Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard and Ravel Morrison have all become household names and a photo of them holding the FA Youth Cup during their time at Manchester United is incredibly popular - but what happened to the fourth man in that picture?

United won their 10th FA Youth Cup in 2011 after defeating Sheffield United 6-3 on aggregate at Bramall Lane and Old Trafford.

Pogba and Lingard eventually ended up playing together in the first team, winning the Carabao Cup and Europa League in 2017.

Morrison was tipped to have the best career of the trio and managed to bag a brace in the 4-1 second-leg victory.

Sadly, his demons off the pitch managed to get in the way of him having a career in the Red Devils first team.

In the dressing room at full-time, Pogba, Lingard and Morrison all posed with the trophy in a now-iconic photo.

Included in that picture is another United starlet who ended up having a brief run in the first team.

The man in question is Ryan Tunnicliffe, sitting without a shirt on to the right of Lingard.

A hard-hitting midfielder, Tunnicliffe was handed his debut by Sir Alex Ferguson in a 2-1 win over Newcastle United in the League Cup in 2012.

Tunnicliffe replaced Marnick Vermijl and managed to win a bet his father placed nine years prior.

When the youngster was nine, his father Mick put a £100 bet on him one day making an appearance for the first team. The odds were 100-1, pocketing Mick a cool £10,000.

After playing one more time, Tunnicliffe was sold to Fulham in 2014.

It was the last time he'd experience Premier League football as Fulham were relegated at the end of that season.

He ended up enjoying spells with Wigan Athletic, Blackburn Rovers, Millwall, Luton Town and Portsmouth before leaving England altogether last year.

Tunnicliffe now plies his trade in Australia with A-League outfit Adelaide United.
