Relationships are always fun at the beginning, aren’t they? Your future together seems so bright and shiny - full of rainbows and unicorns. And then reality hits you like a frying pan in the face. Promises uttered in those early warm and fuzzy moments never come to fruition. This could be your future Manchester United.
United have a longstanding tradition of having a youth team product in their match day squad — which they will remind you of over and over … and over again. Being the savvy character that he is, Mourinho came armed with a list of all the players he selflessly gave debuts to ease concerns about the “one lie repeated many times”.
Unsurprisingly no one *actually* saw this list when he was waving it brazenly about the press room. He eventually handed over the list of players he spotted and ‘gave a chance’ to. So who were those hidden gems that JM unearthed and gave to the world?
