Never seen him play, never heard much about him till recently, watched his youtube video and am impressed with his goals.

All in all I know feck all about it, but I'll always welcome young talent so here's hoping he goes on to be a superstar!!

Why? He might not need it.

I'd rather he had a years education at United before anything like that was even considered. By then he could be ready. Who knows...
Straight in the first team, banging in goals as far as I can see.

Hope he takes all our free-kicks next season too.

It's very unlikely he'll be good enough yet, I mean the route has worked well with Welbeck and Cleverley. I think we'll put him in the reserves first to see how he goes this season and then he'll have a loan.

So are the Powell/Xavi/Messi comparisons as level-headed as the Manucho/Pele comparisons that ended up coming true?

The new Beckham. Give him 2 years and he will be emerging as a dream marketing package. Girl bands, watch out.

Fergie and the scouts obviously see something special in the lad since the attacking midfield position is probably the position we have most quality and depth in throughout the reserves and academy in my opinion

Look at the hack of the trousers he's wearing, below the right sleeve of that United shirt. feck me, them's a sight. They make the shirt pattern look palatable. Get rid!

Welcome aboard. If he follows in Ronaldo's career at United, i.e. glimpses of great potential in first 2 years and then explodes after that, that should do.

Youtube compilers are fecking wankers, why would I want to see goals by midfielders? It's a plus but I'd rather see their assists, general composure and passing ability on the ball.

Wha is it with everyone wanting to loan out new players. Everybody wants a new attacking midfieder you've got one.
Think people are suggesting a loan because he's come off a season of regular first team football and sticking him in the reserves wouldn't help him progress since he's played at a similar standard and performed.

The keep him until January and loan him out to a Championship team suggestion works best I would think.
