Nowhere in the world like it – academy chiefs celebrate Man Utd pipelineBy Simon Peach, PA Chief Football WriterManchester United academy chiefs Nick Cox and Travis Binnion believe a bright future lies ahead at a club where youth development is unlike anywhere else in the world. From Duncan Edwards, Sir Bobby Charlton and George Best to Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo, United have reaped the rewards of their focus on youth development. I think we’ve got good players, we’ve got good coaches, good staff. “But the pride is also in the fact that I think youth development means something more at Man United than it does at any other football club. There’s nowhere else in the world like it for youth development, I don’t think.”Those sentiments are echoed by Binnion, United’s head of player development and coaching.
