This summer/next season will be interesting for the U23's/Youth Team depending on incomings and such. Few players need challenging, to see if they can progress, with quite a few not good enough.
U23's:
Garner - Could do with a loan move to get some regular football, unless we are going to give him the time (which might do more harm than good). Decent Championship club preferably. Or Promotion/title chasing League 1 where he will be a starter.
Chong - Needs to be in the First Team squad & on the bench/coming on regularly, otherwise loan him too. He needs top level football to progress. Holland maybe?
Gomes - Same as Chong. If Mata goes, give him his spot. If it doesn't work, then loan him too as he also needs top level football to progress. One of this seasons promoted teams if they will guarantee him the games. Or a promotion chasing Championship team. Or a decent German club.
Greenwood - Leave him where he is for the first half of the season. Give him another season playing in the UEFA Youth League (if we are in it) and around the first team squad with sub apps & starts in the League Cup. Then a loan for the 2nd half of the season.
O'Connor - Needs a loan move to get some regular football. Has the potential, but need to see whether he can step up. Would look for a similar move to Garner.
Warren - Same as O'Connor.
Barlow - Same as O'Connor.
Henderson - Looks a decent keeper. Depending on what happens with De Gea, it might be best to loan him out again. Hopefully he helps get Sheffield Utd promoted and they want him as their #1 for the PL next season.
Buffonge, Burkart, Baars, Bohui, Woolston - Don't think they are the required level. Keep to bulk out the U23's unless they want to leave or a bid comes in for them. Kovar, Fojticek, Ercolani, Olosunde, Dearnley - Same as above. CBJ, O'Hara, Mitchell, Wilson, Whelan, Willock - Same as above.
Gribbin, Hamilton, Tanner, Poole, Sang - Difficult ones. - Gribbin - Looked a great player before injury. Loan him out and see how he gets on. - Hamilton - Looks decent, so perhaps as understudy to Shaw? Unless a decent loan move comes up for him. - Tanner - Looks a good prospect, so perhaps a loan move to see how he gets on. - Poole - Looked a good player a couple of years ago. Hard to judge at times. Can be immense one game, then do something daft the next. A less injury prone Jones? - Sang - Looks a decent prospect, so perhaps a loan move to see how he gets on.
Taylor - Bit harsh to get rid after beating cancer. Keep for now and see how he gets on.
Youth:
Of the ones that should be moving up:
Bernard - Looks a prospect. See how he gets on in the U23's, with maybe a loan move to see if he will progress. Bughail-Mellor - Difficult one. Perhaps see how he gets on out on loan? Or leave in the U23s to see how he does. Levitt - Another that looks a prospect but how far can he progress? Loan move might be best. McGhee - Has looked good in the odd patch. Keep to bulk out the U23's for now. Puigmal - Yet another that is difficult to judge. Not quite ready for the first team. Loan move to Spain perhaps? Ramazani - Doubt he will make it at United. Keep to bulk out the U23's for now. Thompson - Depending on what happens with the other keepers in the U23's, either keep for now or loan and see how he goes. Traore - Bit like Puigmal. Looks good at times. Loan move might be best to see if that brings it out of him. Williams - Looks a decent player. Keep him around the first team, with maybe League cup apps at the start. Loan for 2nd half of season if necessary.
We really could do with some investment at youth level, especially to make the U23's competitive again, but we know that won't happen. Should be allowing some unused first team players to drop down to help mentor the youngsters, especially in games.
Could do with getting rid of Sbragia & Ryan and bringing in new managers at both levels (Ryan will probably be going in the summer anyway). Should also copy the likes of Barca in making sure all the teams below the first team play the same style, so the step up is easier at each level. This would require some forward thinking/planning (along with a cohesive recruitment plan), so probably not going to happen under the gimps.

Lovely goal!!!
Williams floated a ball into the box and Galbraith stole in ahead of the keeper with his first touch and tucked it home with his second.
1-1, 38 mins gone

City scored early in the 2nd half from some more poor defending.
United just equalised from the spot on 80 mins.
