Sir Alex Ferguson has explained the lack of Scots in his youth system.
Darren Fletcher apart, Fergie admitted he has no other Scots coming through because they lose out on up and coming talent to the Old Firm.
He told the Scottish Sun: "I don't have any young Scots coming through at youth level.
"We have never been great with young Scots anyway because Celtic and Rangers get them at 14 before we can.
"We did have Darren Fletcher at the age of 14 or 15 and we'd a lot of Scots until the academy system started and we can no longer take them down.
"If Celtic or Rangers get them before the age of 16 then there is no chance for us anyway."
