I've heard rumors that the guy love casinos and the night life. Maybe there's a reason why he's falling down the pecking order.

Those rumours were doing the rounds a few years back. Not heard anything since then though to be honest.

In a way that Aston Villa goal came too soon for him and brought him too much pressure to perform.The goal that helped United to the title had a sort of negative aspect on his young career

To be fair to the kid he looks in tremendous shape. A lot bigger and stronger than last year.

But no place for him here, and when he goes on loan he clearly doesn't impress managers.

This.

That goal put him in the first team, when the reality was he still should of been playing reserve football or on loan playing in the Championship at most. He wasn't anywhere near ready for first team Premier League football and because of multiple loan move failures, he's taken years off his developement and probably won't start showing his true potential until he's 25, which we probably won't wait for.

I cant see the value in keeping him and havent seen anything to change my mind that he has improved with his loan spells. I would sell him off immediately.

Always thought he could do it but that villa goal was too much too season even if it was a fecking beauty.

If he is joining celtic I hope this loan goes really well for him. He's not going to get any games here this season with the forwardline we are packing. Ultimately I think his future will lie elsewhere it's a tall order getting into our first eleven and don't think he offers enough to warrant even a place on the bench in the smaller games. He got a couple of goals but never really took much from the experience by the looks of things.
