Heard he's having a good game so far, hopefully he can be an important player for us next season.
Yeh he had a lovely assist. Doing well in the 10 positionHeard he's having a good game so far, hopefully he can be an important player for us next season.
Yep, mentioned that before against Inter. He's got a touch of the Rafael's about him, love that. He gave it out to Skriniar in the last game and gave Kane some this time - just as long as he doesn't go over board and get into trouble.Andy has a bit of a nasty streak in him. Good to see. He's always the first in there sticking up for his teammates.
Agreed, if he can carry this form into the actual season he could be a valuable squad player. He's about the only player we have who can take a decent corner which is an added bonus.Great game.
Actually bar the first poor game, he has had a pretty good preseason.
Not a very high bar. I'm going to be blunt, Pereira is not good enough to be a regular for us if we aspire to become a good team. Those who are singing his praises will be shredding him once he starts being bullied in the PL.He's better than Fred and Matic. I'd rather Scott and him play with Pogba.
Not a very high bar, but it seems like too much to ask from managers in the last couple of season, to make the obvious call that is. You can't say he will be bullied, he definitely doesn't look like a player that will get bullied.Not a very high bar.

We absolutely need to buy a new CM, to not replace Herrera and Fellaini would be criminal.
So the sensible thing to do would be to get rid of Matic and Fred, not Pereira given that he is paid significantly less than them and can actually spot a pass without giving it away. Good enough to be a backup for a team in contention for top 4, albeit not as a starter.Not a very high bar.

I don't get to see much of the youth games, interesting to hear he's always had a tendency to get stuck in - like itThe guy used to brutalize the opposition in the youth teams. Always had a bit of fight about him and it's something we need in the squad imo.
He's got a case of the Scholes. Would always launch himself into silly tackles.I don't get to see much of the youth games, interesting to hear he's always had a tendency to get stuck in - like it
He's worse than Herrera in that sense in my view. Herrera was smarter when it came to shithousery. Pereira is dirty.Good to hear he’s took over the shithousery from Herrera. Always need one in your side
Yes, Pereira's free kicks are almost always on target, and I would fancy him to score quite a few during the season, if he plays. Still needs to get a bit of consistency into his game, and perhaps just hold back on the slightly reckless challenges. I've always thought he had an excellent ability to play football, I just hope that he gets the opportunities to show what he can do. Going to be a fascinating season.He would have scored the free kick that Young butchered as well.
He was superb today and led the charge to give a filthy Spurs outfit some of their own medicine.
My team to start the season:
De Gea
AWB Lindelof Tuanzebe Shaw
McTominay Pogba
Rashford Pereira James
Martial
Romero, Dalot, Young, Smalling, Fred, Mata, Greenwood
That's the main difference I see in him. He's always had ability but he seems to have become more mature somehow. It's only pre season, but very encouraging performances so far.Weird player. Has ability, but a lot of the time he doesn’t manage to actually show it. Very good today, and nice to see him and McTominay stand up to those thugs.
Looked pretty much the same in pre season last year if I remember correctly.That's the main difference I see in him. He's always had ability but he seems to have become more mature somehow. It's only pre season, but very encouraging performances so far.
More assertive this year, but as I said it's only pre season so we'll see.Looked pretty much the same in pre season last year if I remember correctly.
Could well be right, I’ve only seen one and a half game so far. Seem to remember it was all the rave after his spell at Girona, how he had toughened up. Have to say I don’t understand his few chances last year, keeping in mind some of the players we used regularly.More assertive this year, but as I said it's only pre season so we'll see.
