There is a strong collaboration with Under-18s coach Darren Fletcher, especially with a significant FA Youth Cup match approaching against Peterborough United in the third round at Old Trafford on Tuesday, December 9. Tickets are currently on sale.
“Our discussions are always two-way,” Binnion remarked. “We have several key individuals involved, including myself, Stephen Torpey, Jason Wilcox, Carlos, Ruben, and of course, Fletch.”
“My discussions with him are crucial, not just for the Under-18s, but also for the Under-21s. His insights, along with Colin Little, are invaluable, making it a truly collaborative effort.”
“I know ‘collaborative’ is a buzzword, but it’s essential. If we don’t work together, we risk disappointing the players and failing to prepare them properly for the first team. It’s vital that we are all aligned in identifying which players need opportunities, whether through first-team training or by getting game time.”
