    Massive to me, that used to be uniteds DNA, utd reared players at least, don't have to be local so much. That should be the goal, not at expense of first team however, they have to be good enough. Almost irrelevant though as we seem either by design or due to circumstances incapable these days of tying our best youngsters down before getting any serious game time in the first team,both the odd exception.

    If a young player has the right attitude it doesnt matter much to me where they come from. Its great to see a local lad who supports the club in the team too though.
