Yeah no reason why he couldn't be a Martinelli type player when like someone above has said he develops and grows into his body

Tough crowd in here, one of the only constant dangers in attack, their full back would've had nightmares about him last night.
They were didn't know what to do with him, yes his end product is lacking but the kids 18, if his end product was precise and consistent then he wouldn't be sat on the bench.
I'm confident that if he keeps his feet on the ground and keeps learning, he'll be a star.

What's the situation with his contract?
He has that rare quality of managing to glue the ball to his feet even when kicked about. Great talent and should get more opportunities.
His contract situation is fine. Move on.
Hard not to get excited, he is very fast, great dribbler, gifted technically, destroyed the fullback last night.
We missed a player like him, player who is very direct and always takes on players. He is very quick and skillful, goes both ways.
I hope he gets more chances, looks very good talented player.

Played like a (less skilful) young Ronaldo I thought. Really enjoyed his performance. Gave us a balance we often seem to lack, particularly if Rashford isn't firing.
He is exciting. But there is a long way to go before he can start consistently at Utd.
Able to elaborate? I’ve seen so much chat about his contract I’m no longer sure when it does actually expire.

Quotes his contract until 2025 but then the below (TransferMarkt) quotes it as ending next year so clearly some confusion

Great, thanks!
Veey good full debut. He has a very good chance of making it as a regular Premier league starter either here or elsewhere.
My apologies, I don't read the match threads anymore.
This is a happy reality, thanks
I was really happy to see Garnacho get a go last night. He started slowly but grew into the game. Thought first half he was coming off the wing too early, which led to Malacia getting in his way on the underlap. However, in the second half he varied it up and started taking people on down the outside. At that point the only thing Sheriff could do to stop him was kick him. I was praying that cut back from Bruno would hit the roof of the net off his boot. Would have been a deserved goal on a promising debut.
Refreshing to see one of our wingers not stop, turn and pass backwards or sideways every time they got the ball.
I thought he was brilliant. Best full debut from a youth player since rashford that I can think of.
I know the opposition were shite but they also defended with nearly 10 players and he still managed to look dangerous. He'll play against better players in the prem but he will also get a lot more space as teams don't defend like that at all.
I would happily see him coming off the bench and provided he performs, start getting matches when the fixtures really pile up in the new year.

Very promising debut. Always a joy to see players take their man on and beat them. Huge benefit to the team since Sancho or Antony won’t do that.
Baller!
Very exciting to see, you could see how direct he wanted to be. Although, I assume we wont see him for a few weeks now. Probably the Villa cup game.
I was surprised to see him in the starting 11 but he looked a threat all game.

Those who do tend to have not at 18. Of course he has to work on end product, he's a kid. It's more important for him right now to prove he's got the talent and mentality for the stage and keep improving in all areas. End product will come gradually if he's got that.
He's better than Sancho and should be ahead of him.
Loved that he went outside and inside, keeps the defender constantly second guessing himself. Would be surprised if he doesn’t get another start very soon.
Definitely. Great opportunity now presented to develop him with the first 11. Plays without fear.
I think he’ll have some involvement against West Ham, Erik hasn’t been afraid to reward good performances this season.
Isn't there a rule that U18s can't sign long term contracts?
Who knows? As per the multiple articles though he’s here until 2025
Man of the match yesterday in my opinion.
Really happy to see him play with self confidence and beating his man several times. Really good in tight spaces, his potential is really huge.

It was Sheriff FC he played against, lets not be silly.
No he's not.
Much need competion for Sancho, I think he needs to brought on in the 70th min (for games we are comfortably winning in) and bedded in like the first time we tried to integrate C. Ronaldo.
Id want him to be starting next season all being well, just shearly on how he can lift a team and fans.

I've not been so sure a player will make it as a very good or top player since Pogba was coming through.
Making at Utd is a different question but I've no doubt he will be a decent top division player.

I thought most people were pretty "sure" about Rashford and Greenwood.
Greenwood was about as sure a-thing at 16 as you're ever likely to see in football, Rashford wasn't but he was obviously talented. I don't think there was much between Garnacho and Rashford at U18 level. Like previously mentioned, Greenwood's pretty much the only player I've seen who was lightyears ahead of everyone else.
Too early for statements like this but I think he should be given the opportunity to put this opinion to the test.
Only just turned 18 in July as well
I think you'll find that one good performance is enough to convince some on here of absolutes.
