Papers are photo shopping him in an England kit. Half of Yahoo's sport stories seem to be about him.

He's got like a 90 potential in FIFA 14.
Rosicky isn't going on the internationals! Thank God.
To be fair I'm nearly sure I remember reading the line, "The new Ryan Giggs" in the Sunday Times this week.
Right, I suppose that stupid owl Hodgson had something to do with that though.
What the fuck :lol.

Don't agree with this, United produce plenty of players, just not world class ones. And apart from Barca, what other top club can boast to have at least 3 players that have come from their youth team as a first team regular in the squad?

Think I said it in the OT, but Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is indeed shit and what I imagined a Marvel T.V series to be. Like, it's really really bad.
ElTopo, what are the chances that Mertesacker gets a rest? I don't know the CB options for the German national team, but he's playing in every one of our matches and I'm a bit worried.
Yeah, we need a reliable penalty taker.
Cerci is awesome, he fully deserves it
And I swear If we use Pirlo for 180 minutes again my head is going to explode
Madrid can, but they dont. Roma.
I hope Cerci gets some good minutes at the world cup next year. He totally deserves it.
YES! YES! YES!
I even mentioned his quality in that other thread in OT about Football not having much popularity in the US. Gio popped up with the goods.

As Timurid said Roma. Also Arsenal, Jake and Gibbs and hopefully soon to be Gnabry.
Also Bayern, they have Lahm and Bastian plus the whole of the Bundasliga is just the Bayern youth team.

We bought Gnabry a year ago from Stuttgart. Not sure that counts.

But he was playing with the youth/reserves before this season.
Yurt, he was first in Europe until the weekend and now down to third, he did not do much creating at the weekend, just finishing
.Prandelli just said that he will call him if he is still fit and in form around May. It all will come down to will Totti have the hunger to play. We definitely need his creativity around the box. Imagine him playing behind the likes of Balo, Shaz and Rossi. They would score tons and we would walkthrough the tournament. even if he is 80% fit, i would much rather him as the playmaker than Monto, that useless shite.

Sounds like a Luton thing rather than an England thing
@anyone who has a HSBC e-ISA, is £5,000 the limit per year to pay into it?
Do I laugh at this. Or do I cry at the fact they beat us to that trophy at our own place.

Bundesliga is miles ahead of other leagues in terms of their youth set-ups. Man Utd have Welbeck, Evans, Cleverly etc in their first team squads. Just because Januzaj is the only current player from the youth squad making the step-up to the first team, doesn't mean the set-up United have is terrible or flawed.

Luton is trashy, that is true. Despicable excuse for a town.
Still, all my family is over in Hungary and that realization you're back to nothing (bar work and friends) sucks.
Gonna go back earlier next year.
Did keep tabs on the footy though (apart from yesterday's results which made me laugh Spurs-wise).

Really??? I like him, but he is injury prone and pushing on. I guess it is good that he is an experienced player.
Sagna is a must, it is fucking disgraceful that he has less than 12 months on his contract, how the fuck do we get ourselves in this situation??????????????????????

In today's market, having one or two youth players making it as a first-11 player at a top English club is a big success. I think McLaughlin is nearly a certainty to make it at Liverpool unless his head is turned, and Sterling/Ibe should be in and around the first team for as long as they're here. Kelly...fuck knows. I have a bad feeling that Suso will play okay when he comes back, but fail to score the goals or get the assists that are necessary to hold down a place in our attack, and end up leaving in summer 2015 (#Nostradamus)
We also have this lad called Rossiter who by all accounts is displaying ability well beyond his years, but I haven't seen him play myself. Sterling and Ibe to be fair were bought in by the club when their potential was alrady clear, so half the credit at least should go to QPR and Wycombe respectively.
If we can go into say 2017 with 2 youth players in the first 11, and 3 more being in the regular squad, without dropping in the table, that'd be okay I think
I can..
The look in his eyes.

My point is the 3 biggest clubs in England (arsenal, Liverpool and United) should, due to their status and catchment size, produce a stream of top english and some foreign youth players. There should be generations and nuclei of groups of english players coming through, not one Belgian Waffle.
Where are the next generation of scholes, giggs, Beckham, Butt, Neville etc...
I can see it at Arsenal and Liverpool, not at United. Not saying they don't produce good players, KidA admirably keeps us informed of the goings on in the reserves etc. but it's pretty clear summat is different at Untied compared to the two other english giants.
Not flawed, just not as efficient or productive as it should be.

Why do I love him? Is it his looks? Is it the fact that Roma have the best kit in the world? Is it his loyalty? Does supporting Suarez just make one accept such cuntitude? My reaction to that gif should be 'what an absolute twat.' Instead, it was 'lol'
I always find it weird when people go on about the likes of Giggs and Xavi being loyal when they've been winning things constantly, while Totti is overlooked
Link pls.
Yes.

I lol'd too, so it's defiantly not having a cunt that makes you love cunts cause we ain't got any cunts at Manchester.

Arsenal have some really exciting young players at the moment.
Bellerin, Toral, Olsson, Zelalem, Gnabry, Akpom, Crawley (sorry Wes) and so much more. Players that definity can progress to the first team. There is a lack of young promising CBs which is a concern, as that is the area we need strengthening the most.

Sounds like Beyond is in for a rough ride when the reviews hit. Oh well, still day one for me.
Think I'm stuck on Bioshock 2. Have a battle with a Big Sister, my objective is to kill 2 Big Daddies afterward (complete with 2x2 Little Sister protection sequences), got no ammo, no money and no first aid kits. Oh, and there are strong splicers all over the place.
Gonna have to turn it to easy if I'm allowed, or watch the rest of it through a Let's Play

A Benedict Arnold.
Best £5m ever.
Are you in your first season? I bought him for like 800,000 pounds.
You've been such a sad cunt since yesterday lol.
