McFadden shaves the crossbar.
MUFC vs Everton

Great half of football. Petrucci had the better of it over the course of the half over lingard for me. The defence is pretty solid as well.
Any links to the game?
Maciek's homepage, mate.
Cheers!
What's this about the u18's trip to Slovakia then? Did they play any games over there?
McGinty replaces Zeki Fryers
McGinty on for Fryers.
yeah they did, one that got a little media attention they won 4:3 with Bramby (sp?) hattrick and one more goal from Jack Rudge I think.
Think they won the other one too, but I'm not 100% positive.
Cheers, voland. Jack Barmby btw, Nick's son.
Close from Diouf
Pogba's already outgrown reserve football by my reckoning, very classy.
Kershaw sounds like he is pushing out a big shit anytime a challenge or shot comes off....
only realised that Barkley lad is playing for Everton. Hasnt featured at all really.

Great goal Jesse
good ball in Mcginty

Deserved goal for Lingard
Peach of a finish from Lingard, that should be the 3 points, Ravel being rested for the weekend (I live in hope).
Phew, that was just in time.
lovley finish on the stretch by Lingard. good game by him and a deserved goal.
Ben Amos also seems like the most solid keeper to come through our youth setup in a fairly long time.

That doesn't look great for Pogba.
he walked off so hope there is nothing in it.
Brilliant performance by Pogba, shame about the injury as he could find himself in contention for the bench this weekend if it's not too serious. Confused as to why Morrison hasn't had any game time, perhaps he has a knock.
If Pogba is injured, and Morrison is not. I wonder if he would now make the bench for the weekend. We've been severely depleted in midfield.
Pretty pleased with that, Pogba and Petrucci looked good in the middle, both have very good passing ranges and they are pretty solid defensively. You can see Petrucci's getting back to speed with every game after his horrendous time with injuries. Cole, Lingard and Keane were good too, very neat footballers indeed. I have high hopes for last year's youth team.
That was a good game, entertaining to watch.
I've not heard of any injuries for Morrison, plus he made the bench, so I presume he's fit. I think it's likely that he's been held back for saturday in all honesty.
Probably worth adding that it looked as though Pogba was going to play the 90 tonight, which we don't usually do if a player is making the first team squad 2 days later.
Good result there.
I think Pogba definately deserves some more appearences in the first team. Bring him on off the bench, as he is starting to out-shine the reserves. Morrison is close to the first team bench aswell.

"@RavelMorrison49 Pisss take" ... Not sure what he is on about? (as in, I'm not a native speaker and have no idea what he means with that)
Slightly annoyed that he's not been brought on tonight basically, he wants to play football and there isn't really much in that comment.
cheers!
You're putting way too nice a spin on this. Ravel is being a right little prick and it's not encouraging at all.
He's 18, there is no spin from anyone except you, he's annoyed he didn't played, he shouldn't really be putting it in the public domain but so many footballers have done this before. Ravel in being young has an excuse, he's acting like any other teenager, people like Ronaldo who pulled tantrums when they got subbed don't have an excuse but no one bats an eyelid then.
Jaysus, the reserves game threads are going downhill. No mention of a score? I'm guessing 2 nil to United. Keane and Lingard the scorers?
Correct!
What was the line-up?
Well, that was something which was posted in the 3rd or 4th comment on the first page, but since you asked so kindly:
Starting XI: Amos, Vermijl, Keane, Fornasier, Fryers, Cole, Pogba, Petrucci, Lingard, Diouf, W. Keane
Subs: Coll, McGinty, Massacci, Cofie, Morrison, Thorpe
McGinty in for Fryers in the start of the second half, Thrope for Pogba and Cofie for Diouf at the end of the game.
Is there a place these reserve games get uploaded to at some point? Didnt get to see tonight's
Aye it was. Then you started doubting whether or not it was official and nobody confirmed whether it was or not. Hence my confusion. Muchos gracias for the confirmation though. Wonder what's up with Macheda?
