Good luck to the lad but I don't know how much he'll play there

I'm not too sure about that. Any other top six side then I'd agree his chances might be limited but MU are a club in crisis and it needs an overhaul.
Good luck to the lad :thumbup:
Re: Dan James to Man Utd?
Another James - Rodriguez looks like he is leaving Bayern, can see him going to someone like man u or Spurs if they lose Eikson

Napoli, apparently. Ancelotti is manager, and he played his best football under him at Real.
Re: Dan James to Man Utd?
Wouldn't he be the first Welsh International for Man Utd since Giggsy? Although, I understand Dan James is from Yorkshire.

Shows how profitable a well run Cat 1 Academy is at developing young players, reported fee of £18m. It’s imperative that we get a Cat 1 Academy up and running ASAP to find the next Bale or Ramsey?

Tom Lawrence was the last. His debut was handed to him by Giggs.

Shows how well signing a player from Hull at 17 and sticking him in the U23s.

Good job our academy didn't produce Matondo and Ramsey then, isn't it. :hehe:
In all seriousness, it would be great to get a Cat 1 academy but the top clubs are still going to hoover up the players one way or another.

Hull only get 5% of a sell on - that's mighty good business by the jacks - will depend on where the money goes however...

My understanding is you can’t take a player from a Cat 1 Academy only a lower Academy so Man City could’ve pinched Matondo and we’d have pocketed 10m instead of 400k? And Ramsey was our last top class Academy player and that was about 12 years ago!

Agreed that’s what we did with Ralls but he’s been the only success we’ve had in the last 12years! We need a better team of scouts?

Yeah must be a strange time for him. Signing for a massive club but his dad not being there to see it, heartbreaking. Hope he smashes it at Man Utd

I totally agree
Re: Dan James to Man Utd?
Yes Joe Ralls joined our Academy from Farnborough as a teenager for a pittance but unlike James he hasn’t got a Welsh father from Aberdare so can’t play for Wales.
Re: Dan James to Man Utd?
I still have doubts over Ole but hopefully it really works out.
