Odion Ighalo to Manchester United, here we go! Total agreement with Shanghai Shenhua for a loan with buy option. He’ll fly to UK during the weekend. ? #MUFC #ManUnited

Tottenham and Inter called him but the player decided for Man Utd - he’s #MUFC fan since he was a kid.

Feeling at #mufc is that Ighalo a necessary short-term option to alleviate injury situation. They're not pretending for a minute to suggest this was part of a process but Jan deals v tough. Spurs - who also pursued Ighalo - and Chelsea haven't been able to get a stop gap in
 
U18s team to play Blackburn at 11

Mee; Neville, Hockenhull, Hardley, Denham, Svidersky, Forson, Savage, Haygarth, Igbal, Sotona

Subs: Mastny, Stanley, Hoogewerf, Kai Corbertt(?), Gallagher

Youngest u18s side we have ever put out for a league match.
 
Been a tough half for this young u18s side but have done well enough to keep it at 0-0 more down to Mee in goal producing some top saves.

CM Haygarth playing up top is getting bullied big time by there CBs and isn’t providing any platform to build attacks.

Savage and Svidersky have done well defensively in CM but have been closed down well forcing there passing to be wayward.

Neville and Hockenhull been absolute dogshit liabilities at the back again bailed out by Denham
and Hardley.

On the odd occasion we have had some attacks Forson, Sotona and especially Iqbal have shown some class.

Would like to see Hoogewerf on for Haygarth up top and Kai Corbett on trial from West Ham com on in CM.
 
Haygarth and Savage off. Stanley and Corbett on 0-0 after 60 mins.

Edit: Sub Kai Corbett score a banger 62 mins in 0-1 Utd

Iqbal who has been sensational off after 75 min for Hoogewerf

FT 0-1 Utd. Huge win for this young u18s side. Great debut for new signing Corbett grabbing the winner and making a huge difference in the second half.

United u16s beat Blackburn 4-1 with Mateo Mejia scoring all 4

This is the lad we signed in the summer from Real Zaragoza who scored 68 gls for them in the Spanish youth league last season. Not a bad way to return to us from being injured all season except for 1 appearance 15 min cameo :)
 
Neville gone off on one regarding the Ighalo signing. I can see his point of view, club knew since last March Lukaku was leaving and haven't still sorted that position out.
