Freescoring Reds Remain Top Of The League
FA Academy Premier League (North) Manchester United 4 Wolves 0 Saturday 10 December, Carrington United's under-18s continued their rich vein of form on Saturday with a 4-0 win over Wolves. The victory is their fifth consecutive league win - the sixth without defeat - and means they will return from the winter break in January as league leaders. Danny Rose has been in fine goalscoring form recently, and it took just nine minutes for the 17-year-old midfielder to grab his fourth goal in three games to United on their way. However, United could not build on their early breakthrough until two minutes after half-time. Fraizer Campbell, 18, found the net with his sixth goal in five games to make it 2-0 to the Reds. Two late goals from Sam Hewson and Sean Evans ensured another victory for Paul McGuinness' side. It means United have scored 22 goals in their last five league games and keeps them above Blackburn in the league due to the Reds' superior goal difference. The Under-18s do not resume league duties until 7 January when they take on Bolton at Carrington. But before the Reds youngsters sign off for the festive period, they take on Birmingham in the FA Youth Cup third round on Thursday. The match, at Birmingham's St Andrews stadium, kicks off at 7pm and will be shown live on MUTV. United: Zieler, Lee K., Cathcart, Evans J., Lea M., Gray, Rose (Evans C, 46), Gibson (Mullan, 46), Hewson, Evans S., Campbell (Burns 60). Subs not used: Fagan , Chester. Report by Ben Hibbs. |

FA Youth Cup result
Fot those of you without MUTV......I went to the 3rd round tie at Birmingham last night where United won comfortably 2-0 with two Sean Evans goals.
The United team lined up: Zieler, Lee, Lea, Cathcart, J. Evans, Gibson, Gray, Hewson, Campbell, S. Evans, Rose. Subs: Mullan (8), Amos, Burns (9), Shawcross, C. Evans (7) United dominated the tie with Cathcart and captain Jonny Evans particularly impressive in central defence. Zieler hardly had a save to make and the United midfield, although starting slowly, finally got their passing game together and the Birmingham side were mainly on the back foot. S. Evans scored his first goal shortly before half time after good work from David Gray on the right wing who cleverly beat his man and pulled the ball back for Sean to hit the net from just inside the box. Danny Rose was playing on the left side of midfield but moved into the centre when Mullan replaced Hewson. With Mullan playing wide left, Rose started to dictate play along with Gibson. Rose had an excellent game keeping the game ticking over with simple movement and never giving the ball away. Fraizer Campbell worked his socks off with tireless running and United deservedly took a 2-0 lead when Evans scored his second from a tight angle after running on to a through ball. He was a constant thorn for the Birmingham defence and could easily have scored three or four. In the last 15 minutes, United dominated proceedings and could have won by a larger margin if all our chances had been taken. Towards the end, Irish Schoolboy Corry Evans replaced David Gray and at only 15 years and 137 days old.....became one of the youngest players to appear in our Youth team. Certainly one of the youngest for many years..... Players of note last night included Cathcart, J. Evans (man of the match!), Rose and S. Evans..... We now play Sunderland away in the next round in mid January...date to be confirmed..... |

Mads Timm
FYI.....
Mads was at Carrington last Saturday training with some of the injured players so has obviously returned from Lyn in Oslo. Apparently he did not get many starts in Norway and so needs to get fit.......I expect him to feature in the Reserves in the new year or go out somewhere else on loan.... It's a shame that someone with so much talent doesn't have a Danny Simpson like attitude to go with it! He signed a four-year contract two seasons back.....so United still have him for another two campaigns...... I don't expect him to get any chances with our first team...... More info to follow...... |

From a chap in the Newbie forum, youth thread.
The Cardinal Newman website says that Michael Barnes will be signing schoolboy contracts with Manchester United. I assume his trials with us were successful then.

They missed by a year. He is born in 1988. And you already see him as a better player than Pique? Sounds great....
Talked to a Liverpool fan who takes great interest in talents, and he claimed that we have diamant in Gerad. He said that he were great against Liverpool reserves and that he must be at similar height as Hyypia (with other words one of the tallest defenders in the PL). |

While having a look at our talents in the defence, I can not help getting excited. Yes, we've had talented players before who has not made it, but this is quite different. McShane, who is supposed to have been great in CCC, is probably not even close to beeing our biggest talent. Hopefully he can develope in to a good back.
We also have great players in Pique and Spector who could complete eachother. J. Evans also seems like a great prospect, and we should not forget Bardsley. Richardson can probably also become a okey back. |

Maybe Tony could, when time given, come up with a description of McShane? I understand that he has been doing quite well in Brighton, but why? I seem to remember that he is quite tough, just like Wes was when he was younger. But do he have pace? How is he compared to J. Evans? He seems rather small?!
I understand that he has been taking a lot of the freekicks in defence at Brighton, so he must have a decent right/left foot? |

Yet another very promising centre back is 16 year old Craig Cathcart. Saw him in his first reserves game against Liverpool. Though he was at fault for the first goal, he recovered well to put in a good performance. He was class as well against Birmingham in the Youth Cup. He is also the Northern Ireland U17 captain.

Not sure if he is fast as there wasn't much to go on in the 2 games. But definitely quick and assured. Comfortable on the ball and can bring it forward just as well as Johnny Evans. Not as tall as Johnny but not short either. Anyway, at 16 he has some growing still to do. Johnny Evans is the N.Ireland U19 Captain. So actually, in the centre of the Utd U18 defence now is a pair of |
