Young at heart! It's child's play for the United winger ahead of Manchester derby

With Old Trafford set to give Manchester City an icy cold reception for this weekend's eagerly-anticipated derby, it appears as though winger Ashley Young has taken time out of his schedule to acclimatise to the conditions.

The Manchester United winger was spotted at the O2 Arena in London on Thursday night to watch the highly-acclaimed Disney on Ice.

Young went to the production with his partner Nicky Pike and their two young children.

The former Watford and Aston Villa star, who trained at United's Carrington HQ on Friday, will be playing in his first Premier League showdown with fierce rivals City when the champions host the table-toppers at Old Trafford on Sunday.
