Yeah, i dont like that he plays on the left. But oh well, 1-1, vamos Granada
Andreas Pereira | Granada Loan Watch

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
He had a nice glanced header too, that his team mate should've capitalised on. Respectable performance, but Granada do look a bit shit.
The kid can strike a ball no doubt but you feel like he could do a higher level of difficulty.
This Granada team looks like a team owned by a man unwilling to spend money, instead he gets a copy of Football Manager and calls in favours for other club's top young prospect. The manager sets the team out like Barcelona only that they're like a malnourished Barcelona! Our full strength U23 from last season would give this guys a game, probably beat them!
Pereira has looked disciplined positionally out wide but I feel Granada could have done with some of directness from the #10 position.

I quite like the fact he's a level above. It'll show Wetherby or not he's got what it takes to drag a team back into a game despite being inferior in most aspects. Hope he shines whilst he's there
Good performance today. Still needs to work on his decision making. There were moments when he went for the extra dribble when it would have just been wiser to cross or pass.
Was basically running the entire left wing on his own. Good stamina.

I wanted to watch the game.....but to read that he has played the whole game and he was their best player is a great start for him.

Good to hear.
Very happy to hear that.
Decent performance, good defensive work also.

Yep, he's defensive contribution was impressive, chasing down wingers and fullbacks and lose balls.
Quite selfish in some of the plays but in a good way. Showed a lot of confidence in his own ability and didn't shy away from taking responsbility.
Why not,
I went to the U20 WC games and he played on the left for Brazil a lot.
I would like to see him more centrally.
Came more and more during the game, when he realized, that his teammates can't do shit, and wasting all his good assists. Ponce was hilarious.
He should've really gone to a way better club. I guess after this Januzaj at Dortmund story we didn't take any risk of him not getting full playing time what so ever
He often looks for his own shot in an attacking position rather than creating for others. That's one reason why I prefer him playing deeper.
Higher level of difficulty could mean playing with even poorer team in a strong league. I think for a technical midfielder La Liga is the best in terms of learning the trade.
That looks like a Moyes team. Every time he got the ball there was no movement around him, his only option was a cross - and his crossing was uniformly poor.
To me, if he, as an individual can perform amongst the poorer players, then he has the right to play for United with better players.
I didn't watch the game but at least from the highlights here, he should trust his teammates more rather than trying to do everything himself. More or less similar to Adnan, both are talented but somehow lack abit of that teamwork-ness. Rather hogging the ball one or two seconds too long before passing or crossing. Mind, he should have an assist to his name if not for that absolute sitter miss!
as long as he keeps playing 90 Mins
I kinda don't care what role he is used in. As for his team work issues. Stems from always being the super star at junior level. Game experience will wean it from him

I can assure you that he worked very hard for the team. The instances where he seemed to hog the ball was when he was trying to take initiative. You should have seen how wasteful and rubbish his teammates were.
I've watched some 25 minutes of the game in the second half and Andreas was definitely the most positive player in that Granada team.
They will probably get relegated this year though.

Just watched his highlights video and he looks like he's settling in now. A few nice pieces of skill, some good defensive work, some nice passes and could have had an assist. I'm glad he's playing under Paco Jémez as I really liked him as a coach during his spell at Rayo Vallecano. He's a very attack minded coach who isn't afraid of using young players if they're good enough so hopefully Andreas thrives under him.
I watched the game last night, Granada are a poor team but Pereira did stand out for them, like a lot of young players his decision making was a mixed bag but he did create some good openings and was always wanting the ball and taking on the responsibility of being his sides main attacking outlet.
I didn't know Pereira was playing for Granada, now I'll have to see some games.
Well, at least with Jemez he will have the chance to do as he pleases offensively and probably have fun while learning to compete at top level, I just hope Jemez lasts as his coach

Same here . But not as a number 10 though . More of a third CM or as a Box to box one
Starts tonight vs Betis (a).
Charly Musonda only on the bench for Betis.
Looking forward to watch Boga & Pereira later on tonight.
A player that can do that on a regular basis should be a starter. Hopefully, he's recalled in January if his situation doesn't improve.
Hasn't started a single game this season under Poyet unlike the previous coach (Juan Merino)

You're easily impressed.
Jesus Christ, is there a Chelsea player I can praise in peace?
That was just a small clip from the last game against Valencia, Musonda regularly pulls off even more outrageous tricks & dribbles.
Saw the game. Shit defending from Montoya. Musonda is a fantastic talent, best young(u20) Belgium talent. Kid has a bright future if he stays clear of injuries and continues to develop.
Should've started every game on the wing for us...Jesus Christ, is there a Chelsea player I can praise in peace?

I worked with a dude who was convinced he'd replace Beckham on the right wing for us.
Was he a Chelsea supporter who was a big fan of his marshland vegetables?
Looks like he is playing in midfield.
There's no surprise he can only cross to the box in those highlights, Paco Jemez's Rayo was basically Bebe sprinting and crossing at every play.
Just tuned in. How he has been till now?
I was a big fan of Paco's Rayo! Though, admittedly, he did become a little over reliant on Bebé towards the end of his stint there.
Anyone that watched the game that can let us know how he did?
