Which of our Youngsters will have the brightest season in '10?

How about at left wing?

Yup. I'd also be very interested to see if young Fabio could do a job out on left midfield/wing. The amount of goals he has scored from left back in his young career, and the skill he seemingly posseses indicates that he could (although whether at this level remains to be seen).

Fabio has enough quality to play centre midfield.

Welbeck.

of the rest i expect welbeck to make the fourth striker position his own. fabulous potential and seems to have a great attitude as well.

Saying that, i thought he was shite against Wigan!

Evans is going to world class.


For a 21 year to be so good at centre back it almost defies belief.

Id almost forgot to include Evans, since i think hes earned his spot in the team now.

This must be the first season in ages where realistically we dont NEED to sign anyone. If we do its just being greedy, no need for Valencia at all. obviously a big name signing is always welcome, and maybe an experienced playmaker on the cheap who can come in and change games when Scholes isnt available, but all Anderson needs is a goal and i think he'll be awesome.

Possibly. Although I can't help but feel our midfield lacks something now Scholes is fast becoming a shadow of his former self. Something I don't think anyone at the club currently can bring. I am hoping that Ljajic will be the man, but I think he will be starting as a wide player.

Worth remembering Hargreaves is back next season too.

Yep. Still doesn't bring what Scholes in his prime did, IMO.

Not many do though. We've been spoiled in that regard

3 named in Under 19 qualifiers, potential tournament this summer if we get through.

Think the original list should've omitted Ando tbh. He will improve but he's already established himself whereas the others haven't.

It's some list in any case!

Aye but if we are gonna play 3 centrally of Anderson, Hargreaves, Fletcher and Carrick I would really like to see Carrick more advanced as he could easily be getting 10-15 a year imo. If Anderson ever scores and settles infront of the goal there's no reason he couldn't do the same. The by the time Hargreaves knees have worn down to nothing Matt James could be pushing for a place. Can se Carrick having quite a long career due to his style of play too.
