Worst scout to ever exist
Always feel bad when a youngster has "one of those days" where absolutely nothing comes off. He's not this bad, he's not good enough for the first team of course but wow was he bad today
His debut for the senior team came before Ole's appointment, which is a bit insane to think about. He's been trying to get to the senior team for 5 years now — and counting.Was he a solskjaer signing?
Yep, he's just another in a very long line of academy players who are nowhere close to being good enough. There's no shame in it, only a tiny percentage of them will ever make it to the level required to be part of a CL team. We should accept this and not be too disappointed about shipping academy players outHe gives you that Chris Eagles/Luke Chadwick vibe.
Just not good enough.
Wth I remember when he was announced! Time fliesHis debut for the senior team came before Ole's appointment, which is a bit insane to think about. He's been trying to get to the senior team for 5 years now — and counting.
Chris Eagles at least measured his use of the ball. Chong is a lot more hit and hopeHe gives you that Chris Eagles/Luke Chadwick vibe.

He is championship level or leagues outside the top 5. He can build a decent career for himself if he leaves now, there is no point in him sticking around.He was good at Birmingham. He’s not a Man Utd player but the league one level player stuff is nonsense.
I remember him having a good pre-season tour under Jose and people calling Jose useless because he was ready to start and he wasn’t playing.His debut for the senior team came before Ole's appointment, which is a bit insane to think about.

Honestly, the crowd was laughing at him. Everything he did went wrong. He's nowhere near United standard.I see people being way too harsh as always, just like most wrote off Dalot who I called my favourite player during last season when Rangnick started giving him much needed playing time. I thought Chong did well today, his positioning was really good which resulted in many chances and also connected really well with Laird, Garnacho and Eriksen.
Definitely has a lot to improve, but just like with Dalot last season he needs more games to build up his composure.
I remember being annoyed that Jose didn’t bring him on against Juve at home when we were losing and had a sub left he didn’t use…I remember him having a good pre-season tour under Jose and people calling Jose useless because he was ready to start and he wasn’t playing.
We’ve done this with several players recently. Protecting value and all that.How is this guy still at United? He's 22 now and we had the chance to let go of him this summer but we triggered the option of another year. He apparantly had a decent spell at Birmingham last season besides his injury but did we really expect some club to suddenly cough of a £5m bid for him? Can't see any other reason than that to still keep him around other than hoping for that miraculous bid..

how a manager with 26 major trophies in his career is somehow having a full and complex understanding about football surprise you ?I remember being annoyed that Jose didn’t bring him on against Juve at home when we were losing and had a sub left he didn’t use…
Not wanting to absolve Jose of anything, but a lot of his weird calls have aged annoyingly well.
Wouldn’t everyone? That would be a lot of money for him. Buyers are going to come from Holland/bottom end of the Championship etc.I would take even 2m for him.
Birmingham fans loved him but he struggled to link with their attack at times, chalked up as too good for their players but if he can't excel in the Championship what's the point in him being back here with us?How is this guy still at United?
