You dont know football do you ?
The Nevilles, Nicky Butt, Scholes, Giggs, Beckham all came from the famed United youth academy class of '92 that won the FA Youth Cup for United....going back in the olden day, Best, Charlton, Duncan Edwards & rest of the late Busby Babes, Mark Hughes, Norman 'scourge of the scousers' Whiteside. Today we still have Wes Brown, John O'Shea and Darren Fletcher from the youth sides doing a damn fine job when asked, with the Evans brothers, Danny Simpson, Chris Eagles, Craig Cathcart, and others coming fast.
All are home grown.
I can always quote Alan 'Scouse-head' Hansen quoting that 'You never win anything with kids' at the start of the 1995/96 season after Fergie had surprisingly sold some old stars and used the Class of '92 in the side, before ending up winning the League and FA Cup DOUBLE a few months later.
Before ANYONE has the audacity of questing Manchester United Football Club and its youth program, shut up and look at the sides made by Sir Matt Busby and Sir Alex Ferguson and realise that WE made this whole concept of youth football development in the first place that gave birth to the Busby Babes in the 1950s, and the Busby Boys in the 1960s to the side that kept on producing talent in the dark eras, to the boys that pwned the Premiership in the 1990s under Sir Alex and won the Treble and is still THE team to beat in England.

Dont question my belief in Manchester United without knowing our history. I've been a United fan since a long time, and a proper Manc since 2004. You wont get someone as fierce, as passionate, as loyal to this club here than me, my dear humble simple scouser.
That's the reason why those soft-spots that I have for other teams like Barca and Inter and Napoli and Dortmund are merely that, soft and spotty with no real preference or importance in front of United.
