I can’t see either of these guys pushing for places in the future – useful reserves, perhaps, but probably not even Utd “bench” material. Of the youngsters, you can really only see Evans and Campbell PERHAPS making it through, but even then I think its a big ask.

Why do you expect more from younger players? That doesn’t make much sense, yes it would be great to see young players just come into the squad but we must remember it took some time for Giggs, Scholes, Beckham, and all the other greats time to break into the team. Eagles I agree should be on his way, he hasn’t impressed but I would like to hold onto Martins. I have heard some different accounts of the game and he seems to be fairing a lot better than he is on this one. Martins has some good qualities and needs more time to develop.

Possebon looks good, I watched some of the videos posted on another site. He seems good on the ball and I am disappointed he didn’t make the trip to South Africa. I just hope he can play some for the first during the pre-season.

No, they’re not good enough for United. But they can have careers at other clubs like so many United youth players have had lately. Just because you’re not good enough for United doesn’t mean you can’t do well at….say… Hull and such.

Im watching the celtic game now and Mcgeady would be a great replacement for Giggs in 12 months time

I think it might be hard comparing Eagles to Rooney I get your point but Rooney is a Freak of Nature ( in more ways than one), I think the one person that everyone would have liked to see on this tour is Rodrigo Possebon, I know he plays in the center midfield but I would rather have him than Gibson on this tour.

I agree mate they are not good enough for untd 1st team and never will be
I wish them well and I think theyll have good careers in the championship and possibly lower level of the prem but they won’t cut it at untd
