Loanees complete fantastic weekend for United

As if going top of the league by thrashing Blackburn Rovers 7-1, while our rivals dropped points wasn’t enough, several red youngsters out on loan found the back of the net, completing a fantastic weekend for Manchester United.

Tom Cleverley scored his first ever premier league goal, while Danny Welbeck made it 4 goals from 3 matches and James Chester scored a late winner for Carlisle.

Here’s the video of the goals. Full credit goes to the excellent www.SimplyReds.com:
