I have absolutely no hope on our RW because it's not Mason's position,he is just being shoehorned there due to no one else available.
Facundo Pellistri / SIGNED for United

I'm sure it was reported that he also speaks English, the Manc will come a little later.
can you imagine if we start a game with James, Ighalo and this guy.
Would make the match day thread want to alt f4 from life after half an hour
Ronaldo’s vibes?
Which Ronaldo? Ronaldo Brown?
We are not signing an established winger
Yeah those hopes are dead and buried
This sucks! Greenwood going to be our right winger this season now.
Absolutely irate
All our hopes are in you now kid. It's unfair as a youngster, coming to a foreign country. But if/when Mason needs a night off you gotta produce. Good luck lad.
Mason shouldn't be starting there either but no fecking choice now due to those useless pair of clowns
He will definitely not be second option after Greenwood. Absolutely no chance. I don't think we'll even see him playing this season at all. Maybe in first or second game in Fa Cup at best.
One of the best young wingers on footy manager
That’ll do pig

Tim Vickery was on Sky Sports earlier on, said the about Pellistri;
“He’s a teenage, Uruguayan playmaker, lovely balance, very fluid, bright, sees things. He reminds me a little bit of a kind of prototype David Silva. I like this player a lot but I’m a little bit worried about the move. I’m not sure if it’s the right move at the right time at the right club."
"There was talk last week that he was going to go to Lyon in France but United have stepped in there. The worry is I think that even South American club football is proving a physical challenge for him at this stage in his career. Physically I think he will really, really suffer at the moment in the Premier League. I don’t think he’s ready for that.!
“So there’s always a question mark in these situations of whether the player will lose momentum in his career. He’s a real talent, he’s one for the long term, I hope that my fears aren’t justified that this isn’t the wrong move to the wrong club at the wrong time.”

He does look really really skinny.
Shanta Ronaldo
Why on earth haven't we gone for an experienced option instead because this Traore guy isn't available until Jan
It's a mystery mate. This season is going to be really painful
I am feeling so pessimistic about that right side for yet another season. Mind you has been the case for years so used to that now.
"Help us Facundo Pellistri, you're our only hope"
Yeah I worry greatly by what Vickery is saying as he's knows South American players very well indeed
I did say he reminded me off David Silva yesterday so it's interesting that Vickery sees it similarly. He looks a SS/#10 in the long run.
So he isn't even a RW either FFS
If he gets knocked off the ball by Juan Mata in training he will have no chance in matches.
Ronaldo vibes 
what a post, cheered me up that.
what a post, cheered me up that.I think that's where he'll play until he matures physically.
Silva played on the wings for years. He also isn't David Silva. So yes he is a RW, he might not be the exact style of RW you were expecting is all.
David Silva started as a winger. He’ll be fine.
it would be like us bringing in Varela or Henrique and throwing them in the first team but it seems like this time we actually will be! We are a Europa league side with a CL budget. Still just gutted over sancho even though I knew it was over in August really. Hopefully this lad is a good signing. All the luck to him.
Glad i did mateRonaldo vibes
Brexit and Lyon sniffing around made us buy him. Lets hope he gets some time to get used to it physically. Wouldn't have minded loaning him back for half a year until their season finishes, but guess we may want to have a closer look at him at Carrington
He’s non-EU so don’t think Brexit had anything to do with it.
Wouldnt it be more difficult to get him though?
Uruguayan Daniel James, Can't wait.
Could be on an Italian passport now you say that.
I don’t know how hard it will be to get 18+ players after Brexit, it might be easier with the new rules, job offers and salaries etc.
Has a Spanish passport apparently.
