Yeah, probably best to ignore the shite he comes off with.

Is Garth Crooks stupid?
Moyes has handled Adnan perfectly, and he's clearly not only playing him due to injuries.

Out early from all international competition, longer rest. It's a win situation for Manchester United if he plays for Kosovo.I couldn't even point out Kosovo on the map. International games will be grueling for the lad.
God no, that's the last thing he needs.
I like the idea of him playing for Kosovo. It makes him unscapegoatable.
I don't really agree with this thinking. We don't miss them unless they get injured. For example, I want Rafa to get a crack in the Brazil squad. The guy deserves it. Ditto De Gea.For selfish reasons I hope he chooses Kosovo ..... more playing time for United.
He's a frightening talent as an opposition fan, but i've known it since his reserve days that he would be a player.
No need to be so patronising Plugsy. He probably only watched our u18s/U21s when they played Liverpool, rather than following them like a United fan would, and Januzaj had some really good games against Liverpool (despite them trying to hack him down at every opportunity). He ran the show and was the best player on the pitch in most games. He was a class above in the U21s and it wasn't hard to see that he was a very special talent. A lot of those who watched him last season both in the U18 and U21s were desperate for Fergie to give him games in the dead rubbers at the end of last season, it was quite obvious he had 'it'. The harder thing to predict w as the impact he would make on the first team, which has been brilliant. Almost immediately one of our best players.Well done you. But to be honest most people who I know who claim to follow the reserves have mainly been banging on about Will Keane. Now, he may turn out to be a fantastic player also but in comparison I heard very little about Januzaj. Maybe I'm listening to the wrong people or maybe the whole thing of claiming to follow the reserves boils down to little more than repeating a name ''for the future" they've heard from the mouths of others.
As I say, if you spotted his talent early well done. But, and I could be wrong, I don't think he was anywhere near the most spoken of player out of his peers at that level by those who like to claim interest in the reserve team.
I wonder whether playing for Kosovo will be his choice, or his dad's.
I just hope he does not align himself to a country destined to never play internationally at the top level.
I'm sure if you asked Giggs or Best, they would have loved to have starred at a world cup given the chance.
This is the same thread, it just got moved!I wasn't being directly patronising, or intending to be. But everyone's running around claiming to have known he would be start from the get-go but looking at the reserve forum I don't even believe he had his own thread there. All I'm saying is that if everyone who follows the reserves thought he would be a star player it's odd how interest only really started after August.
We can all wait until someone breaks through and claim we knew they would. But anecdotally with my friends and in the reserve forum here, Januzaj wasn't really on that 'agenda'. He'd be mentioned along with some others but next to nobody had him pinned as the next break out star. Now suddenly everyone's claiming they did.
12K? feck off...
Bumping three year old posts is a spastic move for spastics.

What is this Granville madness Steve?You're a hard man, Granville.
In your bum, if you're not careful, Spoony!Hahahahahahaha.
In yer face, Cina.
Shop bike'll fix that.I've no idea, mate - I'm not responsible for my stupidity.
What nonsense, he only really got promoted to the u21s last season and the season before that he was hampered with injuries, or the season before that I forget. Either way, he was very much talked about last season and you also seem to forget that Will Keane missed the whole of last season so he wouldn't have been talked about as much as Adnan, I have to assume that your friends missed last year when it came to following reserves.Well done you.
