Memphis is really short on confidence isn't he.. Hope we don't give up on him like we did Zaha

Adnan's game is over. Varela looks like he might be injured too.

This is a mismatch so Norwich are resorting to kicking tactics.

Keane deserves a look in at the first team level. Should be playing the FA cup match and in the europa league.

Memphis looked to have screwed it up but recovers brilliantly and sets up Keane for a tap in

Wouldn't be against Will Keane getting a Europa game or the game against Shrewsbury, not only is he scoring but his all round play has been superb since he came back.

Agreed mate. I do feel Zaha was quite fortunate to find himself at United but the club were ruthless with him, especially when you consider the time and money Anderson got.
Memphis has shown little glimpses of a very good player early on this season.

I think that Zaha must have shown a very poor attitude behind the scenes for that kind of treatment.

I agree, Memphis is clearly short on confidence, and needs the club's backing right now. Right now it seems like he's in everyone's crosshairs

I think it was a mix of not giving a 100%, and the lack of support from Moyes and then Van Gaal, who initially decided he didn't want use wingers. It was a downward spiral for him since his arrival here. Just doesn't help build confidence in a young player

His Harry Kane evolution is well and truly on. Stage is set to smash up the Europa league

That was great from Memphis.
Reminded me of Obertan when he played for the reserves.. He had all the tricks
Not a hugely promising comparison :lol:

He's clumsy with the ball at his feet, given that he's not shown his intelligence or his workrate at the club yet it's quite worrying for him

Really really like Will Keane, he has something of Kane about him. Not incredibly fast or skill full, but has the right instincts, sublime finisher, great in the box, and just a very clever player. Hope he gets a good loan.
He doesn't need a loan, it is quite striking how similar his game and development is to Kane, even Kane never had a great loan period he benefitted from playing with the first team, Keane would be the same I feel.

I think he should consider himself luck too. That kind of play is exactly why he's on the bench in the first team.

Between him and Wilson; who's the better prospect?

I think Keane is more ready right now.
He looked like a sure thing before his injury.. what was that? 3 year ago?
He has done well to come back from that.. Hope the "he is x years old and still playing for the reserves" argument doesnt start.
He looks a lot bigger too. Not just taller, looks stronger too.
