José Mourinho said:
Micki is a fantastic player,

What I like more is something that is undeniable which is the number of goals that he scores by not being a striker.

His number of goals per season is really high for somebody that is not a striker. The number of assists is also very clear because it shows clearly his creativity, his vision, his concept of collective play, and - something that I believe is really important for a club like us that will try to be dominant and will face for sure teams with a very defensive profile - is his capacity of acceleration of the game.

He has a change of speed with the ball and without the ball that is very, very important for a club like us.
Lucescu said:
His game awareness may be his most valuable quality, that and the speed, power and technique Henrikh was gifted by nature and has developed.
Tuchel said:
He's a great example and one of the best players [even if] he hasn't peaked yet.
Jürgen Klopp said:
There is no doubt in my mind that he is one of the most talented players in the world.

really excited by this signing. Mkhitaryan should really add something that we've been missing - some penetration on the right. I know some would prefer him in the centre, but the idea of him and Martial supporting Zlatan from the wide positions is what gives me most hope for this season.

feck, if our strikers have their scoring boots on, this lad's gonna have a big load of assists this season.

If this is anything to go by then we still need a right winger. Would be a shame not to use him in a free role behind Zlatan.

Some of the comments, damn. He's a great player and will help Utd but this is still the same player that was just decent in 13/14 and crap in 14/15. His very best season so far was the last one. Some of the comments are very OTT.

He's going to be one of our most influential players this season.

What on earth has 2013/14/15 got to do with people commenting on his performance during 45 minutes against Wigan? Lighten up.

Should've scored but he'll be fine. He's creative, his touch is good and he's always in a position to score.

The guy is class, many United fans are going to be very surprised how much quality he has. Fantastic signing and will be one of the signings of the season.

I'm thinking we need to pluck a scout or two from Shakhtar Donetsk.

He seems to embody exactly what we've lacked for fecking ages. Quick, forward thinking and an incisive passer. What I expected - but didn't see enough of - from Mata.
Its scary how easily he looks a level above any of our attackers in just one half. It says a lot about how standards have fallen at this club that a Dortmund minor star can look so technically above anything we have.

Someone said here he'd pick Embolo over him.

Mahrez is seemingly on the market, would be a great RW option if we want to move Mkhi inside.

Entirely new level of world class. He is going to change the way football is spelled.

No it's not. Let's just wait it out how he performs. He might become another Kagawa for all we know.
Geez, you're an annoying poster.

Ander Herrera has been slightly underwhelming. Mata has been underwhelming. Memphis has been very shit. I'll wait and see instead of getting hysterical immediately.

True in what you say there, but it has absolutely nothing to do with giving some praise to mkhitaryan.

He had a good first half, some lovely passes and runs. He stood out a mile. Praise him up now, call him shit if he becomes shit, no point holding anything back.
