Excellent that you do this coverage on regular basis 😊

[@Antidisestablishmentarianism99]

Would love to see a video on how our most promising academy players could fit into Ruben Amorim’s system.

[@realrecoginizereal8715]

Cracking video this lads. Finn is a brilliant addition.👍🏽👌🏽

[@jonathanr6143]

Hopefully obi-Martin can continue his progress. Charlie McNeill scored loads of goals at young age but hasn’t been able to take that into men’s football

[@craigmaisner8294]

Let's pump the brakes a bit here. Go watch the highlights, they're available. The level of these u18 games is nowhere near the level of premier league football. These are kids after all. Not to say Obi- Martin does show great potential but let's not be delusional about the skill level and demands of needed to play first team football in the Premier League. Its just unneeded pressure on yet another one of the up and coming talents, playing for Utd is a huge responsibility on its own.

[@NickPDS]

Lamine Yamal playing first team football at the age of 16... and on the biggest stage being the Euros, 17 years old now.

[@oldmickymicky]

Always enjoy when Fin (Academyscoop) is on, very insightful, informative and well researched. I think what I'm saying is it's so much better then the sky lot. Keep up the great work. Up the paddock

[@minimeee04]

Don't forget Ethan Wheatley brilliant striker.

[@kh7688]

Amorim likes big strikers who can run into channels, as well as battle with defenders. Obi-Martin might be perfect in 3-4 years time.

[@joda6466]

Amorim played a 17 year old didnt he? Surely our young bright sparks will start being seen soon?

[@crooner4848]

Unfortunately the fact that Obi-Martin grew up in the Arsenal academy means that he still has so much to learn. He needs to learn what it means to be part of a team.

[@sgoredraw1455]

Exactly this . When he had a moan at Ibraghimov in the last match , he showed his complete immaturity. I don’t think he’ll be anywhere near the men’s team for a long while yet .

[@gehanoates885]

​@@sgoredraw1455Unless he's spoken to about his attitude.

[@andrew13yt]

​@@sgoredraw1455 Yes, it's a bit of immaturity along with a fair bit of ego, something that most top class strikers have, but I wouldn't call it "complete immaturity" just yet; he's not bedded in properly with his new team mates but I'm sure the coaching staff won't allow it to get out of hand. The fact that he's physically literally head and shoulders above his team mates, is used to dominating the opposition and has been breaking goal scoring records at youth level has obviously given him a degree of confidence and perhaps arrogance that we've seen in several players that had negatively impacted the senior squad in recent years, but again, many top strikers (and top sports men and women in general) have that singular focus in them. The fact that he's had such a buzz about him and he's been prepared to ditch a club as big as Arsenal (whose first team are genuine title challengers) for United, does make me wonder whether he is going to stick around and commit his career to us or if he's just using us a better paying, temporary stepping stone for a future at Barca or Real? At the end of the day however he's just one very impressive individual in a team full of incredible young players. I'm more excited about the fact that the U18 team is dominating and progressing rather than one individuals freakish productivity.

[@crooner4848]

@@gehanoates885 Being told about it is one thing, but learning the 'United Way' from the age of six is another. It's what sets United apart from other clubs.

[@AshishKumar-qx3sg]

I’m loving this new academy review show. It gets me excited with all the hype around the potential superstars we are grooming.

[@shputinit]

Too much is made of them, too much attention is paid to 'super kids'. L>et them develop naturally without the hype before they start believing all the hype and feel that they've already made it.

[@richarddavies3518]

Totally agree the response from fans was over the top but it wasn’t “a lack of celebration” as Jay put it. He was having a go at the goal scorer and another team mate had to have a word. He did look a bit of a knob at that moment to be fair

[@ricardovasques293]

WHAT I LISTEN IS AMORIM WILL HAVE LOADS OF YOUNG AND UNGRY ,TALENTED PLAYERS TO CHOOSE FROM HE WILL LOVE THAT EXACTLY WHAT HE DONE IN SPORTING!!!!!!

[@matthewbaker2573]

he will get a couple of first team training sessions. and will step up to the under 21s. if he performs well there, he will get minutes playing in United's pre season which will then be an indication of whether he is ready to step up into the mens game. i can see him going out on loan before making his competitive debut for the mens team to gain valuable experience

[@CoroDan]

Get him in the first team. We have to be patient though. Rooney started at 16 with Everton but only scored 15 goals in 67 matches for them. If he achieves that kind of target starting at 16, he's on track for greatness.

[@Chris-jy3el]

'Get him in the first team' followed by 'We have to be patient though' 😂😂😂

[@2tearsinabucket521]

Couldn’t be more wrong , he’s nowhere near kid Rooney level, he needs time and building up he’s going to need a loan eventually, he doesn’t stand out in that under 18s team

[@CoroDan]

@@2tearsinabucket521 That's the way! Tell him what he's not! Strip away his enthusiasm & confidence. Tell him he has to wait, meanwhile the older players in the first team keep failing. No wonder we're sh**e with that mentality.

