FA Premier Reserve League
Leeds United 0 Manchester United 2 Elland Road, Leeds Johnny Evans scored his first goal for the Reserves as Ricky Sbragia's side overcame Leeds United at Elland Road. Giuseppe Rossi also netted a penalty as United bounced back last week's shock home defeat to Sunderland with a deserved win over a strong Whites side. Gerard Pique had already thumped a header against Neil Sullivan's post when Rui Marques rashly brought down Lee Martin inside the area after 11 minutes. Rossi duly converted the kick for his second goal of the season, sending Sullivan the wrong way. 17-year-old Evans doubled United's lead 11 minutes later as he glanced home Markus Neumayr's corner. The hosts rarely threatened, and Sullivan had to be alert to deny Martin and Kenny Cooper establishing a three-goal lead before the interval. The second half saw few clear-cut chances, although United were given a huge boost by the return of Sylvan Ebanks-Blake as a second-half substitute. United: Lee, Simpson (Shawcross 88), Pique, J Evans, Bardsley, R Jones, Neumayr, Gibson, Martin (S Evans 88), Cooper (Blake 74), Rossi. Substitutes: Zieler, Rose. -- Great to see Blake back in action! |

Campbell Strike Not Enough For Reds Youngsters
FA Academy Premier League Manchester United 1 Newcastle United 1 Trafford Training Ground, Carrington United's Under18s remain unbeaten so far this season, but they had to battle back from 1-0 down to claim a point on Saturday. Newcastle, managed by former West Ham boss Glenn Roeder, took the lead on 13 minutes when Andy Carroll scored with a header from six yards out after Phil Cave's cross. United upped the pressure on the visitors after that, with Fraizer Campbell - top scorer last season for the Reds - watched numerous first-half chances go begging. The striker, who turns 18 this week, was United's main goal threat throughout and was not to be denied for long. Six minutes after the interval, Campbell burst through on goal and chipped Fraser Forster in the Newcastle goal to give United a belated but well-deserved equaliser. Paul McGuinness' side piled forward and should have been rewarded with a winner. Again Campbell was the focal point of the attack, and had he done better with a shot midway through the second half, the Reds would have clinched all three points. The Huddersfield-born striker blazed his shot over the bar as the visitors managed to hold out for a draw. United: Zieler; Cathcart, Chester, Shawcross (Moran, 67), K. Lee; C. Evans (Gibson, 65), Hewson, Rose, Sean Evans, Campbell, Bryan (Derbyshire, 65). Sub not used: Crockett (GK) Report by Ben Hibbs. |

The Under 18's were wasteful in front of goal and should've won the game by four or five.
Attacking midfielder Sam Hewson had a chance in the 1st half from a cross by Sean Evans but slightly put off by the on rushing Newcastle keeper he headed the ball wide past the post. Campbell was the main culprit, after scoring a neat equalizer with the outside of his right foot he had a couple of great opportunities to put United ahead and should've had a hat-trick but gloriously blazed both chances high and wide. |

WTF?!? Is the world coming to an end?
Miller Calls The Tune In Comfortable Win Manchester Senior Cup Manchester United 4 Stockport County 1 Ewen Fields, Hyde United notched their second consecutive Senior Cup win with a comfortable victory at Ewen Fields. Irish midfielder Liam Miller was instrumental for the hosts, scoring two goals and dominating midfield in an impressive second half display. United took the lead after just 12 minutes as Sylvan Ebanks-Blake continued his comeback from a broken leg with his first competitive goal since February. The Cambridge-born striker reached Lee Martin's left-wing cross before the visitors' defence before calmly slotting the ball home. While County battled gamely for the remainder of the first half, United put the game to bed soon after the interval. Miller scored his first goal after 52 minutes before American striker Kenny Cooper continued his recent goalscoring form with a scorching third goal just after the hour mark. The burly forward picked the ball up full 30 yards from goal before picking his spot and hammering a shot into the top corner of the County goal. Adam Le Fondre pulled one back for the visitors shortly afterwards, but United kept County at arm's length before Miller put the icing on the cake two minutes from time. The ex-Celtic star notched his second goal with a fine curling free-kick as Ricky Sbragia's men bounced back from last week's Lancashire Cup defeat at the hands of Oldham. United: Steele, Bardsley, Simpson, J Evans (Pique, 42), Shawcross, R Jones, Neumayr, Miller, Ebanks-Blake (Cooper, 46), Campbell, Martin (Rossi, 70). |

Remo Staubli,defender from FC Zurich and U-17 national team seems to be a big talent from what i've heard. The biggest starlet plays for Chelsea if i'm not wrong, Elmer is his name.

daniel rose seems very talented. two goals against 'boro. remember seeing him for the u18s once when he was still a school-boy. haven't seen him since due to lack of MUTV. but he now captains the u18s from his central midfield position.

Antwerp's Hussain now at City!
Didn't notice this.
MANCHESTER – Qatar midfielder Hussain Yasser has revealed an overwhelming desire to succeed with his current employers at Manchester City – the latest club in the young international’s European adventure. Hussain enjoyed two productive seasons with Belgian outfit Antwerp, who he joined following a trial with City’s bitter rivals Manchester United and after impressing boss Stuart Pearce in pre-season friendlies against Tranmere and Macclesfield joined the Blues on a six-month contract in August. |
