Keano's resurrection at Wigan has been miraculous, considering he joined us as a free agent when we were in administration and battling relegation to League 2 he's definitely earned legend status here.
Just don't call him Keano
Could say the same of most of the players that joined us that year that have stayed. It was particularly good though seeing Keano score more goals in one season than he had his entire career before that last year
Who? The only Keano is Roy Keane and he never played for Wigan or in league 2
@@TheMuldoonFellathe only person that didn’t watch the whole video 😂
@@lordbendtner6404 i know he meant Will Keane. Sarcasm my friend
genius idea to play Pogba as a CDM, even better than the decade long choice not to buy one, only to now see how great a world class CDM in Casemiro has changed the team
None played Pogba as a CDM.
@@harukrentz435 Must've been watching with your eyes closed
@@harukrentz435 exactly...
many managers started him deep with either Fred or Scott
but pogbadshit had never and ever been defensively responsible in each games he played
in fact, every miss opportunity and dispossession came from pogbadshit tends to lead to an opposition goals
thank god that trash have already departed yet he managed to rob the club for quite some sum sadly
@@Ultimecea90 sound like a kid
At the same time tho, if they did sign a proper world class CDM to relieve Pogba of those duties, I think he’d of been more motivated and done better. He showed glimpses of the quality anyway
So Pogba is the most successful of that class,he won Europa League for ManU,played in Champions League for Juventus and won World cup with France,only one to do so.He also became 1st ManU player to ever score in a world cup final.
Props to Will Keane. Inspiring resilience after so many setbacks.
Jesse Lingard. Such a promising prospect and could go on to be some talent.
A 30 year old teenager
@@hoze1235Career in holywood becons.
Will and Michael Keane are such a funny case of "I wish I could play for England but if not ill represent Ireland"
When they were both 17, Will was hotly tipped and representing England underage while his twin Michael represented Ireland. Then Michael switched at a certain age.
Eventually Michael actually made it into the England team. Now Will is representing Ireland and Michael probably would switch if possible because he's not getting an England call up anytime soon.
Dare's more to Ireland dun dis
Never thought I'd hear my beloved Warrington Town mentioned in one of Alfie's videos. Larnell Cole only joined about 2 weeks ago I think. He's played a couple of games, showing some tidy dribbling and good pace but nothing spectacular. Would've never though he was in this squad!
I was a fan of Pogba and when he came back to Man United, I thought he would led this team to an era of success, sadly it lasted only one season, he played in the darkest era of this club (recently) and now when he's just gone we win a trophy, so bizzare and tragic at the same time.
Pogba is overrated anyways
Ravel Morrison was the star in that team at the time
Macclesfield are a club you could do a video on, there attendance, following the forming of the phoenix club, is around twice what it was as Macclesfield Town, prior to their being dissolved.
Though Ravel was the star of that team, I felt genuinely sorry for Will Keane. He had amazing potential that was robbed from him by the bad injuries he suffered. Good to see him having a bit of a renaissance at Wigan.
Knee injuries ruin many a player's career. Hate to see it before a player gets a chance. Still bad at any point of the career though as can lead to general mobility issues in life.
I went to college with 2nd choice goalkeeper joe coll, his heart wasn't in it so he quit united and studied teaching
its crazy how much talent, dedication and luck it takes to become a star at the first team level. Any teenage kid winning an FA youth cup for United seems like they should be a guarantee for success
Pogba made his Juve debut yesterday, came off the bench and played really well.
That monopoli joke was gold😭😂👏🏽
a documentary on the afc Wimbledon on the nine promotions in eleven years, how they’re a fan own club and how they have a stadium in plough lane now.
The story of they lost the club, how the F A allowed that and won’t allow that anymore.
How they were very close to moving to ireland
How they went up the English football leagues.
It would be a good documentary video if you can do this. #thepeopleschannel
As a DC United fan, I was waaaaay too excited to see them mentioned.
Was very surprised to see Tom Thorpe has come back to football after disappearing for 5 years! Always though he would be a future 1st team CD but LVG chose McNair over him. Good to see him back though!
