Good article, hopefully we see a lot more of him next season.
He started the first game but had a poor game so it was no surprise he was on the bench for the second game.Why doesn't he start? Do they have better players?
Scholes-esqueStarting for Brazil right now, number 18 I think.
Haven't watched the Hungary match yet, got it recorded and will watch when I get home tonight. I love how he takes corners with his left foot though, our own little Santi
Highlights from the game his assist for the third goal is at 1:33.
The North Koreans are the Africans of Asia. They look like they are in their late 20s or 30s.
Pereira targeting United first team
Andreas Pereira is targeting becoming a regular first-team player at Manchester United after signing a new contract last month.
The talented midfielder is representing Brazil at the Under-20 World Cup in New Zealand and they are currently preparing to face Uruguay in the last 16 (Thursday 08:30 BST).
While Pereira's sights are first set on steering Brazil to success on the other side of the world, he's keen to make more appearances in the Barclays Premier League following his debut against Tottenham in March. And the 19-year-old stated his ambitions in an exclusive interview with this month's Inside United, the official club magazine.
"It's about breaking into the first-team squad," he said. "After that, I have to work hard to get into the first team and, following that, we will see. I was focused on the football anyway [rather than my future] and everything that comes with it but, when I signed, I was very pleased to finalise the contract. I can continue my form like this and do well here in the coming years.
"It means a lot [to me]. I’m very proud to be a Manchester United player. I always dreamed about it. Now I am happy I can live my dream."
Pereira admits he was a little taken aback when coming on as a substitute against Spurs at Old Trafford to make his league bow after making his debut as a substitute in the Capital One Cup at MK Dons in August.
"It was like a dream come true," he confessed. "I was very happy with the moment against Tottenham when I could come on and we won the game as well – that was important. To be fair, when I came on the pitch it looked like I was dreaming. I felt like I was playing a video game then, afterwards, I got used to it. I wanted to help the team. I didn’t think about getting tired as I was just running as hard as I can."
Depends how preseason goes, but unlikely in my opinion.Think LVG will surprise us all and see him as a first team member come August?

With him signing the contract (I think the delay was about first team team opportunities)I think he must know that he'll get some game time next season.I'm of the same view but given how highly LVG seems to rate the boy...
nobody knows how many players we sign who would compete directly with Pereira for gametime. Buying someone like Schneiderlin would make absolute sense as he would compete mostly with Carrick and Blind for no6 and occasionally as no8 and Andreas could get gametime as no8 backup to Herrera, no10 and here and there he could offer cover for Mata as false right winger even Pereira plays rather from the left.We all want big money signings, we all want the midfield strengthened so as we can compete for the League & in Europe. In order to do this, our better young players are not going to get much of a sniff.
