I don't think so. I started watching in the second half and he's not playing now.

Neymar has done nothing while I've watched.

Here's what one of my Chilean students had to say about him (there are a few mistakes, but you get the idea):

"is one of the best strikers in chile, undoubtedly he will improve in England because it is young, he is fast and scorer, and the people compare with OWEN....is not from my team but for sure will be abut i like him.... i think maybe the next season he couls surprise you, but not this"

Is he actually here? He's not on either the first team or U21's website. All a bit odd.

I'm guessing some of his paper work hasn't gone through yet, hence no official announcement yet.
Given his status (coming from S. America, work permit related) do we have ot have him officially registered before the end of the deadline?

Would hate to think of him getting stuck and unable to play for 6 months!

Not sure why nothing seems to be confirmed. He was at Moss Lane the other night watching the match and he was in the squad photo for this season.

Sky sports news last night said that it had still not been confirmed, getting a bit strange

Wouldn't be too concerned, Gill mentioned him alongside our other summer signings - might just need to get some work-permit for it to be 100% complete.

Work permit doesn't matter we can store him at a feeder. Just means he can't registered.

waiting for everyone else to catch up!!

What's the hold up though? I thought this was all sorted, pending official announcement. Didn't SAF fully intend for him to join up with the squad straight away?

Must have hit a snag somewhere, can't see why they wouldn't announce it, if they could. :confused:

I don't know if this is real or not, but it's supposed to be from the squad pictures:D

So I assume he won't join us for now? I'm rather confused on why we didn't complete the deal. Universidad de Chile's coach was angry at one point because Henriquez was leaving and the club had no chance to replace him - it seemed certain really he would leave them this window.

I guess we'll wait until January, right? :nervous:

Is there new information?

He's not registered for our UEFA CL squad. Very strange.

Someone get on that man's Twitter!

The full squad photo seems to be annually saved for after the closing of the transfer window.

The whole situation is a bit confusing alright. He was at the reserves match against Spurs so I assume he's basically a United player, maybe there's some sort of problem getting his registration through right now.

Yesterday someone asked Daniel Taylor (writer for the Guardian) if it was done, he said it was as far as he knew and that maybe Nick Coppack (manutd.com journalist) would be able to shine some light on the situation. Nick Coppacks response was "All will become clear soon".

There we go! :D
I honestly can't wait to watch him play again - be it with the U21's, or on loan.

Fantastic news, wonder why it was held up, work permit maybe? Anyway I suppose he now has to stay until at least January so will be interesting to see if he gets much first team time or purely remains in the U21s

Ferguson said today that all three of Büttner, Henriquez and Nick Powell could make their debuts vs Newcastle in the COC. (hehe)
