    Even Man U give breaks to young players who come through the club or into the club. Nick Powell was an unused substitute against us. The situation wasn't right to bring him on, but that he's there reflects that Fergie rates him very highly. It reflects well on the managers if they can bring young, homegrown talent into the team. A young talent given time to blossom can be groomed into a fantastic player. Only Chelsea and Man City have so many players and so much money that a really hot prospect can't make it through. Ht prospects are just thin on the ground.

    Yep Man City, Chelsea and I'd have to say Spurs are the main culprits. Or maybe it could be that Spurs youngsters tend to be pants.
