More likely to be Williams RB and Devine LB imo, or Williams LB, Puigmal/Neville RB.

Also we would likely play Thompson/Carney on goal to prepare for the Youth Cup in which Fojticek is too old for it.

Is this a group stage match?

That wasn't too far away from Devine.

2-0 Greenwood - one of the most arrogant finishes I have seen :)

I guess we can sum up this first half this way: Norwich are not good at finishing - Mason Greenwood is.

Greenwood should have had 4 today.
Could have had 5 actually - but the Norwich-keeper who has had a brilliant game (and Norwich dont have a sub-goalie) is carried off the pitch. So an outfield-player in goal for Norwich now. Now the player took off his shirt again..God knows what is happening :)

Ok - Anthonius Berkeley in goal for Norwich - he is a defender :)

3-0 Puigmal - Greenwood assist. 11 minutes left to play + at least 10 minutes injury time

at this moment United and Everton both have 8-1-1 and 34-14 in goal difference - so nothing to separate the top 2

FT: 3-0. Greenwood in attack and Williams on defence probably our best players. Thompson had a good game in goal today as well.

Greenwood obviously amazing as usual, but was very impressed by Divine and Williams.
Divine's the one we got off City isn't he? I like the look of him. Greenwood has some cracking end product for a player of his age, u18s is far too easy for him.

Yes, if IRC he spent two years at City before coming to United. He was previously at Wolves.

My wit's end
Seeing Greenwood subbed for Stanley at the end was funny. He's about half Greenwood's size.
