Default Milk Cup

I see our young team is doing well in the Milk cup. Won 4-0, 4-0, and 5-1.

I'm not too clued up when it comes to these players but I've heard good things about quite a few of them, namely: Federico Macheda, Oliver Norwood, Evandro Brandao, Joshua King, Nicholas Ajose..I also believe the new lad from Roma, Petrucci, is there. No idea how he's performed though.

Anyone know how good this lot are?

This is probably the best team for a while imo.


Not seen it all but Macheda, James and Petrucci have all impressed.

There's often coverage on BBC NI news.

But on this subject, the venue needs to change imo. A few teams from down my way were attacked again by sectarian £#%&!ers.

Very different from Rossi; he's quick, skilful and quite powerful.

Needs to work on his finishing, though.

James has been player of the tournament so far.

Don't know this James at all, what position does he play?

Has he come right through our system or been brought in from another club?

James looks a quality player.

Centre Mid, or Centre back if needed.


He's captain, looks like a man playing against kids.

United have reached the final now, beat Watford 4-2.

2 goals from Joshua King, and 1 each from Macheda and Brandao. 17 goals in 4 games is £#%&!ing impressive.



Youngsters reach Milk Cup final


United's goal-laden march to the Milk Cup final continued on Thursday evening, as Paul McGuinness' young side hit another four goals to win a semi-final clash with Watford.

The Hornets were beaten 4-2 at Ballymena's Showgrounds, taking United's goal haul to a staggering 17 in just four games in the competition.

McGuinness' young charges now meet South Coast Bayern in Friday night's final (KO 20:15 BST), after the Americans overcame Hearts in a penalty shootout in Thursday's other semi-final.

United's 16-year-old Norwegian forward Joshua King scored twice in the last four tie, while Federico Macheda and Evandro Brandao grabbed the other goals to set up a place in the final of the prestigious youth tournament - now in its 25th year.

The Reds will be keen to avenge last year's final defeat to Brazilian side Fluminese, but United face tough opponents in South Coast Bayern, who knocked out the holders at the quarter final stages.
