Manchester United U18s inspired by 'Class of 92' ahead of Youth Cup final

Manchester United’s youngsters will be aiming to emulate the famed 'Class of 92' as they look to create their own piece of history this week.

United’s Under-18s will be aiming to follow in the footsteps of some of the club’s great names of the past by lifting the FA Youth Cup on Wednesday. The Reds’ latest crop take on Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford, with United captain Rhys Bennett knowing he and his team-mates have the chance to write another chapter in the club’s illustrious history.

It’s 30 years since that famous set of youngsters, including such names as Gary Neville, Nicky Butt, David Beckham and Ryan Giggs, emerged onto the scene by lifting the cup against Crystal Palace. All those players went on to become household names, and drove United into an era of dominance under Sir Alex Ferguson.
