He may well do, but if he is worried about losing his place, as it will be with all the current squad still here in pre season, then that can only be good for the club.I hope he can show his worth to ETH in pre-season...but you just know McTominay will put in a few MotM performances on tour before turning back into Joe Average after the first game of the season.
Probably made up (the news) like most of the nonsense writtenThere were reports Ralf was livid with him after the Liverpool game but they were either not true or they've made up.
Getting a chance to prove himself in the "tadic" role as well. Wonder how much of an influence ETH had on that selection?Probably the only interesting or vaguely positive thing about today.
Ten Hag is in the stands, so it’s a good opportunity to make an impression.
Totally agree. Only negative is he is playing on the left wing probably and we have plenty of options there (whether good enough or not). Id have loved to have seen him at some point this season playing the Fernandes role or a deep lying play maker, but its a start and wing seems to be a starting poitn for lots of attacking younger players. Also if Clyne is starting, that is a competent and experienced defender which is a good test for himProbably the only interesting or vaguely positive thing about today.

He'll probably be on the left, with Elanga playing on the right.Hope he hasn't been shunted to RW. For me is a CM and can manage as a LM.
Who is in this team?He isn't ready.
Bit of a cheap shot. These are hardly conditions for a young player to thrive are they? Let's see how he and some of the others get on next season under a competent coach and hopefully what will be a renewed attitude.He isn't ready.
Quite the opposite if you ask me. The first challenge for a youngster when entering men's football is handling the intensity and physicality. Very few showcase their full technical abilities immediately. Today showed that he can cope with the intensity.He isn't ready.
He needs mental and emotional maturation. He's gotten more cards than shots on goal or key passes played. Talented yes, mentally ready, no way.Quite the opposite if you ask me.

I'm not saying he isn't good enough or that he doesn't have enough talent, he just doesn't look ready for this level right now.Bit of a cheap shot.

Tbf, if we were to judge our entire XI today or in the last month we can say that about every single one of them.He isn't ready.
But it's impossible to judge that. What if he was being eased into a winning team with confidence under a quality manager? In my opinion, there has never been a time where coaching has been more important than it is now.I'm not saying he isn't good enough or that he doesn't have enough talent, he just doesn't look ready for this level right now.
Most of the team was better than Bruno as he was terrible. Hannibal contributed little, but wasn’t terrible. Has a long way to go in his development.He was better than Bruno.
That is worryingDidn't look out of place in that United side.
Nothing to do with the hair of course!Needs to be more disciplined. Reminds me of Guendozi, who I rated back when he was at Arsenal, just needs the right guidance.
