"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

Looking forward to Saturdays double header. Under 18s v Chelsea then the Villa game, especially seeing Brahim Diaz in the flesh for the first time.

Under 18s are 3-1 down at half time and have got progressively worse as the half has gone on. Great pace from Nemane down the right set up the equaliser for Nmecha but crikey we've been poor since then.

Wow. Stunning individual goal from Brahim makes it 2-3. Best description would be Messi like!

Now 3-3, thanks to more skill from Brahim drawing a foul in the box. Penalty despatched by Nmecha

So much better this second half. 2 subs Sancho and Dele-Bashiru definitely made a difference along with moving Brahim to in behind Nmecha.

I don't know whether this is the right link but Brahim scored a marvellous goal against Chelsea today.

Seeing Kane score today and Rashford scoring last weekend, and seeing both Bony and Agüero in front of Nacho, it feels like all the talk about our brill academy is just that, talk. Am I just bitter or does anyone else think the same? I'm open to being bitter.

Just look at the link I posted. Brahim is a marvellous prospect.

Brahim's only 16 but he's a fine prospect. We need to be patient.

3-0 up at home against Villa and we bring on our young promising Manu Garcia... Oh, I mean, Sterling, Raheem.
