Which two and when diego. I can only see the fonz who was already debuted by Van Gaal having an appearance for you lot. You can't count rashford or lingard as England internationals before mourinho even arrived either.
I was counting Rashford and Big Tim since they were in the U23 squad until promoted to the first team squad by Maureen Lingard has been part of the first team squad for about 3 years. Jose has also promoted Sam Johnstone and Axel Tuanzebe to the first team squad, both have been on the bench but not played yet.
Oh God.... Do I need tell him Lads? Seriously. Fonsy mental played 8 games last year. Your manager tried to loan him out but luckily for you failed Scabby rash played 18 and scored 8 last year... and a full engurlund international if he was in your u23s it's cos mourinho put him back there. Also Sam Johnstone is 23, was on your bench under van gaal and has played 82 league matches..... so... no... You've a toal of one guy then.. who never got a look in then... Right... Mourinho defender of Youth!
Rashford and Fosu-Mensah, reserve (u21 now U23) squad now promoted to first team squad. Johnstone, reserve ( U21 now U23) squad now promoted to first team squad (has played league football while on loan at several different clubs). Oh, Borthwick-Jackson and Andreas Pereira have now also been officially promoted to first team squad (U21 now U23 last season), pretty sure both played in pre-season since someone brought that into it.
All promoted and played last year under van gaal. Wow like. At least I can point to 3 guys klopp genuinely took to firsts even though the rest of our u23s are pretty average. Ejaria is stolen from arsenal. Stewart though average was given a house. Again stolen from spurs. Woodburn is just 17 Ojo was debuted by rogers but looked awful at thag time. I won't claim him unlike you Alexander Arnold was debuted by klopp SERIOUSLY....
I am talking about players who have been named in the first team squad (and have come through the ranks), not someone who has had the odd opportunity. We could play a load of kids in the League cup (we have done it before), would that make them first team squad members?
So Rashford wasn't named in the first team squad when he scored 2 v Arsenal on his Prem debut last year... or when he scored against City. How can you claim Mourinho promoted him to the first team when he was in the team last year and subsequently went to the Euros?
You do realise a manager can pick a 16 year old to play in a first team game any time he wants to but that doesn't make the 16 yo part of the first team squad? I agree about my team though, can't believe some of the **** ahead of us
The script has changed mate. 4 months ago it was the end for Rashford and Lingard and all our youth players. Now Jose's put paid that load of bollox (and their own manager has shipped out all their youth players ) apparently we're splitting hairs about him actually giving them a chance at all There does seem to be an unhealthy infatuation with all things Mourinho on this board. Anyone would think he'd caused them a lot of pain over the years... but it "slips" my memory at the moment
I expected better from you Trebs, I have been trying to educate them for the last two years that piss poor control of a rolled pass caused that slip so it was no accident, just a poor player (Big Tim and Rashford have both signed new contracts recently, obviously not wanted )
So the fact he was in the squad.. for the first team on 16 occasions doesn't reman that he was in the first team squad. Gotcha, makes perfect sense I suppose even though Liverpool are in the table of the English premier league, they somehow aren't in the English premier league table by your logic as well right. Or I have a house, that I own.. but I'm not a home owner. Or a man who fishes.. . But isn't a fisherman
Go and have a look at your own official first team squad then come back and tell me why Ejaria and Woodburn aren't in it when they have played first team football
I doubt Bis even knows the point of what he's arguing about. When you get so wrapped up in arguing for the point of it, the actual point gets forgotten. Rashford and Lingard have spoiled the script Diego. How dare they be playing under Mourinho. They just can't square that myth, so **** knows what they're banging on about now
Dear oh dear all poor deigo as is guys named on the man utd website as first team to point too Two guys who played last year one reserve keeper who was in squad and allpoor deigo can do is point at how some nob finally got round to moving them from one page to the other. Best of luck with that one. We all knew youth has **** all chance under maureen.
