Very true. He didnt quite grasp the very limited opportunities he had with us last season. At the same time whenever I do see him and see his best bits I see more potential talent than any of our youngsters since Morrison and the young Pogba. I think along with Mensah, Tuanszabe and Rashford we really do have some young players that can be big players for us for the first time in a long timeGranada have really struggled this season, is there any Spanish members that have actually watched him consistently to give their opinion?
Video clips of players best bits can be really misleading.

Keeper has to be saving that
And only 5 goals in that league isn't a good return at all, can't see him having a future here
5 goals and 3 assists for a side who have been destined for relegation since the start of the season, having three different managers, with a side that's filled with young loanees just like him, typically playing 5 at the back AND he normally plays on the wing or in central midfield is an absolutely great return.And only 5 goals in that league isn't a good return at all, can't see him having a future here
He played for the team who finished rock bottom of the league. They are pretty awful, and have been managed by Tony Adams for the last couple of months.Keeper has to be saving that

He literally played everywhere across the pitch this season with Granada. RW, LW, number 10, LHMF, RHMF, DMF...Keeper has to be saving that

I don't follow spanish football per se, but I have watched him a couple of times against the big boys. He has really impressed me.Granada have really struggled this season, is there any Spanish members that have actually watched him consistently to give their opinion?

Exactly. I think he scored as many as Kroos and more than Koke, Modric and many other CMs n la Liga.5 goals and 3 assists for a side who have been destined for relegation since the start of the season, having three different managers, with a side that's filled with young loanees just like him, typically playing 5 at the back AND he normally plays on the wing or in central midfield is an absolutely great return.
I'm not entirely sure how you can say so assertively he has no future here. He's had a fantastic season on loan.

From that description he sounds like perfect cover for Pogba and Herrera. All depends on what system we use though.I don't follow spanish football per se, but I have watched him a couple of times against the big boys. He has really impressed me.
Physically, he looks like he's added muscle. He looks bigger and he covers a lot of ground. I've heard he plays LW but whenever I've watched him he played as a CM and he's performed really well. His dribbling in tight spaces and long range passing has impressed me. Defensively, he's good aswell. Very aware of his surroundings, always willing to track back.
I think the loan has helped him a lot. He looks much more mature. Hopefully Jose has a plan for him.
His agility and his close control are his best assets IMO.he has bulked up a lot. may actually be able to withstand some crunching tackles of the premier league now.
Bounced right in front of him, those are always hard to save.Keeper has to be saving that

He's 21, so he's no longer a kid in my opinion.Bounced right in front of him, those are always hard to save.
He's a kid playing in a shit team in midfield, give your head a wobble.
Have you watched him play, or are you basing that on his goal return?Keeper has to be saving that

I'd say he's a number 8.Where is he best suited positionally?
Yeah I consider him quite old to be honest. Soon he'll have white hair and start slowing down.He's 21, so he's no longer a kid in my opinion.
This summer is the telling one for him, he looks and sounds like he has a lot of ability. Jose will have made his mind up on him, I'm edging toward him being a squad player next season, with him kicking on over the next few years.
Fingers crossed we've got a good one here.
I know you likely said that for attention and I'm not saying he'll make it at United but you've just judged him on his numbers in his first season in the top flight for the worst team in the league.Keeper has to be saving that

Don't agree at all that he's more talented than Rashford. Doing well for himself, looks to be picking up the right mentality slowly and surely and he's had a good season on loan. Think calling it a great season is a stretch, but nonetheless he's scored more goals than any of our CMs bar Pogba. Well deserving of an opportunity here, especially as he plays a position we're fairly short in.Very true. He didnt quite grasp the very limited opportunities he had with us last season.

@charlenefan well done, people fell for it
He's technically a lot better, IMO Rashford only beats him in physical attributes. They're both good young players though who play different positions so it's a bit pointless to compare.Don't agree at all that he's more talented than Rashford.

I don't even agree on that. Might be a better passer but then he's a midfielder, he should be a better passer. Crosses, shooting, dribbling I think Rashford has him beaten hands down. First touch and close control is a bit of a toss up, maybe Pereira edges it. Set pieces both are very good...He's technically a lot better, IMO Rashford only beats him in physical attributes.

Nah, crossing and set pieces Andreas beats him quite easily. It isn't even really comparable. Purely talking skillful technique Andreas is easily better but that is only a small part of football.I don't even agree on that.

Physically and mentally Rashford has it though, Pereira is still getting there.
Rashford and Herrera are the 2 best crossers in our squad by a stretch, I'd be very pleasantly surprised if Pereira was significantly better than them after his loan.Nah, crossing and set pieces Andreas beats him quite easily.
