16 year old Jim Thwaites Is An Absolute Gem!

[@rabmc]

Stephen Howson brought me here.

[@RyanAndElliottEdgley]

Same brother 👊

[@wishmaster4089]

Same. This kid looks the goods.

[@arthurmcpeterson5653]

say no more mate..me too😅😅

[@itsar2009]

lol same 😂

[@xsirdavidianx]

I wish I could say I was enough of a fan to come here on my own, but I'm also here because of Howson lol. Definitely enough of a fan now though, this kid is a beast

[@andrew13yt]

Scholes vision and range of passing with Beckham dead ball delivery? Yes please! Hope he can make the transition to mens football.

[@udeaniizuchukwu7836]

This boy is a baller. This is the type of midfielder we need

[@Bobby_Charlton_No9]

Massive talent. Finally United found Next Paul Scholes

[@conorlambert6035]

His free kicks are becks like

[@Bobby_Charlton_No9]

​@@conorlambert6035 Jim Thwaites is absolutely free kick specialist.

[@chrisrobison1352]

This kid can do it with either foot! Great video, another exciting prospect.

[@pbcomps]

@@chrisrobison1352 thank you!

[@sicklemie5248]

Looks good! a cross of beckham and scholes and plenty of years to progress.. very promising

[@lt9948]

thought the exact same thing

[@andreichivu8892]

More Scholes than Becks. Scholes was always looking for the strikers with his passes, so does Thwaites, and he prefers finding the no. 9 rather than inside forwards, just like Scholes. And he tries to find them really quick, he doesn’t waste time, if he sees the angle, he goes for the pass. Plus the left foot, Scholes had range with his left too, Becks not so much.

[@andrew13yt]

​@@andreichivu8892 Agreed but has Becks dead ball delivery with it. Where would he play in a 3-4-2-1 if he was ready for it though? I look at what Amorim wants to do and I don't see how you can play just one Ugarte type and one flair player in a 2 man midfield against teams with a high pressing high energy 3 man midfield in the Premier League.

[@andreichivu8892]

@ He can play next to Ugarte or even further up the field. Remember, Scholes scored 150+ goals in his career, he was more of an attacking midfielder rather than a deep lying one. But if he plays deeper he has the ability to both distribute the ball well - Ugarte does it too but he would be a better passer than Ugarte -, but also to carry it further up the pitch. I’ve noticed he has that Xavi move where he pirouettes with the ball around the opponent which is a good way to lose the first man. Plus, you don’t develop a player just for one system or one manager.

[@dark_memer42]

Great vision and tenacity. Looks like an exciting prospect!

[@vekaweart]

a Pedri like player He can become special

[@ABESW0RLD]

Immense talent. His free kicks are so good. Could be that eriksen replacement long term. He reminds me of Gilmour, JWP, Galbraith type midfielder. Hes probably what eth thought mount would be at cm😂

[@poopaduke3107]

Bit of Beckham with how he plays in terms of kicking style

[@banditbaker1675]

He is another special talent at the Carrington Academy👍👍

[@JadeJeftha-t9u]

The fact that there are 3 players - Thwaites, Fitzgerald and Kone, of a similar elk coming through is immense. It will be interesting to see which one makes it...😆

[@georgeetto.9580]

And you put James Scanlon in there

[@JadeJeftha-t9u]

I think James Scanlon is playing at his level. The other boys stand out more in terms of ability. Scanlon for me may be scoring goals but whether he develops to be able to score at the highest level. We will have to wait and see.

[@seanwright1890]

More of the Beckham ilk than Scholes but can see why the Scholes comparison is made. Silky smooth distribution

[@Sekatings]

He is special alright 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Brent066]

Love the way he takes care of the ball. He’ll be able to dictate games

[@Edawgg1983]

IMO Amorim should promote from the Academy like he did at Sporting if funds are stretched due to FFP.

[@arthurmcpeterson5653]

wow...am lost for words...we are back!what a player ..mint❤

[@JMB1891]

This kid is a bit special, hopefully he continues to develop and can stay clear of injury.

[@JosipPeric-yk9jy]

I see scholes . His passing ability , just wow .

[@anirudh_cr]

Jim Thwaites - Passing range is very impressive. - silky movements and progression - just turned 17 - can see the small nuances of Paul scholes. This is my feeling with a lot of our prospects- physically I am not sure how it would translate to the first team. I feel if you have to make it at the top level - you have to be ridiculously good if you aren’t physically there. Hopefully Jim Thwaites can grow the next couple of years to really determine whether they can make it. I’d put him at the same bracket as Lacey and Amass. Ibraghimov although has the same height is physically gifted in terms of engine and athleticism.

