Great goal! Not only the strike, but his whole movement was fantastic! And good decision not to pass to Wout.
ThisThere's a marked difference when you can call on a player like Garnacho from the bench. We've been one paced for ages, he gives us something different.
He's usually a bit crap when he starts, I'd keep him as super sub against the tired defences.Front 3 next game has to be Garnacho Rashford and Antony if they all fit.
Oh, snap.He's usually a bit crap when he starts, I'd keep him as super sub against the tired defences.
Probably not.I’m so pleased for this kid and United. He’s going the cement that left side for himself next season.
I’ve seen others compare players with januzai before plenty of times.I think, "people" is a bit too much as I haven't seen anybody except me using the name. And for the record, with Januzaj, people as well thought he'd be the real deal. Only for PL defenders to prepare for him and him not capable of raising his level above. Not a dig at Januzaj. But young players are curious things - I am happy, we have Garnacho, lets try to be as reasonable as possible. Will get more than enough attention by United fans, giving him a famous number will bring him attention of rival fans just as well. And iirc he already showed that public pressure gets to him - let him grow and mature. If nr.7 shirt stays in reserve for a little longer, so be it.
Not sure that's allowed.I’m so pleased for this kid and United. He’s going the cement that left side for himself next season.
It's Bournemouth and we really need to just play our best players at this pointHe's usually a bit crap when he starts, I'd keep him as super sub against the tired defences.
Nope. Dont ruin his trajectory to fulfill club's tradition that hasn't worked since 2009 anyway, if anything its a tradition synonymous with failure in the last decade. Currently theres nothing special about #7, it only adds pressure to the player. Owen, Valencia (RB), Di Maria, Sanchez, Depay, old Cavani, old Ronaldo. Pathetic list.The boy is quality and he reminds me a little of Ole in his finishing.
#7 for next season.
I'd still start with Rashford on the left, Garnacho is a great impact off the bench for nowHas to be our left winger form now on
Better*Played and took his goal well when he came on, offers us something different to Sancho or Antony
He makes overpaying for an aging Kane seem downright reasonable. Rashford-Kane-Antony for the next 2-3 years with Garnacho as the primary attacking sub, then Rashford moves central and Garnacho is first choice on the left.There is definitely an argument to be had that he's better as a super-sub for now. He'll be our first choice LW in a couple of years though.
The exuberance of youth was what propelled Januzaj, he had no fear, and most people just remember that incredible goal he scored.Not sure why people bring Januzaj up when comparing with Garnacho, he was very under whelming for me and never lived up to the hype from day 1. Garnacho looks the real deal.
I'd give him #11 until he's starting each week, then give him #7.The boy is quality and he reminds me a little of Ole in his finishing.
#7 for next season.
MG still under contract for one more year i guess? or two?I'd give him #11 until he's starting each week, then give him #7.
#11 is spoken for at this moment in time.I'd give him #11 until he's starting each week, then give him #7.
I don’t even remember the goal, haha, but that probably says more about me !The exuberance of youth was what propelled Januzaj, he had no fear, and most people just remember that incredible goal he scored.
Agreed, let him loose on tiring defences and he causes havoc, let him carry on doing that for a bit.Hope we resist the temptation to start him and let him finish off the season with these decisive 20 minute bursts.

#7 is more like it.
Can't see him being at the club still next season.#11 is spoken for at this moment in time.
#7 is too soon and too much bad history, leave that pressure for someone else when Sancho leaves. I think he's perfect for #11. Even if by some miracle MG stays, he can take another jersey.We’re not going to give him the 7 shirt, we use that number as a negotiation tactic when we’re signing new players so they can build their ‘brand’ around being United number 7.
We’re more likely to sign a big name on daft money and give them the shirt. Just continue the tradition of giving it to people who don’t deserve it for marketing purposes.
