We are playing Crewe this afternoon. Team is:

Coll, Love, Ekangamene, Blackett, McCullough, Hendrie, Gorre, Rudge, van Velzen, Januzaj, Barmby.

Subs: Wilkinson, Jacob, Pearson, McNair, Daehli.

No scores or news as yet.
 
United Under-18s lead 1-0 at Carrington, courtesy of Adnan Januzaj's first goal for the Reds - a header.
 
The coaching staff are well represented on the touchline at Carrington. Reserves boss Warren Joyce, who sends his boys out to face Blackburn tomorrow night, has been joined by Brian McClair and Paul Scholes.
 
United Under-18s are now 2-0 up at home to Crewe, Jack Barmby bagging the second goal with a stunning 63rd-minute strike
 
Gyliano van Velzen has made it 3-0 to the Reds. Should be home and dry now, with 15 minutes remaining
 
Full-time in the Academy League: United U18s 4 Crewe Alexandra U18s 1. Good win for Paul McGuinness' boys on a sunny but cold afternoon at Carrington. (AM)

15:13 Crewe pull a goal back through Michael Koral, in the 86th minute. (AM)

15:07 Jack Rudge finishes with aplumb for the hosts' fourth goal. United U18s 4 Crewe Alexandra U18s 0.
 
Crewe's academy is usually one of the best in England right now, so good to see them winning. Apparently Barmby's goal was a screamer.
 
PS18 again on his twitter praising Januzaj. I haven't seen the highlights of this match till now, would be interesting to see.

Haven't been keeping up with the youth games this season?

How's Jack Barmby been doing, and Rothwell?

They looked our best two players by a long way in the Milk Cup.

I played against his cherry orchard team in the fai cup semi final. Best player I ever played against and scored a hat trick against us in a 4-0 win. I think the junkie pulling a needle on him after breaking into his house destroyed him completely because he was doing well with city up until then

Barmby has been disappointing so far, although he has been scoring goals.

Rothwell has been one of the more consistent performers and scored some excellent goals although he has found it difficult at times to impose himself in games.
 
Januzaj looks a talent, there are some tidy players in the team at the mo but he stood out in the games he played, likes to push on and attack and has lovely close control, Barmby worth keeping an eye on, he has drive and a strong left foot.
