when they release the squad numbers how come there is only 24 players

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Because those were the ones considered to be in the first team squad. Other youth don't get numbers until being promoted to the first team and players like Sharp aren't given numbers because they just aren't considered part of the team (although Tadnari Lee if rumours are true will receive one soon).

Ok nice one
i thought youth do get a number but don't count towards the 25 man sqaud

Only first team players get a first team squad number?

Agree0 Disagree0

They released the youth players who are in the first teams numbers as well though making a total of 24 (however obviously Osvaldo joined since and Puncheon and Mayuka left on loans as well). Youth players do not need numbers registered at the season start but do need registering with the club before the season starts. They then can be given a number if they earn a first team chance.

I don't get this site? Does my user i'd only allow me to post to my teams name as I can't post on other teams sites! It says invalid password and then accepts it on the man utd page?

Anyway I just wanted to say well done to Ricky lambert. It's pleasing that other clubs can bring players on and develop them. Southampton have a great production line for talent; bale, Walcott and Shaw to name a few. Plus bringing on Lambert shows how good the coaches and staff that are there are. It's refreshing to see a club like that and you are back where you belong. Good look for the rest of the season

Cheers bud, its always nice to get some recognition and hopefully its onwards and upwards for us.

Nice to hear from Man. Utd. supporter. BUT why can't Rooney help to show Wellbeck has talent? Could it be because when Rooney plays it is all about him, and bullying the younger players to give him the ball even when he is in no position to do anything with it, whilst RL helps the players around him to play as a unit?

Rooney has been holding the England team back for some time now and I have a suspicion we may see a much more proficient team performance with Rickie in the side helping the younger players appreciate something about linking the play-especially once they all start to appreciate what he is doing.

{Ed001's Note - cheers mate, it is easier for everyone if you just tell us as soon as there is an issue, then we can fix it. Otherwise all we get is lots of moans about it not working!}

{Ed001's Note - no worries mate, it wasn't meant to be a dig, I was meaning it to be jokey, though looking back it is difficult to tell. I guess that is why smiley faces were invented for texts, to allow you to show a mood the text is meant to convey. Thank you mate, I just hope we can fix all the issues for everyone. We want the sign ins to run some competitions and games, the international periods get boring otherwise!}

I knew it was a joke mate and that's the good thing about banter! It's just that without getting malicious! I love banter but people take it too far and can't take it! That's why some eds left the utd page (I don't blame them).

Again thanks for the quick responses and its appreciated. Better get off here before my misses knocks my head off for not ringing her back within 15 mins (98 minutes ago!)
