28 I think Cajun. He won apprentice of the year in the championship so I imagine a lot of those were starts. It's more than any of our other academy players have had consecutively. Most of them have ha loans where they were played as subs or just for a month or so. Think playing a lot is really important, Tav has had that more than the others but he's probably closest to the team after Bigi. As for Sammy, he has the most talent by a long way I just hope he can show it

Ha ha, are you serious? Marveaux has shown no signs of talent since joining us. Won't cut it as a winger playing for a top 8 club. he definitely can going forwards, the guy has bags of talent. I think pardew will be reluctant though due to him having such little defensive quality. He'llbe our best player against man u

Think when people say he's more advanced than other plays his age at NUFC, it's only to be expected given he's had way more first-team experience in the championship. Had he been with us since he was 14 or whatever, I doubt he'd have the confidence yet to play the way he's doing. Great lad

Great shout, hate all these cliches like 'that wasn't in [insert team or player's name's] script'. There's no fucking script mate, you giant bell. When a striker scores a goal after not having scored in about ten games, 'what a return to form'. No mate, it's a goal, form is, by definition, about longer-term success than scoring one goal

back from the wilderness?

I'm actually really excited about this game and seeing our academy really step up. Sure, it's a level beyond whattheyre used to but unless they play these matches they have no hope of pushing on. Come on fergie, Sammy, Bigi, Abeid, vuckic, campbell expecting big things from you all

I'm sure, thanks to his agents, that most managers know the clause is there any way tbh. No need to mention it publically but the blokes making the big decisions know of it regardless. In a sense, it's a relief to not have all the shitty articles talking about it and us discussing it at length. There's no 'perfect' situation with a clause like that but it's still frustrating to hear it

Not sure why he's mentioning it's still open. There's honesty and then there's no need to say something

Could prove difficult but will maritimo field full strength? I'm looking forward to these youngsters developing

Love aguero

Man, can't wait for Mou to return to the PL

Mourinho has worked his miracle? Someone put a bullet in this guys head

Hahahah, stupid game, fucking stupid

This match just got real

Just wanted to make the point that this forum does a jekyll/hyde when we have nights like this. Comedy is fucking rampant

Glorious this f*** me. Glorious this

2-0 victory. Cisse with one of them

If Harper fell down in a forest, would he ever actually reach the ground /philosoraptor

On the touchline when he kind of slipped and somehow managed to retain possession and surge up the line. Wonder playuer

Was utterly ridiculous that pass from Shola like

Same, never ever thought I'd say that

think he deserves a lot of credit for turning that around. Aye, there was nothing there first half and that's partly down to him, but a lot down to the players. the tactics second half were much better and he must have given them a fucking beasting

Well Ba is back, Santon was ace, Taylor had some right moments and Cabaye slipped in at least two great blalls. Cheers lads, I love football

Class game this, everton are a bunch of pussies

Everton and their fans are a bunch of pussies
