For the first time tonight one must say that’s a poor bit of defending. Four players around Mfuni but no-one really marks him.
U18s: United vs Man City | Premier League Cup Winners!

That's been coming. Just let them come onto us too much without enough of a counter threat
Come on Lacy. That was poor
87’
Lacey runs into the box but the shot is easily blocked. Perhaps the wrong decision from Lacey.

Brilliant tackle from Williams. Love his engine and attitude.
Four minutes of added time.
90+1’
Another good save from Harrison, near post this time.
McAllister booked.

Didn`t know this was on until 10min, started watching, excited to watch us. Now i am falling to sleep watching City pass the ball around with sidefooters, back and forth. Jesus they are equally boring at this level. Hope we can hold on now!
A potential head injury nicely ignored by the ref.
Great save Harrison
90+4’
Brilliant save from Harrison!
Brits with an equally important save at the other end.

Elyh Harrison take a bow.
Brilliant!!!
Champeones, champeones, olé olé olé!
Great result against a very talented side
Absolutely, his performance as important as Wheatley’s goals. A team full of strong performances tonight. Not one poor display there.
Great result. Bit tense at the end; Harrison probably saved them
LET'S GO!! A DOUBLE BY THE U18s this season.
Harrison has won us this game at the end. String of crucial saves.

Sometimes you need that. That’s what keepers are for. As Keane would say: ”That’s his job innit?”
I haven't bothered to check by the way but I'm pretty certain Ethan Wheatley will have finished as the top scorer of the competition with his 9 goals.
Still can’t get over Harrison’s heroics. Brilliant once again.
Moorehouse is also out injured, some squad.
Very well finished 2 goals from Wheatley, after that a few wasted chances on United attacks (not from him)
City dominated the ball as you'd expect and by the end there was plenty of good defending that needed to be done. The goalkeeper Harrison was as important Wheatley with the goals. He saved a few that could have gone in. League and cup, fantastic job done by Adam Lawrence

Surely we have to make sure he ends up in the first team down the line.
True, knew I missed someone. Think he’s the one with crutches out there on the pitch right now.
Very nice that Wheatley, Jackson and Amass got to be a part of the final. Very valuable experience this.
Grown 'men' booing 17 year olds as they come to collect their runners up medals. Jesus Christ.
On a very unrelated note, I'm using the editor and bumping up Wheatley's potential in FM24.
Easily Prem/Championship potential there and fecking cnuts don't have him better than League 2 potential.

Yep, take note of how classy their team behaved. Pathetic.
Typical City fans
Lovely celebrations! Congrats Adam Lawrence, Colin Little, Nick Cox and above all this brilliant team.
It was a few of the United fans, the City players done nothing wrong. Disgusting at any level of youth sports.
Yeah, booing children is honestly embarrassing behaviour.
Moorhouse looks like he's on crutches which is a bit sad. Must've suffered a setback in his recovery.

So nice to have some positive news at the club
Nice gesture from the youth coaches, U13s’ JJ Gabriel was with the squad and doing the warm-up session before kickoff with the rest of the team.
Anyone know when was the last time we did the double(or just won the league) and the squad that played in it?
We haven’t won the Premier League Cup before, this was our first one. We’ve won the North section of the U18 Premier League once before since its birth in 2012/13.
We did that in 2017/18 with the likes of Matěj Kovář, Ethan Laird, Lee O’Connor, Brandon Williams, Di’shon Bernard, Teden Mengi, James Garner, Angel Gomes, Dylan Levitt, Ethan Galbraith, Arnau Puigmal, Mason Greenwood, Largie Ramazani, Tahith Chong, D’mani Mellor, Nishan Burkart, Aidan Barlow, Dion McGhee, Millen Baars, George Tanner etc. in the team.
When you look at the level about half of those players are currently playing at, wow…. We might have something similar with the current team but it’s very hard to follow that 17/18 group in terms of development.
