It’s been a busy two weeks for the Reserves and the Academy since pre-season started. Three games have been played, two more players have left on loan and one permanently, players already out on loan have been performing for their new clubs, the Milk Cup squad has been announced, various league fixtures have been announced, a player has joined on trial and there has been a touch of off-field controversy too.

I wanted to keep my nose out of this debate; it’s been discussed too many times now. With no live United football and an open domestic transfer window it’s being run again. Berbatov.
