Shea Lacey: Man United Champions League hero in huge international tug of war
Story updated
The story in brief
5-second readShea Lacey impresses for Manchester United, sparking an international tug-of-war between England and Republic of Ireland for his future.

From the source
Manchester United teenager Shea Lacey has caused quite a stir this week. The 19-year-old has always been highly rated in the Manchester United academy, but made his first team appearance last season.
He also made the perfect impression by crashing a thunderous effort against the crossbar against Burnley at the turn of the year. He was then sent off in the final stages of the FA Cup defeat under Darren Fletcher in January versus Brighton & Hove Albion.
Lacey had happier personal memories, though, in September, when he scored his first senior goal for the club against the same opponents. The young Liverpudlian delighted Old Trafford with a courageous performance in the Champions League against AS Roma.
