Manchester United U18s coach Paul McGuinness says Northern Ireland youngster Chris Curran is one to watch.

He told manutd.com: "What you find is that some of the players who struggled in their first year have the summer to reflect, they've grown up a bit and thought it over. Now all of a sudden they're the older lads and they really start to show their ability.

"That's happened with Chris Curran. He played his best ever game against Norwich. I was very pleased for him because he's a very determined boy and he made a big jump in standard coming here from playing football in Northern Ireland. At times it was hard for him, but he's stuck at it and he's improving slowly. We hope that continues."
