United have confirmed the arrival of 16-year-old Italian defender Michele Fornasier. He’ll join the Reds’ Under-18s squad with the rest of the first-year Academy scholars.

FIFA rejected Fiorentina’s complaint last week so I guess this was just a matter of time. Anybody actually seen him play?

@United Rant: Yes, it was a matter of time. Never seen him play though. He’s a 16 year old, so there wouldn’t be much compilation videos of him anyway. We just seem to be stocking up on a lot of defenders lately.

Cant post on other thread, too many comments. Just like to say, WOW, i’m actually enjoying watching Ireland play! 1-1 40 mins gone. John O Shea is having a blinder, as a right back too! Imagine that!? World Class! Come on you boys in Green!

Ireland 2 Italy 2 We’re through to the play offs at least! Fantastic display from John O Shea MOTM! We were unlucky not to beat them. Shit, so close! Seriously lacking in centre midfield, need Andy Reid back.
