It might have been a frustrating Saturday in front of goal for Manchester United but for Adam Lawrence's Under-18s it was another day when the youngsters couldn't stop scoring.
After winning a treble last season the U-18s have picked up where they left off with four wins from four in the U18 Premier League so far this term.
After back-to-back 2-0 wins against Manchester City and Liverpool, Lawrence's youngsters have now stuck nine past Newcastle and Middlesbrough in successive weeks.
Since the start of last season they have lost two of their last 28 league fixtures, scoring 91 goals in the process. This season 18-year-old forward Gabriele Binacheri has been filling his boots and he now has eight goals in five games for the U-18s, as well as a strike for Travis Binnion's U-21s in Premier League 2.
