Anyone know much about this lad? Former City but currently training with Salford City. Interesting to see if this is the start of a partnership given who owns Salford.

 

[khoazany]

Why should there be a thread about a trialist?

And no.Only know he's a City rejected.

Signed.

Phill is not impressed in the third photo.

 

[Lash]

haha, Neville Neville at the end doing the same look

 

[Ish]

We acted quick, on the advice of Scholes & co

 

[Classical Mechanic]

Meh. An 18 month contract says that he is the definition of a punt.

Just adding numbers to the U21s I think.

 

[Decotron]

Hopefully he turns out better than Vesili did

 

[Mister_Stubbs]

Forgive me if I don't get to excited.

 

[khoazany]

We have more than enough right back at that level.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

He's a 20 year old kid whose career evidently stalled but seems to have got his shit together at Salford and must have impressed on trial. Obviously a punt but no reason to assume he's shite or won't add anything useful to the squad. Miserable bastards.

There has previously been good players that dropped out of one academy, only to go on and excel at a different club.

 

[MUFC07]

Why, when we sign these U-21 players, are they always right backs, or full backs for that matter? We signed Varela, Janko, that boy we snatched from City (not this one obviously) who I think was a RB or at least a defender. De Laet was also a full back. What is it with us and young fullbacks?

 

[Mr Anderson]

We have more than enough right back at that level.

Vermilj on way out. Quick replacement by the sounds of it

Vermijl never played RB for us this year.We have Janko,Love,Grimshaw and Callum Evans all can play RB.McNair could play there as well if needed.

 

[Sparky Rhiwabon]

Lol, I've already seen this joke on Twitter. Very amusing the first time!

Who out of interest are you referring to.

 

[Ekeke]

Expecting him to be exactly the same

 

[Member 39557]

With the recent record of our current defenders, if he makes it to the first team he'll be nicknamed
Sadiq Un-Fitouri

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Tom Ince would be one.

 

[Classical Mechanic]

Tom Ince would be one.

He was released and went into non league?

 

[Solius]

Hopefully he turns out better than Vesili did

That's a blast from the past.

 

[Classical Mechanic]

That's a blast from the past.

I looked up Veseli after reading about this guy. He is getting games in League One with Port Vale, 18 so far this season. He is on loan from Ipswich, he was on loan in League Two last season so he is progressing.

Edit: seems that he has joined Port Vale permanently recently.

I just did the same in another tab

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Was hot property at one point.

Anyway, the most obvious City academy to United academy success story is our assistant manager!

I don't hold out much hope for this guy. If he made to a squad player here it would be an incredible story.

 

[GloryHunter07]

Perhaps one of them is being moved up?

John O'Shea is one (sort of). Rejected by Liverpool.

 

[NotoriousISSY]

Wasn't there another one recently...Veseli?

 

[limerickcitykid]

Perhaps one of them is being moved up?

Up to the first team? Not a chance.

 

[Skizzo]

Wasn't there another one recently...Veseli?

Hmm. No. Don't think so. You might be getting confused.

 

[khoazany]

No one is ready.

Giggs played for City for a few months as a 14/15 year old before Academies were introduced. He was never officially a City player and signed no contract. I'd hardly give City any credit for his development nor say he was there long enough to warrant being called a City youth player.

If you use that criteria you could add a list of names to our Academy...

Absolutely…even from United you could add David Platt, Robbie Savage, Alan McLoughlin, David Johnson, David Healy, Ron-Robert Zieler, Peter O'Sullivan.

 

[MTR]

Hmm. No. Don't think so. You might be getting confused.

Erm? We snapped Veseli from City's rejects list.

 

[Sir A1ex]

Ha, up yours Salford City, nothing but our feeder club!

 

[Skizzo]

Erm? We snapped Veseli from City's rejects list.

Yes, I know I was just making a sarcastic (read: im a bit of a cnut) comment since he asked if there was another one recently...as if it hadn't already been mentioned 5 times above him.

 

[shabz]

God knows we need some young players to hopefully take opportunities given to them, and at right back especially and hopefully he continues to impress. Seems that we are breeding a generation of young talents who do not fulfill their potential. Considering we had the likes of Brown, the Neville's and O'Shea come through and be regulars in our defence.

 

[FromTheBench]

For those asking earlier -

Chris Smalling left Milwall's academy for Maidstone no ?

Then joined Fulham as a 19 year old.

 

[Spoony]

Peter Beardsley?
