My top 5 prospects. The youth coming through is probably the highest standard we have had. Some have already made the breakthrough so Im not counting the likes of Wisdom and Sterling etc
The above are my tips for the next to join them getting time in the first team.
We could save a lot of money by promoting the youngsters as back up and spend big on the positions we need filling in the here and now.
Ibe, Jones, Mclaughlin, Yesil, Texeira

Just for your information Teixeira is pronounced Tay-shay-ra. I know a Teixeira and do chuckle at some of the attempts.

Jones is the one I admit I know nothing about, saw he was on the bench the other day, any info on him?

SM or right; these young players, at present, represent not definite future first team players, but they each have huge potential, not just them, but many more coming through Melwood. In many ways there's one man who can claim some of the credit for that. please step forward Rafa and take a bow. JimmyTheRed

Nope, sorry, don't agree.
Owen, Fowler, McManaman, Carra, Rooney, and various others that actually have made it at the top level were all MILES ahead of the likes of Texeira at the same age and he is arguably the most gifted of the ones you mention. Yesil could but he has not loing just hada terrible injury.
Out of our youth I can only see Sterling and Wisdom making it with us. Suso could but not in the EPL in my opinion.
