My love and understanding of football were shaped by Portuguese players and coaches, especially those who have represented Manchester United. They’ve been some of the most professional, intelligent, dedicated, and selfless people I’ve known in football. They’ve done me no wrong
This page will forever extend grace to the Portuguese among United’s history.🇵🇹🇵🇹❤️
Anytime Milan needs a goal, Amorim makes 1 or 2 subs in the second half, and BOOM! They’ll score.
But at United all he had on the bench was defensive bums called players, and if he subs them in to try get a result, it becomes a problem for United fans.
Chido Obi is still stuck with the academy.
Diego León can barely get a start for the U21s.
Harry Amass has been around first-team pre-seasons since the Ten Hag era. Ethan Wheatley too.
Now Shea Lacey finally looks like he might genuinely break through and suddenly everyone wants to scream “Carrington pathway”.
What pathway?
Manchester United love selling the image of being an academy club, but how many youngsters actually become proper first-team players every season?
Training photos, pre-season minutes and bench appearances are not development.
If Carrington is really the heartbeat of this club, start proving it with actual opportunities.
