Ferguson, "I am very pleased with Rossi. He is a young lad who came from Italy and he has settled in and performed at a high level, especially when he has been introduced into the first team.
"He handled being brought into the Carling Cup games and I am delighted that he has received the award. Rossi can look forward to a terrific career.”
Speaking about Blake, Fergie said, "He is a great testament to youth development at Manchester United. He was a young boy with raw talent when he first arrived and he has become a great forward. He was unlucky when he got a bad break mid-season but he'll be back next year. He can take encouragement from this award, he truly deserves it."
