About 12 months ago I posted about Tahith Chong, sadly he sustained a bad injury. I understand he has now returned and some reports are saying they can see he has developed. He is at a key age when a young player can stand still or take a step. Keep an eye out for him.

I also think Angel Gomes and TFM are at the same stage and has just as much potential as the others.

I am very excited to see how Chong developers as a footballer. He has power and pace aligned to excellent technical skills. The lad is tall and once he fills out he will be of drogba proportions. I really really hope he fulfills his potential because if he does we will have an excellent player.

Yeh CSM his name is puigmal. Looks a player. We have some very good youngsters coming through. Need to show there is a chance of playing of making it here otherwise you will have a situation like Chelsea where youngsters have no chance. Having rashford, mctominay and Lingard is great to see.

The Ed said a few weeks ago that we have upped our game on the youth side, not just trying to make a profit on it. Separate to the Ed I have heard there have been some good appointments.

Puigmal is very highly rated, I posted an article on here about him a while ago and we seem to be strongly recruiting, another lad from Coventry was also signed this week. One small point is that I hope they are putting the same into local Manchester lads. Gomes interests us all and we all have high hopes. The next Ronaldo is likely out there, let’s hope we can find him.

Sad that you have no idea about what planning means and have the small mentality of wanting to try to score cheap points.

Huggy,

Reports seem to indicate Chong has developed physically as well, has pace and power. No guarantee of success but I always like to see them make as much as possible out of their careers, even if it isn’t with us. There are an awful lot of our graduates out there.

Ching scored 2 for the reserves the other day and puigmal recently signed his first senior contract. Everything seems to be moving in the right directionvunder Butty.