Gotta put this man at 2x speed so that i dont fall a sleep
Nice to hear that Tom Thorpe is back playing football. I remember his stint at ATK- I expected a lot from him, but unfortunately, the move did not go in an expected manner. He took a break for about 4 years and now he is back. Hope this move works out for him.
Day 399: Indonesia XI If All Eligible Players Had Declared For Them.
The people's channel 🙄
Bro the video isn't interesting
Give this guy his video alfie
You aren't getting your video
No one cares about this
14:49 I was at that game which is shown on screen. Notts County vs Aldershot March 2020
Lingard and Thogden are one of a kind.
Would be great to see a similar video with the luton town team that went very far in the 2016 even though they were a much smaller academy then all the remaining teams. Brought up talent like james justin and tyreek bakinson
Hey Alfie, just wanted to say that when talking about player's heights, maybe you could also mention it in metric units. It's a pain to always have to look up how many feet and inches are what. Great video tho.
I went to school with John cofie, I remember asking my English teacher why can't John play for the school team and she replied because sir Alex would sue us for everything we have
Video Request: What On Earth Is Going On At Southend United?
They're Currently On The Edge Of Liquation
VIDEO IDEA - which academy has the most World Cup winners?
Fun fact about Telstar, one of Van Velzen's clubs: the city they play in is named Velsen.
Alfie you got burnley mixed up w everton on the keane part 4:39
That plot twist at the end was a masterstroke 🤣
The plot twist at the end😂
I remember when John Cofie played for Derry City. Ferguson must have been on the whiskey when he signed him for United
Lingard golden boy winner 2023!
Ravel was the biggest star of that team.
Pogba and Lingard won trophies while collecting big bucks so i dont think they are failures. Michael Keane plays for Everton, not so bad.
I'm gonna put in another request for a hypothetical starting XI for the East African Federation, a proposed federation (big surprise there) of Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania and Uganda. None of them are exactly what you'd call powerhouse footballing nations, with the exception of the DRC, but with plenty of players from those nationalities in the French and German leagues there's bound to be some diamonds in the rough. I did actually send Alfie a Twitter DM detailing my own attempt at an EAF first team, complete with a kit design and a subs bench, but since that didn't get a response I can only assume it got lost in the post. It's not like he'd ignore an unsolicited private message about putting together a national football team for a country that doesn't exist, right? Right?
This is request number 14; calling it a streak feels a little disingenuous considering I miss days a lot of the time due to my health. I intend to go for as long as I can until Alfie either makes the video or tells me to bugger off. I'm sure you have your own opinions about which is more likely. =]
How about a video top 11 and a subs bench from each of Europe's top 5 divisions over the last 30 years or do it as a 5 video event then a final video mixing them all into one super squad combining all 5 league's that would be great watch
Adu joke never gets old🤣
Much Adu about nothing
It got old 3 years ago 🙄
I love how u always say "Without further Adu" lmfao it gets me every time and wen u post his pic wen u say it... Plz don't ever stop saying that 😂 😂 😂 😂... Xoxox
please do a video about the state of southend united
Only in football can you make a fortune by sitting on the bench what a life that must be
Phil jones is an inspiration for us all.
You can do that in most pro sports. Backup QBs make a fortune
Garnacho? Is that the same "graduate" that was playing for Atletico Madrid until 2020? Not sure I would include him.
it's so bizarre that all of those talents, hypes and trophy were only a butterfly effect for defeated devastated young Maguire to join the adult team of the opponent of the day as the most expensive defender.
and captaining them as well, damn
Can you please do a video about the Romanian teams: Universitatea Craiova 💙🤍 and FCU Craiova?
I know that you did a video about FCSB and CSU also in Romania 🇷🇴. They are in the same state as them. Just that both teams from Craiova play in the first league.
Forza Universitatea Craiova 💙🤍
🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴
How many videos are you going to try and make the "Without further Adu" joke in???
