United face Sevilla here tomorrow in the Champions League last-16 first leg and he believes his side can upset the odds and claim a fourth crown.
They have not come close to winning the biggest prize in club football since losing to Barcelona in the final in 2011. But Jose Mourinho stunned Europe when he led unfancied Inter Milan to glory in 2010.
Now Young feels he can do the same with United. He said: “Of course we can win it. You don’t enter a competition not to win it. That’s what we’ll be looking to do.”
