Obertan: Evra Is In For A Tough Game

Richardson: Returning To Old Trafford Big Event For Me

Kieran Richardson joined Manchester United as a teenager and showed great promise down the left wing. He made his England début when he was 20-years-old and scored twice, seeming to be another youth product ready to make his mark at United.