[@Hedgebets100]

​@CoroDan He's not the level of Rooney at that age, nowhere near it. Throw him in at one of th3 worlds biggest clubs and have fans who haven't a clue putting Rooney level of expectations on him. Embarrassing Idea.

[@kieranheneghan4132]

Fin has a mad resemblance to McTominay

[@tommygeorge894]

6 ft 2 at 16 is crazy and the kid is still growing

[@kevinb9830]

There's every chance he's the new Cherno Samba. A size bully at lower ages.

[@CrossxFir3]

He could well be done growing taller. Plenty of people stop by 16. Well just have to see.

[@vidicisgod]

My youngest son is 6'3" and just turned 13. It seems kids tend to be hitting big growth spurts earlier...or at least that's my theory😅😅😅. My son was born a big baby and they told us at a young age that he was gonna be quite tall

Got to be 18 before we see him in the first team needs a couple years to develop and grow.

I disagree, look at Lamine Yamal, playing on the biggest stage at the age of 16, now 17.

@ can’t compare him to Rooney a loan will be needed first

[@Ap77777-i]

It was good that he got them goals but if you actually watched it the defending from forest was like they never touched a ball

[@PhoenixReturns]

I only see good finishing atm as a quality, evrything else could be only becuase hes twice the size as his opponents, he needs time in the under 21's at least to see how he fares. Ibraghimov on the other hand could have great potential as a wing back.

[@sanjaydinagaren]

Possible XI in 2-3 years (3-4-2-1): Onana; Kukonki; De Ligt; Yoro; Amass, Mainoo, Kone, Mantato; Scanlon, J Fletcher; Obi-Martin.

[@Faria26]

Yes guys ❤

[@ruderiks8872]

saw the highlights .... he's big and mature for his age, and looks like an adult compared to the other kids... not sure I saw anything more than that in terms of skill, pace or creativity... maybe more freddy edu than next tierry henry

[@degaz1]

please stop banging the table lads

[@warlorddk2070]

I have seen the videos, he is a selfish brat! He needs to be wipped into a team player just like Garnacho who by the way was from our own academy showing flaws producing selfish players... Im Danish, i want him to succeed as my countryman but it has to be done right!

[@richarddavies3518]

I hope he pans out good (Obi Martin) but from what I’ve seen, he’s not very disciplined and it may not translate to men’s football. There’s loads of clips of him practically tackling his own players, running in the same channels and nicking the ball of them. Then his reaction to Ibragimov nicking his goal gains Leeds was daft. He’s sooooooo young though. A lot to learn. I don’t see him in the first team for a while

[@ukbigjon]

He just needs to mature a bit, some people are making too big a deal of his "attitude" or temperament. Depending on the rest of this season, what opportunities arise in the mens team, I could see him making a debut this season. But it wont be long either way

[@rodgey12]

Another great vid lads. Dont know about yous two but I found the Obi Martin discourse and Arsenal fans’ faux vindication to be so funny. They dont even realise that this is the kind of mentality that world class strikers have. Chido’s hunger for goals is what has brought him to where he is and it will bring him further again. Never been more sure of this lad’s success than after seeing that reaction

[@TheDreamchaser2016]

Exactly top strikers have a hunger to score goals. He is a kid and he was had a moan thinking Ibragimov took his goal. Don’t know why people are mad at that. I’d rather that reaction than a timid striker

[@rajdeepsingha3523]

[@unclebensrice4702]

He can't be worse that Zirkzee 😂

[@sgoredraw1455]

Obi Martin moaning at Ibraghimov in the last match showed that he has a long way to go before he’s allowed anywhere near the first team . Ibraghimov was genuinely shocked at the reaction . Obi Martin is not a team player in the slightest at the minute . Whilst it wasn’t worthy of a disciplinary, it for sure needed a quiet word from the coaches after the game .

[@shputinit]

I am certain he would have got more than a gentle word.

[@2tearsinabucket521]

Dunno who this guy is but obi is clearly not ready, he doesn’t look out of place in that under 18s squad, scanlon looks more complete than him tbh, very gangly and Stil abit to learn, if he was that good he’d be playing already he’s nowhere near a 16yr old Rooney etc

[@Lets_Talk_ManUtd]

[@markbehan7511]

would love to see a video that is not edited mid sentence from the panel. would give a lot more credibility to it. No doubt there is knowledge there but don't snip sentences to make it look knowledgeable. Makes it look fixed ( Coming from a united fan)

[@stevennkhoma9971]

I think mantanto will get a go on the Left wing back

[@IR._]

I think we’ll see Obi Martin in the first team sooner than people think. Amorim coming in probably moves him up the pecking order slightly, so maybe he isn’t considered 3rd choice striker as he was when brought in, which can be a good or bad thing. He looks like an Amorim striker and so does Hojlund. I see Zirkzee fitting in better as one of the players behind the striker and Obi Martin potentially as Hojlund’s direct back up if we don’t sign anyone there.

[@CoroDan]

Stuff that "temper our expectations". Put him on the big stage & tell him to give it everything. You don't achieve greatness by being mollycoddled!
