A strong defender who is with the United Academy that has produced so many top players over the last few years. Calm and assured, he reads the game well from centre back and featured against Northern Ireland last month.
Name: Ryan Tunnicliffe
DOB: 30/12/92
Club: Manchester United
The Reds midfielder can be useful at either end of the pitch and is a tenacious player who also has the ability to play. Wore the captain’s armband last time out and will be looking to impress again this evening if selected.
Tunnicliffe's been wearing the captain's armband despite playing a year above his age group.