[@JasonChalwe-yo8ri]

He has well cultured right foot like Beckham

[@thatninotino]

2:15 That drop of the shoulder was disgusting🤢😭🔥🔥

[@bjplays9449]

Very technical

[@thesealeynetwork]

Cheers Ste! 🫡

[@tsang6983]

Do you know what happened to Ethan Galbraith and Dylan levit? I thought they would be great players by now but haven’t heard of them in awhile.

[@jimmy17172004]

Levitt plays for one of the Scottish Premiership sides, i cant remember which. Galbraith is in the lower leagues.

[@wolfswinkel8906]

Big shame what happened to those boys.

[@FeltMarvellous]

Mismanaged by Utd but they’re playing really well. Galbraith needs to sign for a bigger team

[@nazidemi1381]

New scholes 😍

[@emada3275]

This player remind me with scohles

[@alvarezbrewster7052]

Him gore n kobie in mid field would b great

[@jimmy17172004]

Reminds me a bit of Ward-Prowse. Hard to say how good yet of course.

[@Mooooooook45]

Bruno can learn a lot here.

[@omarsamuda5511]

Get him in the senior team now

[@chrispickens9719]

I'm not sure there's a single midfielder on the first team that two footed or with that level of switch .

[@YusifHasanzade-t4w]

sam alabi , heze grimwade , floyd samba , ryan kavuma , jeremy monga , jeremiah debrah , addich .

[@aminem2080]

WOW. ok now i see why STE keep talkin bout him now we need to see how he does off-the-ball/defensively

[@reggaetonero0407]

If he can bulk up a little, he’ll be the total package

[@realistian]

song name? also we need a comp of tyler fletcher! I think he is massively under appreciated, highly talented with a dlp profile we desperately need in the utd team

[@pbcomps]

@@realistian soon Here kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaLCZ2Wvjbego6csi=ACmR52fsARWn3s3q

KDB vibes 😊

[@JoeNavvaro4321]

great player. sydie peck next!

[@pbcomps]

@@JoeNavvaro4321 I’ll check him out

[@freeindeed13]

Scholesesque!

[@ABESW0RLD]

0:18 I think that weak foot strike was when he was on trial😂

[@DuyKhoa97]

odegaard 🥰

[@jonathanmunroe3597]

Why was a clip of lacey used?

[@markomark9587]

What track is this

[@alvarezbrewster7052]

He reminds me of Scholes

[@kelechidivine2704]

Bendito mantato

[@thebizness5596]

Proper player. Can tell by the first touch and the way he strikes the ball. We have to let go of the the players that don't have the technical ability and give him a chance. These are the type of players that help you win titles on a consistent basis. Scholes, Kroos, Xavi, Modric types.

[@samuelBen-kalio-lp6pr]

Both foot? Interesting close control diminutive

[@t.bo.e2487]

Reminds me of scholes

[@Goodmorningyoutubers]

Looks like a 15 year old Scholes there

[@storm2vega]

He will fit well in a 433, not sure abt 343.

[@andrew13yt]

Same here. Tbf though I don't think you can play a 2 man midfield against any well drilled, energetic, transition based 3 man midfield in the Premier League

[@emmanueladekunle3088]

​@@andrew13yt he can play higher up

[@ChukxHenry]

@pbcomps please bro still waiting on the Luca Williams Barnett video 😂

[@pbcomps]

@@ChukxHenry bro trust me I’ve not forgotten There are a lot of matches I have to screen record and go through plus I have exams to prepare for that’s why it’s taking so long I’m trying to make the video as comprehensive as possible I’ll make it as soon as I can dw

[@jaserogers997]

​@@ChukxHenrywhy would he give you his word for anything

[@JH-Baksh]

Alreayd better press resistance than Bruno

[@placidenyanpeprah189]

He’s better than Kobbie He will be great 🫡

[@thebizness5596]

Wouldn’t go that far. Kobbie is the full package but more of a 10 to me because of his dribbling. Thwaites is in the 8 Pedri mould.

[@reddevilkev]

He is the new Becks look at his technique...

[@dunstanibecheozor6081]

Stephen was right...

[@esomonuchrysogonus9111]

Another scholes in the making

[@karimmoorad9649]

Please dont come into first team now while its toxic😢

[@KaungYeNyo]

Good long pass

[@harryzaman1023]

He's good but he doesn't look special. For me, he hasn't shown the creativity to be a special talent. He can spread the play but lacks a killer through ball. He reminds me of James Ward Prowse as opposed to Scholes. Scholes was probably England's greatest midfielder so you need to be really special and I just don't see it in him. Having said that, he is playing against players a couple of years older than him so he clearly has talent. Being compared to Ward Prowse isn't an insult as he has been a quality premier league midfielder for years.
