Back in 1995, when SAF replaced the whole United team with kids. In the 1st Premier League match, United lost to Aston Villa 3-1. Alan Hansen criticised SAF " You'll never win anything with kids". However the young lads won all the next 5 matches and became the premier league champions that season. Among those kids were Neville brothers, Beckham, Nicky Butt, Paul Scholes and Giggs.
Now on 2009, the same thing happened, United already through to the Champions League knock-out stage and SAF let the kids to play against Besiktas. The kids failed to make an impact and lost 1-0. The media claimed that these kids have no future. But last night on Carling Cup match, once again SAF proved that his kids are prodigy. They managed to beat Spurs 2-0 and the goals came from of all people, Darron Gibson. The only Man United midfielder who can strike out of penalty box after scholes.
In the future, United are going to be very strong. Beware!
