Buying British

Ross Barkley worth a punt in replacing Carrick?

Any up and coming young centre backs worth purchasing?

Would you prefer to buy British to keep a British core in the Squad or should the Glazers just fack it and throw our money at Hummels and Pogba next summer?

I see Phelan has come out with the "British core" nonsense.
------------------------
Yea, utter nonsense.

I can't remember the last team to win the league with a core of British players.

Has anyone ever done it?

We did

Flowers, Hendry, Le Saux, Sutton, Batty, Ripley, Wilcox, Newell, etc...

Don't buy English, we'll just get ripped off - see Shaw, Chambers, Lallana for examples. There will be better players than Barkley soon, reckon Ryan Gauld at Lisbon will eclipse Barkley as a British talent, much more natural ability.

No I dont remember City, Chelsea or Arsenal doing it. So you are probably right

We were the last team to win the League fielding all English players, slightly ironically...

No wum.... Would you let us know how you came to support Man UTD?

I am genuinely interested, as we never really had global superstars (Maybe Beckham), never really signed world class players or were even that successful in Europe.

I was just scrolling down the Utd board and saw this line:

"Ross Barkley worth a punt in replacing Carrick?"

Presumably you were adequately ripped to pieces for this.

You are an absolute disgrace and you wonder why we have such an under performing England team. To buy a few foreign players is a great idea but to label all English players 'Over hyped donkeys barring a couple of them' is ridiculous, being a football coach myself at grassroots its people like you who are ruining our game. I'm sure you're one of those fake football fans who doesnt even live in Manchester and hasnt watched one of there games out of your front room.

He is from India.

Nothing wrong with fans from abroad, but when they have this attitude towards English football and grass roots, I just makes me wonder why they bother..... Just support however has the most galacticos that season.