I had forgotten about Ravel Morrison entirely talk about a waste of talent
Newcastle, respected academy? As a newcastle fan I can tell you the best player we've produced in 15+ years in Sean Longstaff and that's saying something.
He’s not too bad tho right? Whenever iv managed to see him play he looked solid enough
Yea I thought that haha
@@jonathanking8429 yeah he's been pretty solid this season tbf, really improved under Howe
the fact that Maguire was playing against them and later on went and CAPTAINED the likes of Pogba and Lingard is mad
He won't captain Man Utd a whole lot more. Bruno does a better job anyway.
@@soundscape26 and also because they do not play for man utd anymore lol
@@javischoppa Them Man Utd, not Pogba and Lingard. I edited for clarity.
@@soundscape26 oh got you
@@soundscape26 yeah it was hard watching them lifting the trophy together when Bruno is the one who deserved to lift it as a captain
Ravel Morrison is quite possibly the biggest self inflicted tragedy in English football history. Such a shame he didn't have the mindset needed
Adrian Doherty's was far far worse.
Duncan Edwards is a far bigger tragedy.
@@Epsilon04 You could say that. A prodigy taken away far too soon.
@@Epsilon04 again very true ,but again completely out of his own control. Maybe I need to re word my comment
@@Epsilon04 but Duncan didn’t have control of his future. Morrison did.
Sean McGinty is Irish yet I've never heard of him until now for a very good reason it seems
As Alfie mentioned he played for us for a while (Morton) and he was absolutely hopeless despite working hard.
0:14 Never knew Shawcross came from Man Utd Academy😅
You know how they say united has had a youth product in the first team match day squad for 85 years for some reason i don't think its that hard for others to do so i am curious how many other teams in england has a streak like that going
who remembers when this guy said that rashford would be washed by 30😭😭😭
Is Rashford 30?
Video suggestion: a non english united kingdom team of scottish/welsh/northern irish players.
Video idea. 7 players with peculiar career paths
Sam Johnstone will come back in a few years as our third keeper
It was probably just easier to say that most of the team, at some point, probably played at Derby.
Left out that Will Keane is an Irish international now also..and Ravel is a Jamaican international haha
Congratulations to Manchester United for winning this season's English League Cup but I am extremely so sorry for some of the respective players who excelled so well in their academy twelve years ago,good friends!!!🙏
12:12 Lol he made his debut yesterday
Harry maguire is the only one from that youth cup final to captain united and he played for Sheffield United 😂😂😂
Plz sign ndidi n tielemen from Leicester, n alcarez from soton
18:05 A wild Harry Maguire appears
Funny that Pogba just made his debut
LOL I remember seeing John Cofie schlep around the pitches in the Philippines before he hung it up
Man was probably enjoying the food here because my God you could roll him off the pitch
I love the Adu jokes
It's great if you make it. Otherwise you may as well start at conference north level.
Do you know what all of the class of '92 had in common? Alex Ferguson. Don't get me wrong, they were all talented but no other manager would have managed to turn that many players into top quality players all from the same crop of players.
Scholes Giggs and Beckham almost certainly break through at any team and are world class. But the rest yeah
It helps that United had thin squad depth in the first double winning team allowing them to get the game time the next season. Scholes, Butt and G Neville played quite a bit when Blackburn won the league and Giggs had been a regular starter since 1991-92 season. Only Beckham and P Neville had to breakthrough after Kanchelskis was sold and Parker was not featuring.
I don't think that the club was ever that shallow in squad depth in the 2000s as it was in the 90s. Fletcher, O'Shea, Evans and Cleaverly were the only youth team players not poached from abroad to make it in the post millenium SAF era. That is make it and play lots of games. (Obviously SAF still signed quite a few young tallents in their late teens or early 20s Ferdinand, Rooney, Ronaldo, Nani, Hernandez, Anderson, Rafael and Fabio De Silva all these making depth quite strong blocking the way for the club's own youth. Pique woud have made it but left after the champions league win.)
LVG gave quite a lot of youth debuts and playing time when he was at United. I think ETH will do the same. We might never see so many from one team break through at once and make it in a long time, but should be a good amount come through under the current manager if he is here for a long spell.
