The team need them so dearly but it's not acceptable to prevent them from representing their country. United needs to find alternatives.

SHAME. YOU WANT TO STOP YOUR AFCON PLAYERS ? INSTEAD OF GIVING YOUR ACADEMY BOYS CHANCE TO PLAY YOU'RE RATHER SENDING THEM OUT, LOOK AT CHALESA, UPON ALL THEIR SIGNINGS THEY'RE STILL USING ACADEMY BOYS. AMORIN IS A SCAM COACH.
