.

Interesting to read that Lauren James(16) is the sister of Chelsea's Youth Cup winning Captain Reece who is a phenomenal young player, mmmm, you don't think....
It's a curious one, seeing a player, particularly one that young, moving up from London this early in the life of the United team. She's very much a rising star as well, so the football bug obviously runs strongly in the family.

Seven from Liverpool eh, maybe that's why the arranged friendly between the two teams is behind closed doors :lol:

I hadn't realised that he'd been loaned to Wigan - weirdly just as Reece James was leaving them to join Sunderland, that's just too strange.

I can see why the United move would work for the family.
Wigan must like the name :D

Looking at her picture she certainly looks like she'll be a strong player like he is. Hopefully she has similar technical ability too.

Some of the replies on the tweets are horrendous.

Expected unfortunately, but revolting. Hope the players have their social media accounts on blackout for a week. Some people are scum.

I know none of them (or any others for that matter) but can't wait to see them in action.

Would of been nice of the club to give their ages as well. Too many players to google every one of them.

Ignore that, just seen the OGM article @jojojo posted.
