Macheda's got himself another couple of braces against Doncaster and Bournemouth, that's 9 goals in 12 games for Birmingham.
Maybe he's finally found his feet? Not suggesting he'll be ready to return to United or anything, but higher level Championship performer?

I've added a running poll to the thread to make it a little more revealing, Nick Powell I regard as a given next year as I refuse to accept that we'll be selling him without giving him a shot. He'll get a chance or two next year I'm sure. Also, I obviously didn't add every single youth player, just the ones that have made a big impression and/or I've actually seen play a good number of times. I hardly see any of the under 18 games anymore so there's definitely scope to enlarge, though I'm not exactly sure how to edit a poll

Some of the kids look so talented.
I can't wait to see them tearing it up when they sign for Fulham.

Pearson reminds me a little of Robbo...maybe his size and the way he runs...would be great if he got anywhere close to that... ...and Charni? well big strong, comfortable on the ball...if he could score too he would be fairly similar to a certain P*gb*

Both of these aspects will give him a better shot than Tunners-who-is-better-than-Strootman. If ever there was an ideal time for this lad to step up, it's in the next few seasons. This season's gone, Moyes would literally avoid slack from me if he gave a good number of our youth players a shot till the end of the season. If we're 2/3-0 up, stick him/them on and give them a reason to be hopeful of making it here. Also, yeah:

Just watching the game at the moment on MUTV. It's 0-0 at half-time. Edit: Spurs on top so far and Amos is having a great game.

United 1-0 up. Another cracker from James Wilson.

Great 1-0 win for United's U21's at Spurs tonight. It was a backs to the wall job which is entirely understandable given the number of players on loan, and the age of our team.
James Wlison notched another goal and I would hope he gets a full first team home game before the end of the season.
Other notable performances were Amos in goal and Ekangemene in central defence.
Joyce and Butt have done a great job with the resources at their disposal and I would happily see them swop with Moyes and Round for the rest of the season.
