[Rowem]

Looked very threatening and comfortable upfront - delighted he scored after missing his first chance.

Looks stronger and quicker too. Could be a brilliant forward and could get plenty of opportunities in the 4411 as either the 9 or 10

He's a really talented player, he didn't have the best season last year but I've no doubt he's going to make it. He needs to keep getting minutes, he already offers a lot.

 

[Classical Mechanic]

He has totally bulked up. It has added a lot his arsenal.

 

[ThanksBoss26]

He's bulked up hasn't he.

 

[Escobar]

Hopefully get's some game time upfront or as a 10 this season

 

[shamans]

Too talented to not make it here.

Definitely. I don't want to get over excited from a preseason friendly, but friendly aside, we shouldn't sign any more attacking players and keep him in the team. He can play as a striker or behind the striker. Anything central because that is where he belongs.

None of the winger BS.

 

[NotQuiteManc]

Looks good playing up top. Who would have thought? Hopefully this will bring his confidence back. Januzaj the surprise striker?

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

Best game of the preseason so far. Very involved and excellent movement upfront.

 

[Maroon Lucifer]

There has something dramatic happened with Adnans physique. Strong and lightning fast.
We should stick with him this season. I have a feeling.

It looks like LVG was looking for the right position for Januzaj in this tour and i think he found it. Goal, nice attempt which was not as easy as it looked and some good runs. Only mistake he made was a pass to Perreira which was just a bit to far for Perreira.

 

[Rozay]

Was very good. Him, Andrea and Jesse take our attack to the sort of technical level it should be at. Hope he has a great season.

He and Shaw took a club trainer on holiday. Both determined to make a success of this season

 

[Mali_Zeus]

Great by him and he looked very good up front.

Suggestion? I am almost certain LVG said it himself last season

I like that attitude!

 

[El Zoido]

He mentioned taking a personal trainer on holiday to get himself in shape. Great attitude to have to be honest.

 

[ThanksBoss26]

I like that attitude!

Me too. You'd imagine van Gaal would be impressed by that.

 

[bosnian_red]

Was great today, should definitely be an option up front. Looks so much better as a striker or #10 then as a winger, he's too indecisive out there. That goal will do wonders for his confidence as well, delighted for him

 

[gooDevil]

Great to see him score, pretty good cameo, coulda easily had two, but settled down after early miss.

 

[ottosec]

Really pleased for him, hopefully he can get some confidence from this goal! Looks strong as feck, that summer training really worked for him.

 

[Mali_Zeus]

Suggestion? I am almost certain LVG said it himself last season

He did? In any case signs are very good.

 

[datura]

Actually loooked like a striker, good movement and hold up play. Only looked poor when boxed in wide.

 

[NinjaFletch]

Suggestion? I am almost certain LVG said it himself last season

Yeah he did, I'm sure of it.

Also played up front too, not sure why people are acting like its a surprise.

 

[Brwned]

Definitely. I don't want to get over excited from a preseason friendly, but friendly aside, we shouldn't sign any more attacking players and keep him in the team. He can play as a striker or behind the striker. Anything central because that is where he belongs.

Yep. I'd be delighted to see van Gaal ignore Cavani and co. and give Januzaj a real chance. He played far too little last year.

 

[Superpolfcb]

Great 30 mins, will really help his confidence.

Also way more energetic than usual, as it should be!

 

[van Persie]

Glad he scored and it will do wonders for his confidence. Think he'll have a good season and can definitely see him have a future as a striker and would love for him to succeed in that position (or any other). He's got all the right qualities.

A journalist asking an obvious question?

Surely not?

 

[darioterios]

@Santiago_KinderBueno must be laughing to the bank right now

 

[datura]

I'm sure I heard someone at United saying he reminded them a bit of RvP as a youngster, and he started off playing wide early in his career before moving centrally.

 

[Sammyjunn]

He was good but could have done even better with the the possible tap in for Pereira and his first chance, but looked lively and involved and it will be a huge confidence boost.

 

[LARulz]

He did? In any case signs are very good.

It was suggested in the article and has Moyes quotes too.

[mufcwarm92]

Surprise striker scores.

 

[Raw]

Really happy he scored. That one he missed earlier wouldn't have been good for his confidence.

 

[m1y2]

his hold up play looked as goodd as he played for u21, just let him train finishing and work on his composure and he will be a decent option out there, looked like he is more valued than Wilson now with him JAmes being played out of position to make room for Januzaj up front..

Thanks! Didnt know that.

 

[Eric'sCollar]

Very happy to see him score, friendly or not, he needed that. Don't want a loan for him, I think he can help us this season.

 

[datura]

Thanks! Didnt know that.

We played him as a striker quite a bit before his breakout season under Moyes to toughen up and he did well there so it's not strictly a new position, but it is at the top level.

 

[LARulz]

Thanks! Didnt know that.

I remember thinking the idea of Januzaj up top was ridiculous but after he's bulked himself up and the way he performed today makes me think he does have a future there
