Have we got any left?

No.

Terry Puycel looks a fabolous player. Should walk into our midfield next season, he's exactly what we need

Ravvers - earning £60k a week at whu
Pogba - £#%&!ed off to juve
Norwood - £#%&!ed off to coventry
Fryers - £#%&!ing off to newcaste/spurs
Matt James - £#%&!ed off to leicester
W.Keane - knee shattered, out for 9 mths

the jinxed generation.

Something seriously disturbing about a 19 year old #@&%! like ravvers earning £60k a week.

Considering he was one of the worlds greatest young talents I'd say he's worth every penny of that fee. How's he getting on at West Ham?

First sign of a club in decline is the inability to hold on to their promising youngsters.

Makes you wonder what they've seen to convince them to flee like rats on a sinking ship?

Phelan's immaculately waxed and moisturused ballsack would be my guess.

under 19's "come on boss can we do some boxes or anything related to football today"
micky p. "one last game of hide and seek inside carrington and I promise that tomorrow I'll get the balls out"

Is Tunnicliffe still here?

Along with Pogba and Morrison, it was his name that was always being mentioned as a certain first teamer.

Not good enough I wouldn't think tbh.

tuncliffe is average. The only one who looks like he could make the step up is cole.

the best he'll manage is squad player if he's lucky. it's always hard to tell with the youngsters how far them doing well is due to their physical development being a bit ahead of their peers and i think tunnicliffe is an example of that. he's not bad but he's not really kicking on from what i've seen. i'd love to see petrucci promoted and given time. injuries have set him back but he's definitely got a chance.

there's plenty of talent coming through with a chance: amos, petrucci, cole, king, brady, thorpe, both keanes, fornasier, vermijl, fryers, veseli, cofie, blackett, daehli, van velzen, barmby... just have to see how they develop.

Is that true about Keane? Froggles was talking about him for the 1st team wasn't he?

so we're now adding a load of new names to some of the old names that have managed to hang to prove we've got a strong future with youth players?

That he's done his ACL? Yes, playing for England.

we've had the twins, evans, cleverley and welbeck in or around the side last/this year, fryers, keane and cole knocking on the door. where do you think they came from? some £#%&! up, like morrison, some don't make it, like james, and some £#%&! off, like pogba. so what? it's normal.

expectations are daft with regard to the kids. if you get one or two breaking through in any given year then you've done exceptionally well. how many have come through for arsenal, chelsea, city etc last year? fact is, we're doing very well in terms of progressing kids through to the first team, it's something we should be proud of imo. probably only a few of those names will ever make it to the first-team squad, but so what? it's absolutely normal.

Bit of a stretch to chalk the twins up as one for our youth system tbf.

Not much more so than Pogba is it? they joined at 18, he did at 17 I think.

maybe. they were bought, but they went into the reserves first and didn't get into the first-team squad for 18 months.
