Man Utd 1:2 Norwich
He's playing kind of deep today, would be nice to see him up front, making runs rather than right-mid, or whatever his position is on paper.
Only player today with a bit of quality.
Incredible feet. Did the same against Bournemouth without the goal to finish it off.

Imagine United's attack if this guy's last minute transfer didn't happen.
The wrong man is on £300k/week
He seems to be our best playmaker as well as best striker, ridiculous really.
His close control is so so good.
This stinks of Fulham at home in the Moyes era.
The only bright spark today.
I only hope that this guys is here when we actually appoint someone who likes to play positive football
Very quick footed with nice tight control for the goal, still not sure where his position is at the moment.
His best position is at no9. Anywhere else would be a talent wasted.
Statistically our best player.

Our only bright light. The only player currently at the club, when it comes to our attack, that I think is good enough if we want to build a world class team again.
We played him on the feckin right wing. In a 433 as part of the left three I can sort of understand, but feckin right wing.
And no shock, we push him up front and he scores.
Its just mind boggling.

It's crazy to think that he's not being considered as our number one striker now because he should be.
He is our No.1 striker and LVG knows it.
But Rooney is err...
...Shit?
Absolute class this lad. Far too much responsibility on his shoulders right now. He's the only one looking capable of pulling something off.
He's world class. Looking jaded at times, but he should never have to be playing this many games in his debut season.
The whole attack needs reinvigorating, apart from this lad of course, he's magic.
Missed the match, watched his highlights and didn't get disappointed. He's the bright spot of the season.
Any gifs of his goal? Can't bring myself to watch MOTD.
Thanks. He really is a class act.
There would be no reason, other than it being Manchester United, to watch us if we didn't have this kid.
Sad but pretty much true. To think he was a last minute 'gamble' in the summer. I knew our summer transfer activity was bad but it's turned out even worse than I feared.
Need to watch a closeup slow-motion video of the goal to truly appreciate the beauty of the goal. So much quicker of thought than everyone else around him.
I'm looking forward to watching this player for years to come. Given his age and current abilities, his potential is very exciting. Imagine him in a truly attacking team that plays with pace and aggressiveness!
It's just insane.
It makes no sense. Our most potent attacker is played in the position he's least comfortable playing in. The thought process behind it is "special".
Erm why not?
Luke Shaw played every game for Southampton in his teen years. Theres no age for quality.
Pushing him out of position in order to accommodate Rooney is an utter disgrace.
An absolute fecking disgrace.
An absolute fecking disgrace.
Yup, shoving him away from left wing/#9 to fit two inferior players in those positions is just fecking mental.
Its absolutely inexcusable.
LVG should be sacked for that alone. I genuinely fear for Martial's progress if we stick with LVG.
I would understand if we were moving him around to accommodate Messi. But fecking Rooney? Come on!

Far too much responsibility being placed on him at the moment as the only creative outlet in such an enormous team. Luke Shaw never had to deal with anything remotely similar, not to mention the price tag.
I like him more on the left then anywhere else really. He gets too isolated up top because of how we play, while out on the left he gets involved a lot more often and he can be a constant threat with his dribbling. When he's our best player in any of the front 4 positions, it doesn't really matter where you play him, he'll still put in good performances. I'm all for playing him where we'll have the best team overall, or have him the most involved.
I was thinking the same thing during the Moyes season with Januzaj.
