I will be extremely interested to see how much publicity it gets given it's a more recognized trophy now.
All I know is if it was you know who be all over TV, radio and papers.

Sky have made very little mention of it today, I bet if some other clubs had won it they would have had a full report.

Probably get more media attention once the trophy has been given to the team at the last game of their season which, incidentally, is against Liverpool. Don't think there is any conspiracy going on there, to be honest I couldn't tell you who won the reserve league in any given season. It's never really had much exposure in the media despite it being revamped for this season.

Interesting comment from Koeman discussing Man Utd's interest in Lukaku, ""I have been there as a player too. I know what it is like when a player has big ambitions.
"But if we really want, we can make the players stick to their contract. That decision will eventually be made by the board. " Yes he may well leave, but I am positive we will get every penny we deserve for him with 2 years left on his contract and statements from the manager like this. He will not be sold cheaply.

Keeping hold of him is a dangerous game to play. After next summer despite how well he plays, he will start to recede in value as there will be less than 2 years left on his contract. So by then we would either need to be in a position to satisfy his aspirations or be prepared to take a smaller fee in the summer after next season.
I'd like him to stay, but he seems hell bent on leaving so why not just let him go and use the money to build a team not so reliant on one player to score goals.

Utd are similar to Everton the way they use Zlatan and us Lukaku, Rooney coming back into their team will benifit Utd, which leads me wondering how we would do without relying our style of play to suit Lukaku and if other players would be more active with a different striker other than Rom, if we get offered silly money knowing he wants away, I would take a crazy bid now, bring in another Striker, bring Rooney home along with Siggerson, a centre half and a goal keeper for starters.

On the goalkeeper situation, people keep talking about Leno, Hart, Pickford and Heaton all of whom are already number one at their respective clubs. Added to that they are either good shot stoppers or safe hands when the ball is in the air - none of them are the whole package.
Does anyone know if we've looked at Begovic? Proven quality keeper who only gets cup games but for me has been one of the best in the prem for years. He may be happy picking up medals for playing a few cup games but I would be well pleased if we could bring him in.

He's number one in Italy and, from what I've seen, has a load of options home and abroad to be number one at a CL club. I personally rate Begovic more anyway, particularly from what I've seen of Hart during his loan.
