The end result is Man U have produced almost no one, and yet Fergie wants credit for it anyways because he bought them.

And actually, if you want an example of a top end club that develops and then keeps its top end talent, look no further than Bayern Munich, they're doing it right now.
Their players who took part today

Neuer - Not Bayern
Van Byuten - Not Bayern
Badstuber - Not Bayern
Boatend - Not Bayern
Ribery - Not Bayern
Muller - Bayern
Boateng - Not Bayern
Lahm - Not Bayern
Tymoschuk - Not Bayern
Peterson - Not Bayern
Alaba - Not Bayern
Gomez - Not Bayern
Schweignsteiger - Bayern

Thats 2 of 13
