For what it's worth, Ben Sheaf probably West Hams best youngster will be coming up to Carrington very soon. He is very highly rated, don't know much about him apart from he's about 15, plays in midfield and is considered one of the best youngsters if not the best youngster in that age group for the England team. Just though is post for anyone interested, I know he's just a kid but all things united related and that.

Interesting, but I believe Chris Willock is the highest rated in that age group. We have his brother here playing for our u18s already and it wouldn't surprise me if we were after him too.

Coming up to Carrington as in joining the academy?

MU want Gauld too apparently. Pearson, Goss & Perreira already here. I would have liked to see Pearson get a couple games this season. Perhaps we will see him preseason.

Supa, are you saying he is joining the MU academy or that he is traveling up with the West Ham United U18's to play MU U18's? I assume you mean he's joining the MU academy?

Joining the academy syd, it's not done and dusted but over the next week or 2 he is coming up to Carrington. The parents are letting an agent do what's best by the lad rather than be too interfering and it's felt that Carrington will probably be the best destination for him apparently.

Thanks for that Supasub, I know its not typical transfer stuff but this is what United are all about and please post more academy stuff if you hear about it. Also, don't forget Rothwell Syd, I've a feeling he'll be as much of a standout if not more than Pearson once he hits a purple patch. Injuries have really hurt him but he's at least as big a talent as Pearson IMO.

Thanks prodigal, I get snippets from time to time off someone I've known for a long time and knows who I support. It's not really academy or youth stuff generally, just so happens I was told about this youngster a couple of days ago coming up.

If he is that good and I have to say I know nothing of him, then great.United need lots of good youngsters to keep the prospects high of kids making it into the first team.
