    Man Utd just don't bring youth through anymore though, they are under too much pressure to succeed that they are always going to go with proven players, Fletcher would be lucky to get a couple of league cup games so I'm not sure what hanging around at Utd would do for his career.

    Rashford was only given the opportunity out of necessity due to a manager the club had no confidence in being given the funds to bring in other players.

    Ocean Beach Club by the looks of the orange furniture. He'll be covered in ***** by 2am once the women have all stopped looking at their reflections and the Prosecco has kicked in.

    Don't think he's out of contract. I've seen him quote saying if he's not pushing for a place at Manu then he wants to try the championship preferably with Barnsley .

    I don't know if he still owns it, he originally had it but l've seen another owner in other pics so l don't know if he's sold it on or if that's a business partner.

    Make sure you do some sit ups before going in there..

    if you're on twitter, look on Wayne Lineker's timeline with the #askwayne hashtags. Some comedy gold there.

    If Man Utd rate Fletcher that highly, why didn't they offer him a contract extension before he came to us on loan?

    If he does go somewhere else a good scenario would be that utd see us as a good club to blood their promising youngsters as well as other clubs.

    I can honestly see him coming back to us on loan. Listening to him after the play-off final I got the impression he wanted to force his way into the Man Utd picture but that may mean a season in the championship - with us.

    Not strictly true. As you say, due to circumstances, Rashford has been given his chance, there's the lad Wilson who spent time on loan at Brighton this season. Not forgetting Timothy Fosu-Mensah and Jesse Lingard who have both broken into the first team this season.

    They've given youth a fair crack this season in my opinion considering their stature.

    I reckon he's fettled more than their Gary by now. Probably lagging behind in the early 90's but steam rolling him at the minute.