SAF is a legendary manager without a doubt, but the players themselves have to be hungry for it. And that crop is hungry enough and hates losing. Talent aside, it's that win-at-all-costs mentality that served them so well. I would argue it's that attitude that made them great players and then talent.
@@norneaernourn8240 What I mean is that no other manager would be able to get that many players, with wildly different personalities, through to the first team set up in a way that they could thrive. Talent is necessary but it has to be cultivated. Fergie was a genius at understanding and working with people so he was able to be tough with the ones who needed that, gentle with the ones who needed that etc etc.
I'd honestly only say Giggs, Scholes and Beckham had the raw talent to be even close to sure things. Even then Scholes had faults in his game early on that other managers would have given up with and Giggs had a very problematic personality (That did come back to bite him later) but it hardly affected his playing career.
I think ETH with Garnacho could be an example of him doing something similar with him trying to control the ego of the lad without taking away his edge.
Sunny innit
Surprise twist at the end 😂
Harry Maguire😂😂😂
21:10 Priceless 😂
Best German players in the premier league of all time. (Day 466)
I will not give up until the video is made or Alfie himself tells me to stop. Everyone else telling me that will be ignored.
If you don't believe my number, just go back to the previous videos. I'm at the bottom most of the time, but I'm there.
“Indeed” “Ndidi” lol.
harry maguire is inevitable
I’m sad about lingard tbh he was special
I reckon ten Hag would’ve loved his passion for the club and could’ve got the best out of him
Who?
@@JustJoey98Wasn't it ETH that released him? United have quite a few players on the wings so he wouldn't get games there and he was never really played through the middle at United.
@@JustJoey98 he has passion but I believe he has reached his ceiling
@@gm2407 yeah I know EtH let him go because he wasn’t ever going to be good enough, but I think he could’ve made him a good rotational player for depth, at least for this season with such a thin squad
Video Request: What On Earth Is Going On At Dundee United?
They're Bottom Of The SPL
Poor Will Keane :(
These kids were top of the world in youth football, and most of them barely ended up having a football career. This is ruthless, tragic, and frankly - disgusting. You have to be absolutely crazy as a parent to want your child to go through this.
To be fair I imagine all parents think their kid is special and will make it all the way
Alfie needs to start writing about missing persons, people seem to just appear when a video is being written.
Video idea:
7 stadia that should be on every association football fan's bucket list.
0:05 Had
What this video shows is why B Teams (in the Football League) are needed to allow Youth Players to properly transition to the First Team.
I'm not watching any more of your videos until you reduce the quantity of ads.
The lack of mention of Duncan Edwards on this channel is incredible. Would make a great video on its own!
We need another Best Nordic Eleven 😁😬
Players that were tipped to be great but never quite reached those heights that would be interesting to see
Almost $918,000???
Or ndidi
I think the criticism of lingard is due to his reluctance to play football. By that i mean his lack of ambition to fulfill his potential. he just seems like someone who's happier to come on for his 15 minutes and get paid well for it....
Garnacho is not really an academy player. Signed from Atletico Madrid at 16
Lingard did this to himself
Alfie comes through with genuinely quality content once again 💪💯 even though I hate United 🤮
Joke opportunity about the Kitchen Champion Division missed
Jesse Lingardinho is a Jabroni ……. 🕳. ⚽️
Bloody hell Derby are basically a feeder team to MUFC GGMU
And the shef utd team they won against in the final consisted of harry maguire LOL
Harry Maguire 😂😂😂😂
My thoughts on them:
- Paul Pogba: The hairstyle artist.
- Jesse Lingard: What a Lingardinho!
- Ravel Morrison: An impulsive guy.
- The rest: I really didn't know them before watching this video.
Amazing how Pogba is only 29 but at this point resembles more a late 30's has been.
This is a 5 minutes video that took 20 mins 🤦♂️
There are no 5 minute videos on HITC Sevens, that's an impossibility.
Ha Ha Harry Maguire 😁
