His name's Charlie McCann and he was signed by Man Utd two years ago. Current MUFC U18's captain.

Will Bapaga is highly rated at the academy. Last years 18s were poor by all accounts with a handful of "ok" 17s.
A little more hope for the 16s going into their U17 year in the coming season.
No stand outs other than Bapaga currently.

What about Ngandu, thought there were high hopes for him or has his development stalled a little?

U18s have struggled this past year but some really exciting prospects coming up into the side for next season... Also a few in next seasons U16s I'd expect to make an impact further down the line

And will make us a lot of money in the future based on appearance bonuses

Where as here he would probably be in the first team squad and will have played games in the football league.

Lost his way a bit
Was invisible in some of the u23 games I saw last year which doesn't bode well

He's a decent prospect
Seems to be a leader as well - they are as rare as hen's teeth

We've brought a few in from outside too over the past few years, any word on how they are getting on? I think there was a midfielder from Southampton maybe, and the likes of Bremang?

Aaron Evans Harriott was brought in from Cheltenham Town.

When the signing was announced on the Twitter page, someone said 'Just announce that he'll be signing for Norwich in July 2022'. Which was probably not a bad shout at the time, but now we're in the same division as them they won't, I don't think keep on poaching our youngsters unless they go back up again and we struggle for cash.

That's the one! It's going to be tough for youngsters (through whatever academy) to get a chance in the Championship but it would be nice to have a couple come good if possible

I think Bapega and Eccles could if they got L1 loans first

Fingers crossed, Bapaga got some chances last pre-season so maybe we'll see him again this time around. I don't watch any of the youth games but Newton, Bapaga and Eccles seem to be the names mentioned most often.

Yes - he's been out for ages, so hardly had any game time - difficult for anyone to have formed much of an opinion.

That Bartlett looked decent in one of those Micky mouse cup games we played in just before his injury. Eccles will be a good player. Not seen Bemang, Bapaga, Newton or Ngandu

Young could be a surprise. Supposedly classy player, has league 1 experience from when he was 17 and had a year taken on his deal. I'd imagine a loan out now for him, Eccles, Williams at least.
