Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck believes the club has its own versions of Barcelona maestros Xavi and Iniesta.
The England international reckons youngsters Jess Lingard and Larnelle Cole remind him of the legendary Barcelona duo.
Speaking to The Guardian, Welbeck said: “Sometimes I train against Larnelle and Jesse and I think I’m playing against a little Iniesta and Xavi.
Speaking to 'Red View', the Manchester United club magazine, Lingard said: "I've been involved with the first team and I am playing well for the Reserves so we'll see where it goes from there," Lingard told MUTV.
"The aim is for more and hopefully I can play in the Europa League.
"It was good experience [at Newcastle], being around the players. Obviously, if you're going to be a Manchester United player, you have got to get used to that sort of stuff and I enjoyed it.
“It's always a good vibe. You talk about tactics before the match, and the coaches make sure you get enough rest for the big game.
"I've been getting a lot of advice actually. Chicharito told me about movement, Wayne Rooney spoke about finishing and Dimitar Berbatov talked about composure. It's good to get a lot of tips from them."
