Manchester United boss
Sir Alex Ferguson has assured
his youngsters they will keep their Carling Cup places for next
week's semi against Manchester
City.
Most Red Devils fans would gladly accept losing to either
Blackburn or Aston Villa at
Wembley on February 28 if it meant City being denied a big day
out.
But Ferguson refuses to be deflected from his original aim, so
the likes of Darron Gibson and Danny Welbeck can expect to start at
Eastlands.
"I will stick with the principle of picking young players on
Wednesday," said the United chief.
"That is what we have done in the Carling Cup and we are not
changing that."
