Definitely just you, I didn't notice him being specially fast. Maybe I didn't look close enough.
He hasn’t been kicked from pillar to post yet. Injuries and pain tend to blunt your speed.

He’s very quick but temperament will play a huge part. Amad looks like he’s been playing there a long time. Very mature

I will take a closer look next time, always exciting to have a fast youngster, thanks bud!
Like Mickson mentioned, he's not really gone full pelt for the first team yet.

He’s flown under the radar a bit with Hannibal but he has some real qualities cutting in on that right foot...

Oh yes!

I keep thinking of him as a Southampton level starter but he keeps smashing any challenge that’s put in front of him. Stepping up doesn’t seem to phase him at all.

How much did he cost? Was he always very highly rated?

Am I correct in saying he's missed a bit of his development with injuries throughout the recent years? I know he had a bad collarbone injury this season for around 2-3 months in 2021, but previously also (2019-2020)?

Possibly part of why he's flown under the radar a bit. Wonder if he'll be going on loan next season.

I think he maybe "flew under the radar" for some people because he plays left wing and a lot of his strengths Martial and Rashford have covered

Unfortunately I don't think he'll get any time to play next season.

Pretty much sure United would want to loan him for him to play.

Looks a real talent and I don't say that often about our supposed academy gems

Seems likely, especially if the Sancho signing goes through. Just too many players on the positions Elanga could see play at.

a loan to the championship or even Germany would be ideal. He's more talented than Chong and he did alright at times.

i'd like to see him get first team football then come back to replace Mata/Lingard/James.

For me he was running close for U-23's player of the season.

He was on course up untill the shoulder injury.

Maybe he could take James squad position, but a loan prob best

Send him on loan to Derby along with Teden Mengi.
Surely, they will start in this average Derby team. Plus Rooney factor...

Reminds me of when Demiti Mitchell went on the weights during off season!

IMO he'd be wasted spending another whole season at under 23 youth level.

If Ole cant squeeze him onto the first team bench he should loan him out to get valuable first team football..
