The future of Uniteds forward line.

Manucho and Welbeck, linked rather well I thought. I had to agree with summat Mark Lawrenson said on MOTD, United are quietly bringing through some rather good looking young players, what with those two, Rafael, Possebon and Evans. good news.

Not sure you could say we've brought Manucho through

Or Possebon

I s'pose if you wanna be fairly pedantic about it.

Can't see anyone of them making it.

Me neither. Another hopeless false dawn on the highway of inevitable doom which United are hurtling along.

Hardly pedantic Bedders

In what way have we brought Manucho or Possebon through - by buying them and then playing them?

They're all shit compared to Arsenals

Isn't that how Wenger "brings them through" though?

Ive been welbeck's biggest fan for ages, after seeing him rip the reserves to shreds...

As he stormed through to hit that 35 yard screamer i said to those around me...

"What.....He's only going to hit it."

As it busted the back of the net, i felt proud......like a dad at the nativity play....

I'm just saying we are without a lot of fanfare bringing some younger players into the side at the moment and they are looking good. Don't wanna get bogged down in some discussion of how we've done it really. Ok Manucho is hardly the youngest. Just thought it was summat positive.

Sorry but that goal was more hit and hope than anything. He looked like he was about to fall over.
Put it down as a cross/shot.

I think he was actually trying to pass it out wide. £#%&!ing useless.

Manucho is 26...should be reaching the peak of his career FFS!

Yes but his career is young. he looked like a player at least on Satdee, nice first touch a coupla times and got in decent positions in the box.

EDIT: He's 25 in fact.

Is he? Do you think he'll learn how to kick a ball soon? Or run?

Harsh, he kicked it to Welbeck for the goal.

If they're good looking will they be like Giggsy and Sharpey were back in the early 90's with loads of female admirers?

Well Manucho certainly has a rather pleasing countenance i'd say.

Darron Gibson is a looker.

I think he looks a good player too. Nice little cameo on sat. Dunlop hates him.

He's got a bagfull of talent, not sure if he has the desire, can seem very lazy when i've seen him.
