Youth training should be a system, a system that is gradually strengthened.

For example, Rooney is strong, but why doesn't he have experience in the youth team?

You can't say that because he's a genius, he didn't play in the youth team and jumped straight to the first team, that's impossible!

Messi, Ismael, Mikel Mikel and Michael Johnson are all 13 or 14 years old now, but they are already playing for the new Manchester United Under-18s because they are so talented and very strong.

If Wayne Rooney hadn't been in the first team at the age of 14 and he was really strong, he could have played in the youth team or at a higher level, but he didn't have that experience, why?

It's because the youth league is badly organized!

In 98-01, the FA and the political axe each allocated £5 million a year to support the youth training of English teams, which is a special fund for youth development, but from next year, this money has been dispersed to the Premier League, the FA, the players' association, the football league, the sports council and the political axe, many of which have made it clear that they want to withdraw the funding.

While there is a wide emphasis on youth training across the continent, England is reducing its investment in youth training, which must have made small and medium-sized clubs more reluctant to invest in youth academies, leading to the decline of youth training in England.

This is especially true in the lower leagues.

Xiao Yu's idea is that the FA will not invest, so the club will do it itself, organize professional teams in nearby cities such as Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Blackburn, etc., form a youth team league system by itself, and play games by itself.

Only with enough games can players improve faster and better.

A number of Premier League teams, including Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Everton and Leeds United, are already clearly interested in the scheme, and most of them are more focused on youth development, so they feel that it is better to let the youth team play against opponents of the same level than to let the players play games that have no training value, which will stimulate them to improve.

Moreover, from the original Manchester to the surrounding cities, this annual expenditure is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for these Premier League teams, and they are not very much seen by them at all.

As for some other poorly managed professional teams, Xiao Yu is thinking about establishing this matter through the FA, and then applying for a special fund to organize this league to help these teams.

Although New Manchester United is a team in League Two, Xiao Yu will not covet this amount, because he invests in the academy every year according to the proportion of the budget, and there is not much difference for New Manchester United whether there is this money or not.

Moreover, if young people such as Messi can get more training in the game, this is more important than anything else.

"Well, you can get this done as soon as possible, and I hope to be able to do this competition this year!" After listening to Kassel's report, Xiao Yu was very happy.

Not only Xiao Yu, but also Mourinho, Moniz, Mulensteen and others, who have frequently complained that the youth team has too few games and the value of game training is not high, etc., and now if they can compete with their peers in Manchester United, Liverpool and other teams, it will undoubtedly greatly stimulate the positive surnames of young players and accelerate their progress.

"Recently, there have been a lot of scouts who have been beating the minds of our academy players, and this matter must be taken seriously, and if anyone dares to mess around in private, go and sue them!" Xiao Yu said fiercely.

New Manchester United has already gotten angry with several nearby clubs that are ready to work together, especially Manchester United and Manchester City, and if they dare to poach people in private, New Manchester United has vowed to take them to court.

From the point of view of these big clubs, they can't afford to offend a club for one or two promising young players, especially when the tone of the opponent is so tough, after all, no one can guarantee that these players will be successful.

However, the fact that others do not poach players from New Manchester United does not mean that New Manchester United does not plan to poach other players.

The first unlucky team was Oldham in the north of Manchester, which was in League Two and had just suffered a 3-1 home defeat to the new Manchester United, and after that game, Xiao Yu suddenly remembered a person, so he asked the club's scouts to pay attention.

Maika Richards, a young England national team star at the back of the line, made his debut at Manchester City and now plays for Oldham United, he was born in Birmingham and grew up at Leeds United, but was rejected by Leeds United's academy and came to Oldham's youth team.

Oldham's academy is not very good, they don't give much importance to the academy, so Richards doesn't feel valued here either, he also played against the youth team of the new Manchester United and lost badly, and the conditions of the opponent are very good, which makes Richards envious.

So when the scouts of New United approached him and asked if he would be willing to train in the Academy of New Manchester United, he nodded almost without thinking about it, and Oldham didn't have much of a problem with that, provided that New United would pay them a small training fee, just a few thousand pounds.

