Played well yesterday but was below his usual standard I believe.

1:38, 2:07, 5:47, 9:18... so alike to Scholes, if he gains some muscles he will be fantastic deep laying playmaker, his technique on the ball is already one of the best in all teams, and this half volley pass at 10:58 with his left foot is just ridiculous for such young player and you guys tell me it wasn't even his best game played for three years older age group..
Hope he keep his head down and work hard without injuries, he's the best talent since Ravel Morrison

Clips above are all well and good but how's he been getting on this season? @khoazany
Been in and out the U18s squad this season (which is still a good thing considering he's U16).He seems to be really outstanding whenever he played with his true age group so really can benefit from playing more with the U18s.The problem is Gribbin who's playing in the number 10 position and Kehinde who's playing in the number 8 position are two of the best talents in the squad and older than Gomes so unless one of them are out injured Gomes would have to played wide if we want to play him and it's not really his position although he can do a job there (and obviously we also have other older players who play wide).Gribbin seem hasn't raised his game enough this season to break into the U21s otherwise it would be a win-win situation to just promote Gribbin up and let Gomes to fill his space.
The tricky part is most of the U18s games he started this season has been away games which weren't televised so perhaps you have to ask opinions from those fans that traveled to see these games.

Looking at the u18 fixture list it would look like it was the u16s.
It was the u16s. A few of our u16s who aren't being kept on were playing on trial for other teams today
cheers guys 
U16s.Look like with a few trialists among them.
Not selected for tonight maybe?
For an U21 match?
If it is because of that then I'm sure he'll get a telling off from the club. Didn't a prem player get fined for whinging on Twitter (forgot who)?
Footballers have lives outside football
Pretty sure it has nothing to do with him not being selected today.
He might have ran out of coffee? had a bad haircut? That tweet could mean literally anything.
I love that you invest time wondering whats going on in a 16 year olds life
I very much doubt it's about not being selected for the U21s.
Probably something to do outside football.
Probably something to do outside football.
It was a question. Has he not played for the U21 or been on the bench before?
I don't think so, I believ the highest level he has represented thus far is the U18s. He's only 16 after all.
He's too young to expect to play for the u-21's already.. He's not even a regular for the U-18's yet
Gomes won a mini tournament with England U16s today beating Norway, Czech Republic and Italy to do so. Gomes played an important role too it seems.
Angel Gomes scored yet another outstanding goal, this time for England U16s against Brazil U16s on Friday:
Manchester United star Angel Gomes scores amazing goal for England vs Brazil
Manchester United star Angel Gomes scores amazing goal for England vs Brazil
Wow thats a great goal..
Great goal, the Brazilians were surely thinking why isnt he playing for us with a name like that
Fantastic.
What a strike
Might benefit him alot to struggle a bit more in the U18s. Keeps him on his toes. Must be the biggest Manchester-talent since Ravel?!
Pity about Gribbin. I get the impression he is overrating his own talent quite a bit.
They did a clip about him on Full Time Devils and said someone told them he was the best talent to ever come through United, is he that good?
Not the first time I've heard that. A friend who watches their games is confident he will be in the first team before he's 18.
isnt he on the forum? I think i have read his name on here a few times
Really? that's quality if so. I'd probably lose the plot on here during a meltdown if I was playing for United
I dont mean the playerReally? that's quality if so. I'd probably lose the plot on here during a meltdown if I was playing for United
, but the talent expert that gave the interview on YoutubeYeah he is mrmujac I think. Wrote a book on United's youth system I believe.I dont mean the player
Best talent to ever come through? That's scary good. But also just scary, because it sets expectations way too high. Kids develop at such different rates.
Needs some perspective, he's not 16 yet and still acclimatising to u18 football. Can't help but think the comments of Blackmore et al aren't really helpful for his development at this stage. A lot of hard work to go and difficult to know how he'll physically mature too.
feck me, just imagine opening redcafe and seeing "is Trizy the next Bellion."Really? that's quality if so. I'd probably lose the plot on here during a meltdown if I was playing for United
