Who’s Ferguson?
He is f*ng mustard! We desperately need such a kind of sinning. Young and hungry.Assuming Nathan Ferguson (West Brom) only 19. Can play left/ right back, out of contract end of season. IMO looks very good, assume end of KWP if we do go for him though.
Playing v Swansea on Sky now.
Should have been a easy win today but we did not finish our chances,Chay Cooper is having a very good season and he should have had two goals today,don't know if you noticed today but I think Cooper has found a bit of extra pace and he is looking a bit faster of late?
Jose will give more chances to the youth players than Pochettino ever did.

Sounds strange after getting beat but Reading for me was one of weaker teams I have seen this year so far at home.I know edson prefers him at RB, but I actually really liked him at CM yesterday. I think he looks quite natural on the ball and has a really good engine and is fairly calm. But I don't think he has the ability to be particularly effective at RB.
I did think he looked quite nippy today. As you say we should have buried our chances.
As a follow up to my half time post.
I think we had the better chances overall. When we were 2 nil up we looked too comfortable as if victory would be a given at that point. Once Lusala gave the pen, I think we couldn't get ourselves back into the gear we needed. But in saying that still created some chances that should've been tucked away.
Equaliser was unlucky as we had 10 men on the pitch for last 10mins due to an injury and they countered.

The full list of players Poch gave a debut to for the record:
Harry Winks
Kyle Walker-Peters
Cameron Carter-Vickers
Joshua Onomah
Filip Lesinak
Kazaiah Sterling
Marcus Edwards
Tashan Oakley-Boothe
Anthony Georgiou
Anton Walkes
Shay Harrison
Oliver Skipp
Timothy Eyoma
Luke Amos
George Marsh
Japhet Tanganga
Troy Parrott
How many of those played one game and were never seen again?
Read my post above. I made that point --- Pochettino gave a lot of debuts but only Winks went from total rookie to first team regular. Giving a debut is not giving a youth player a chance and judging by Mourinho's track record at other clubs doesn't leave me with optimism but if he bucks the trend at our club I'll be the first to sing his praises.
Regarding Nathan Ferguson who has been mentioned numerous times in here. His contract is up in the summer so I fully expect us to offer a fee in January. Ferguson has a great deal of potential and is that rare breed of full back who.loves defending.
Then at United only McTominay became somewhat of a first team player but even he only became a regular under OGS. It might shock people but Onomah made more appearances for us than McTominay did for United under Mourinho.
onomah made more appearances yes (34 vs 31) but less than half the minutes (807 vs 1654). mctominay started 11 pl games including big games against the likes of chelsea and liverpool as well as a cl knockout game away to sevilla so he was well trusted by mourinho. onomah played in a lot of games but it's misleading as the majority were for 5-10 minutes and the main bulk of those were in the cups.
i'm not under any illusion that jose is suddenly going to change his ways after all these years but he's not got to do much to better poch in this department. it's not even about "giving them chances" either, as long as he doesn't block them from going down other avenues to get experience then he's already doing better than poch in my book.
Don’t players have to be listed to be involved for Bayern. Bowden and White are only listed outside main squad.