"We also went to Stevenage, our opponent in the national league, but we didn't find the guy you said in their academy, but we found him in the neighbourhood, with the same name you said, Jack Wilshere, who is nine years old, a West Ham United fan."

Xiao Yu was happy when he heard it, "Can you pull it over?" ”

This is another star for England in the future, and Xiao Yu believes that under the cultivation of youth masters such as Moniz and Mulensteen, his achievements will not be inferior to those at Arsenal.

'We've invited his parents to Manchester to visit our training base and take them to a nearby school to do a site survey and they've agreed to let Wilshere join our Academy. Cassel said with a smile.

As the academy director of the new Manchester United, he has seen countless stars with his eyes, and he can naturally see the potential contained in Wilshere.

Even if Xiao Yu is determined to lead the new Manchester United into a giant club in the future, he cannot change the fact that every giant club must have a group of its own academy players, which is not only because of the mandatory regulations of UEFA in the future, but also because of the actual needs of the team.

Every team needs to have a group of core forces that are loyal to the team, regardless of the results, and never give up, such as Liverpool's Steven Gerrard, Real Madrid's Raul, AC Milan's Maldini, Juventus's Piero, etc., all need to have their own players who are loyal to the team.

Only the team built with the core strength of the club can have cohesion and combat effectiveness!

New Manchester United also has its own cultivated players, such as Curtis, as well as youth training Messi, Ismael and others, but there are not too many such players, especially when Xiao Yu knows the talent of these people.

There are a lot of games in the English league and there are many opportunities for players to play, especially young players, and if the youth league is established again, it will help the academy even more.

"Jack Rodwell, who currently plays for Southport's youth team, is coached by his uncle, Tony Rodwell, who was once a player for the Black Ze team and is now retiring as a youth team coach."

Xiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this guy is also a prodigy, fortunately, he hasn't been to Everton yet, and the Nangang team is a semi-professional team in the national league, and their youth academy can be imagined, to what extent.

"We've talked to his parents and they've agreed to let Jack Rodwell come to Manchester, probably for the next two days, and see our club by the way!"

This is a common practice of recruiting youth team players, after all, when parents send their children to the club, they must be concerned about their children's cultural learning and what kind of environment they are practicing in.

Usually young players like Wilshere, Rodwell and Richards will be placed in nearby homes and cared for by the fans when they arrive in Manchester, and then they will go to a nearby school and train with the club several times a week.

The aim is to develop their loyalty and identification with the club.

The new Manchester United fans near Newton Heath are notoriously fanatical, and they are confident that the young players will identify with the new United even more, and the club is doing everything they can to give them a sense of identity in every way and make them feel at home here.

Yes, home, Xiao Yu's requirement for the club is that whether it is the coaching staff, first-team players, youth team players, or even fans, the club should give them a sense of home and a sense of belonging.

"Frankly, boss, these players you have found are very talented, and I even suspect that your intelligence sources are more accurate than our scouting network." Cassel had to give him a convincing compliment.

Xiao Yu laughed, thinking to himself, of course, I asked you to find it based on the list of local stars in England in the next few years, of course, one by one.

"By the way, Jim, I have recently received feedback from some schools, I heard that our youth players are not doing very well in school, this should be taken seriously, please ask a few tutors to help them make up for their lessons, if they fail the cultural course, don't let them play football!" Xiao Yu said undoubtedly.

There is such a thing in Ajax's youth training system, they believe that cultural courses can train players to think with their brains, which is very important for the future development of players, and the level of culture can affect the player's life, and not all young people will be able to embark on the road of professional football in the future, once they fail, Xiao Yu hopes that they can continue their studies.

It is precisely because of this that the new Manchester United academy has always attached great importance to the cultural courses of young players, and even many first-team stars, such as Essien, De Rossi and others, have also received tutoring under the arrangement of the new Manchester United.

Maybe the young players will find it difficult to accept it now, but their parents will understand that it is the best, and in the future when they grow up, they will also understand that the club's decisions are for their good!
