Man Utd trials for big Ngoo from Southend
tribalfootball


Manchester United have handed trials to Southend United centre-forward Michael Ngoo.

Ngoo helped United win the Milk Cup in Northern Ireland last week and is chasing a deal with the club's academy.

The 16 year-old stands at 6ft 4 and has been likened to new Tottenham centre-forward Peter Crouch.

Luke Hobbs, Southend's academy boss, told his club's website of Ngoo: "Michael has improved so much during the last 12 months. He is effective in the air and a good finisher. Michael is a coach's dream.

"When Dean Austin watched this team play against QPR before Christmas his opinion was that Michael was very similar to Peter Crouch when Crouch was a scholar at Tottenham and Austin was a pro there. Michael is a player with so much potential. "

He looked pretty impressive during the Milk Cup, good feet and good vision. He was a little raw and wasteful at times, but overall gave a good impression, none more so than in the final with a neatly taken goal and a great assist.

Cofie - Ngoo



Our Academy are building an army of monsters!

Not if you add players like Lingard, Cole and Gorre to that, they are midgets!

Thorpe, Johnstone, Wootton and McGinty aren't exactly small either

Gorre is still only 14 though

I was just thinking back to the Academy game v Blackburn.

I hope we sign the lad up, I think he deserve a lot of credit for his performances in the Milk Cup and considering he was on trial think he did enough to get a contract.

I think that his off the ball movement was really good, he was good on the ball and the only real criticism would be his final ball. But that will improve with age.

Stop trying to steal 032Devil's thunder, Datura.

Michael Ngoo is a kind of player that would probably make the fans tear their hair off in frustration half the time - and celebrate him the other half.

I can only picture him waltz past 3 defenders and then missing a 5 yard-pass

Any word on if we're signing this lad?
