Did nothing expect missing that fantastic opportunity to score.

His worst game for us. Expected a lot more from him but nothing came off tonight.
Did look a bit like a deer in headlights but the comments he received in the match day thread were way overblown. He might not make it as a United player but no need for what was said about him tonight.
Yeah not his greatest game for us, Shoretire was by far the worst of the cameos tonight though imo
Bit dissapointing
That's what I love about football, we watched the same game and I thought shoretire did well
Not impressed at all.
Yeah it’s weird how people can see it totally different.That's what I love about football, we watched the same game and I thought shoretire did well
I dunno just nothing seemed to come off for him and I expect a lot from him, looks a talent.A very bad game for him today. Nowhere to be seen. Almost forgot he’s there. He needs to do more at this stage (along with Amad). They are the closest to the first team and need to take these chances.
I thought shola did well do! Physically he's stronger so I felt he could atleast impose himself.That's what I love about football, we watched the same game and I thought shoretire did well
Elanga is a bit weak, but if you look at his physique he's absolutely ripped! Just goes to show how strong professional footballers are. I think a loan spell will do him good.
Worked hardest out of the attacking players (which should not be underrated).
Didnt manage to create much. Should have scored.

Kept running until the end but the quality of his play was so poor and he got out-muscled several times on top of that.
Cant really see the talent though, should be loaned to the dutch or Belgian league.
If Rangnick rates what he's doing in training then I don't think he should worry too much about his performance tonight. He started in a weak team that were largely terrible. I'm not sure it tells us a lot about what he can offer coming off the bench in to a strong team that's playing okay but needs a goal, which is surely his main job right now.
There's not much there, unfortunately.
Running and hustling will only get you so far.

Works hard, is quite decent in isoball from the left wing, but not much more than that. Would need a lot to make it here.
His movement is really, really good, but he didn’t make the most of that opportunity.
Seems rapid but I'm not sure I see anything apart from that in his game. With Amad you can see a clear higher level of thinking and technique on the ball, even if stuff doesn't come off all the time. With Elanga it's very basic stuff and not much else.
Disappointed tonight
i had hopes for him

He looked like a kid getting his first opportunity, but he's no longer that. Needed to show more.
So Amad vs Elanga is a thing now?
He's 19 and has only played a handful of games, it's not like he's 24 and has a couple of 100 games under his belt and we're all still waiting to see what all the fuss was about.
If anyone needed to show more out there it was DVB, AWB and Lingard.
Both him and Amad were really really disappointing, pretty. much giving the ball away all the time, too laidback on the ball, and never seem to score in their golden chances. One step forward two steps back, still quite far away from being ready for senior football. But fingers crossed lads will learn form this and keep working hard to reach their ultimate goal.
Both himself and Amad need regular first team football out on loan in the second half of the season. Hannibal too. The youngster minutes can go to Shoretire if the opportunity arises.
Amad i thought at least showed some glimpes of quality. Some nice passes and touches.
Elanga was poor throughout.
Yup. Need to remember that Elanga had a very good pre season, potential is there but he needs a step up in opposition. Loan to the Championship all season would have helped his game immensely.
Yeah, I was looking forward to seeing him play but he really didn't do anything of note and missed a great chance.
People just love rushing to wipe off the youngsters …
Elanga is fast but has 0 technical ability. Won't make it here .
Hes probably never going to get enough chances to go up through the gears and iron out his game here. He’s almost definitely a PL standard player though. One of our better products in recent memory. Sell on with a buy back would be a smart move.

Need to go on a loan. He looked like a worse version of bad Rashford out there.
Be surprised if he makes it into our first team.
If he had scored, people would be taking a different view, fine margins!
Worked extremely hard but wasn’t his best on the ball.

Our youngster scouting need to improve.
I see people have already written him off on this basis of a match in which a disjointed xi was started.
This place is a gutter these days.

Some of the comments here are just pathetic. He won't be playing like Messi suddenly. I feel ragnick likes him and we have a decent player in him.
So true! But it’s what it always like here.
So gone from better than Rashford to complete trash in less than a week
Quite disappointing today. Seems like a player who can thrive out on wings, maybe even wing back. But playing up front is a different beast.
Didn't see anything that warrants him space in the PL squad. He needs to go out on loan and find his feet.
