Squad: Borthwick-Jackson, Byrne, Carroll, De Brito, Dearnley, Greenop, Henderson, Johnson, Makela, Mitchell, Rashford, Savill, Scott, Smith, Tuanzebe, Williams.

Cameron Borthwick-Jackson, Demetri Mitchell, Dean Henderson and Marcus Rashford played in the u18 Future Cup in Amsterdam, so I take it they're highly rated.

Mitchell's goal against Bayern in Amsterdam:

That Ghana team beat Grol 2-0, PSV 3-2 and Liverpool 3-0 so that should be a tough one. They need one more win from their last 2 to be winners of thag group

But Grol lost 0-7 to Marseille, 0-4 to PSV and 0-2 to Ghana so that should be a win.

So realistically we need to avoid defeat against Ghana - and beat Grol, and we should have a good chance of qualifying as number 2

Liverpool yet to score a goal after 3 matches - 2 goalless draws and 0-3 against Ghana.

Real Madrid with 1 win and 2 defeats from their first 2 matches in the other group.

From the official site:

FA Ghana games not part of the official competition

02-06-2012

The tournament committee has decided that the results of the games of Ghana will not be part of the final ranking of 23rd International Marveld Tournament. Reason for this decision is that FA Ghana plays with a number of players older than the allowed age category. FA Ghana will continue playing in the tournament. All teams have been informed about this decision.

Management International Marveld Tournament

Apparently, their bench gave it away

Faustin Makela must be very highly rated he was only born in 1999 as far as I know

Lost 2-0 against the pensioners but we should have few problems beating SV Grol who've lost all their games so far.

Just got a reply from @dilynux that Makela is looking really good, United winning 3-1 against Grol.

Defeated Feyenoord in semi finals. Makela has been great in every match according to a twitterer who has been watching the tourney.

Shouldn't that be Borthwick-Jackson, not Bonthwick-Jordan? I think the Marveld site got it wrong.

Posters at ManUtdTalk [ http://www.manutdtalk.com/index.php?threads/marveld-tournament-2012.42095/page-2 ] say that:

Borthwick-Jackson is back row, third from left.
Marcus Rashford is front row, second from left.
Demetre Mitchell is front row, fourth from right.
