United are away to Bolton Wanderers in tonight's cup game with Pogba expected to make his reserves debut in the starting lineup.

Pogba earns cup call-up

Sixteen-year-old Paul Pogba is expected to be handed his first start for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Reserves this evening as the Reds meet Bolton at the County Ground, Leyland.

The Frenchman, who signed from Le Havre in the summer, has scored three times at Under-18 level and will now hope to make his mark in the Manchester Senior Cup.

A confident, composed and skilful midfielder, Pogba’s most recent run-out came in the FA Youth Cup last Thursday where he sent United on the way to victory after just 57 seconds.

Pogba isn’t the only youngster travelling to Leyland this evening. In fact, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s 16-man squad includes 10 players who have turned out for United's U-18s this season.

The Reds will be captained by Norwegian midfielder Magnus Eikrem, while Solskjaer will rely on Sam Hewson, Ben Amos, Oliver Gill, Oliver Norwood and Cameron Stewart to bring Reserves experience to the table.

The match kicks off at 19:00 and will be screened live on MUTV.

United squad: Amos, Zieler; Tunnicliffe, McGinty, Wootton, Gill, Fornasier, Masacci; Pogba, Stewart, Hewson, Norwood, Eikrem (c), Petrucci; Ajose, Cofie

I think Fornasier, Masacci and Cofie are named in a reserves team for the first time too.

Nani Nana · 14th December 2009, 15:52

Well deserved call-up

R.Nilsson7 · 14th December 2009, 15:54

This is relevant to my interests.

6 16 year olds! Dear tiny, infant Jesus, let there be a stream.

MPTutd · 14th December 2009, 16:03

The only downside is that with Eikrem, Hewson and Norwood in the side, it means he is unlikely to get much game time.

That sounds so wrong.

datura · 14th December 2009, 16:19

Interesting squad, from that you can assume that Tosic, Welbeck and DeLaet are with the first team squad and maybe Matt James as well (unless he's picked up an injury too).

You can assume that all the reserves will start, but hard to guess the rest of the side. Bolton play very similarly to the first team so will be a real test for the younger players coping with the physicality and pace of the game.

We weren't referring to the Jesus part, Elliot...

Don't mind Flawless and I, our minds are obviously not savoury.

You fucking disgust me. Wouldn't be surprised if you went one further and interpreted the stream part as some sort of watersport reference, you filthy perv. Rumor has it Pete Townshend's got wicked photoshop skills. It all makes sense now.

Its a shame theres no streams for MUTV at the moment, alot of quality action on it these days

Top · 14th December 2009, 18:23

There's a stream according to myp2p - it's a new one though, so not sure whether or not it really shows the game. We'll just have to wait and see.

Apparently it's a 4-5-1 with Stewart up front.

pillory · 14th December 2009, 18:45

A few minutes ago Norwegian Magnus (19) became the world's youngest ever top ranked chess player. Will he also become the youngest ever player to score five freekicks in one game in the MSC?

samabachan · 14th December 2009, 19:02

Strange that Pogba is starting ahead of Petrucci...

These games tend to be rough enough so Id say they wanted Pogba in there ahead of Petrucci for obvious reasons. we'll probably see the italian come on around the hour mark

R.Nilsson7 · 14th December 2009, 19:07

Stewart header cleared off the line.

Not in the formation we are playing, Pogba is playing quite deep. Petrucci is still working his way back from injury and was a doubt for the Youth Cup game.

Lively start, Stewart unlucky with a header.

samabachan · 14th December 2009, 19:08

On an unrelated note, does anyone else have an irrational hatred of David Stowell? He reminds me of that ginger gimp in the orange adverts at the pictures.

datura · 14th December 2009, 19:12

Spawny goal from the Pog at the far post again!

I think he scored with his right arse cheek.

R.Nilsson7 · 14th December 2009, 19:12

Pogba!

Top · 14th December 2009, 19:12

Nice simple tap in. A bit lucky looking at the replay.

1-0 Pogba goal on his debut

samabachan · 14th December 2009, 19:13

Great delivery

Tumbling-Dice · 14th December 2009, 19:13

1-1

Decotron · 14th December 2009, 19:13

1-1

Top · 14th December 2009, 19:13

Not so class...

datura · 14th December 2009, 19:14

1-1 good hit, might have taken a slight deflection. Ajose caught on the ball.

arjwiz · 14th December 2009, 19:14

Pogba is quite good.

Is Febian Brandy still out on loan?

samabachan · 14th December 2009, 19:14

Flippin eck, that's a cracker from the Bolton lad!

Brandy is still at Gillingham, but out injured at the moment.
