Man Utd coach Meulensteen happy seeing Welbeck, Cleverley establish themselves

Manchester United coach Rene Meulensteen is delighted seeing their homegrown players make it in the first team.

Meulensteen actually coached Danny Welbeck as a 12 year-old.

"Absolutely. As a club we can develop players who can be world class. That's the level we operate on. The fact that Danny and Tom (Cleverley) have come through the ranks and become England internationals is something to be really proud of. Players like Tom and Danny have been brought up on everything about this club, the history, the tradition… they are the heartbeat of the club," he told manutd.com.
