Bonus points for Francis Jeffers responses.
ansu fati. What a player he would have been
Jack Wiltshire. He achieved a good standard. But could have had a much better career if it wasn’t for injuries
Tom Cleverly. Danny Welbeck.
Ravel Morrison.
Sir Alex Ferguson said he was the best teenage footballer he had ever seen. Even told Rooney, Ferdinand, and Giggs that he was better than them at that age.
Currently on his 14th club in 12 years, and has had a lot of trouble with the law.
I always thought James Wilson looked incredible in the academy. He had pace and could go with either foot but never quite happened for him but last time I knew he was at Port Vale.
Cole Palmer. Had such a bright future but wasted it all by going to a mid-table club. Now all he is good for is banging in pens against struggling oil clubs. Shame really.
Now that Mason Mount left Chelsea I can confess that….he wasn’t that good 🫢
Jack Wilshere could have been a one of a kind, world class player.
Injuries absolutely wrecked him and he had his share of problems off the pitch too it seems.
Was England’s best player too when he was fit and in -form I think he had a run of 8 games where he was motm in 6 of them.
Jack Wilshere. Dat guy knew to play ball. I remember that he ran midfield against Xaviniesta in ucl, forgot the exact year tho.
Despite the issues he had off the pitch, Dele Alli should be mentioned here. So much promise.
Hudson-Odoi.
He was looking at being an absolute world beater, I saw that boy absolutely ruin right backs lives at times but injuries and attitude seem to just kill him off.
Reece James is worrying me, maturity and injury prone seem to be big issues getting in the way of being potentially the best right back in the world.
Michael Johnson would’ve been fucking amazing if injuries hadn’t ruined his career.
Kristian Nemeth or Dani Pacheco
Weve had our share, but i guess some more recent ones would be the likes of Harry Wilson, Ben Woodburn, Jordan Ibe
We do sell many of our young players to other clubs before they make our first team , so it’s difficult .
Probably Jadon Sancho for me rn , unless he can resurrect his career away from United .
