Manchester United - Sir Alex Ferguson happy with Carling Cup debutants
21.09.2011
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson was delighted with the performances of a handful of debutants in the Carling Cup last night.
Ezekiel Fryers limped off in the later stages of the 3-0 win after an impressive display from the start, whilst Paul Pogba's second-half appearance showed the future looks increasingly bright at Old Trafford.
Larnell Cole also enjoyed a late cameo, and Ferguson believes it's important for the younger players to get a taste of competitive action at the earlierst opportunity.
"I thought young Fryers did very well. He showed good composure, wasn't fazed by it which is really good because you always want to see what their temperaments are like because the atmosphere here, as you know, is hostile and he coped with it very well," the Red Devils chief said post-match.
"Paul got a good 45 and young Larnell Cole came on at the end - it's good for them to get taste of the atmosphere and what the first team is like."
