Man United's FA Youth Cup win proves the academy is gaining strength - Garnacho, Hansen-Aaroen and Mainoo impressed... at least Erik ten Hag has a promising new generation to develop

Once Erik ten Hag has recovered from Ajax's title celebrations, no doubt he will watch the tape of Manchester United's Youth Cup final win.

Someone as meticulous as the incoming manager will be eager to see the next generation at Old Trafford and how they're coming along.

Ten Hag has a very good track record of bringing on talented young footballers and it just so happens that his arrival in Manchester coincides with a promising United crop.

This was their the club's 11th Youth Cup triumph overall but their first in 11 years.
