service was pretty poor. In the 1st half, imoroved in the 2nd, his link up play needs improving a little, dont think he's suited to playing up front on his own,

He looked better when he got moved out to the right wing,

Showed good pace a couple of times, and he looks an athlete,

Nothing to rave about and nothing to condem him,

I dont see anything from him that justifies us signing him when we have Macheda and Welbeck of similar ages and they seem better i'm not a huge Macheda fan but still.

But who knows maybe the fitness thing has played apart, and the tactics didnt help him,

Its not a Dong signing, but if he turns out to be a serious hit i'd be a little suprised, especially given the competition upfront.

On another note, Cleverly was excellent.

i didnt wanna be so blunt, but yeah on the basis of this performance that'll be fair.

I saw somthing on twitter last night from a reporter that summed it up, if we were talking about a 17 year old then it'd be promising, but for someone of this age, i hope his learning curve is a really fast one.

Saf didnt do him any favours either by admitting that he's never seen him play. Thats what got the vultures really circling.

Im just hoping that the spiel about him lacking fitness is true, even though i find it harrd to belive as he had more of a preseason than the likes of Anderson and Ferdinand but they got the nod for the reserve games, will be interesting 1 way or another, whats for sure is that we'll never ever find out for sure how much we've actually paid upfront for the guy.

And thats probably a good thing.

thats what i was thinking and how i understood it, but i was shouted down and told that surely The club would've been smart enough not to do that,

Not even SAF'S obsession with Madrid would force him into trying to get one over on them.

Wink wink nudge nudge,

If that story never came out in the Real Madrid paper, i think its safe to say SAF would've never heard of him.

He only said that so if in 3 years time he does turn quality he can say memba back in 010 when i said he would be quality and everyone said he was gonna flop ttkk etc

Thats exactly what it is,

Its a no lose situation tbh, even if he gets proved wrong he'll just come across as a overly fanatical supporter with bags of faith.

as i said, heres hoping anyway.

HOW OLD IS HE?

Also if SAF hadnt seen him play who actually bought him to Man Utd? I also thought SAF was one of the very very few manager who gets to pick and choose the type of players he wants

He turned 20 in July 4 months older than Welbeck,

And i'm almost certain Fergie got him to get 1 up on Real,

Especially seeing as it around the same time, it was clear they'd be getting Ozil.
