Man Utd youngsters to continue in Carling Cup semi-final

Submitted by Anonymous on Fri, 12/04/2009 - 17:44

Manchester United will play the kids in the Carling Cup semi-final clash with local rivals City.

However, with City desperate to win their first trophy since 1976 and United supporters equally keen to stop them, there had been a feeling Sir Alex Ferguson might tinker with his line-up to give it a much stronger look.

Ferguson's assistant Mike Phelan does not see a need for change.

"We will continue to use a certain set of players that we have done in the past," he said.

"We never go into a football match looking to lose a football match.

"But our policy has been to give young talented players the opportunity to play in competition. This is just another step for them."
