Those moves in the penalty area shows why Barca are so interested in him.
Did more than Maya in 10 minutes than in 80.
It’s a friendly & you can’t judge people fully on cameo’s but what I will say is his potential is worth so much more to us than Mata’s final years.
He could be very special & this year expectations are low; whilst we have spaces in our attack - Gomes & Greenwood should be playing a lot this year.

We renewed wheelchair Mata for 2+1 when Gomes is straight up better than him. Hopefully it doesn't cost us.
Wonderful technique.
If we don’t keep Gomes then whoever signs him will have a fantastic player.
I’m bricking it until he signs a new deal
I hope we don't feck it up with this lad. He's magic.
See you next year, lad.
Mata keeps his place
Mata keeps his place
Juve are going to get him aren't they 
This.
He is ready
Instead of searching for new Ronaldo, we got our own new Messi
That first touch of his from that Fred pass....
How much did he play?
The lad is absolute quality. Needs to play instead of Mata.
He will be gone by next summer but at least mr nice guy will have 1 year left on his contract.
10mins.
What are we waiting with his contract? PSG, Barca and Juve are just waiting for this kind of situations.
He’s a serious talent, man. Really hoping it’ll be showcased at this club and not elsewhere.
Why so sure?
Everything he does is a joy to watch, even the pen.
Give him a bumper contract and just play the lad. I want to see him feature a lot this season. And not just because I'm tired of the players ahead of him - he just looks special.
Only one year left on his contract. I fear he’s not going to see that many minutes this year.
It that will be the case it’s only natural he’ll be looking to leave.
Enough.
We need to sign this guy up ASAP, has that natural ability on the ball, constant threat.
Only 11 months left on his contract and by the looks of things Mata is above him in the pecking order so he won't get many minutes here.
Ole really doesn't rate him huh ? Gomes's a professional but you can see the frustration of someone who's unappreciated.
I bet those freebie bastards are sniffing around for sure.Juve are going to get him aren't they
If he commits his future to the club he'll get minutes. If he doesn't he probably won't, which is understandable I guess.
Anyway, good pre season, but it's only friendlies... Looked out of his depth in his cameos last year but hopefully he's kicked on from there. He's certainly ahead of Chong in his development anyway
Great cameo from him again. Hope he gets his chance and signs a new contract
Play him. Good enough
Great pen as well.
Think he'll do well at Barcelona.
Was quite impressed by the close control. It was certainly impactful.
I agree, him, greenwood and tuanzabe look like they can really play a part. Chong for me isnt ready. Hopefully we clear out a few deadwood seniors to make sure they play
Sad really has there have been enough opportunities to give him more minutes....
That was a brilliant cameo.
Europa league should be fun if he, greenwood and James get minutes.

Relax, he'll stay. He came on at the same time that Greenwood did today. Same as what Chong had in the last game, which indicates that while Greenwood is deservedly the apple of everyone's eye, Gomes and Chong are considered to be his peers by the management.
He'll have his opportunities in the Europa League and I'm sure he'll force his way in to the reckoning by Christmas if he carries on this form.
Atm he's guaranteed a regular spot on the bench at the very least simply because we haven't bought any midfielders in and his versatility of playing any attacking role (beside striker) and any midfield role, means he'll likely get much more minutes than otherwise.
Also, look at his social media activity. Does that look like the activity of a boy who's unhappy? He genuinely loves the club.
His slight frame also means that he needs to be patient - not to the extent that Lingard or even Scholes were, but definitely enough to be content with regular substitute appearances and occasional starts before he's fully filled out.

He's not been looking happy recently.
