Excellent debut considering the magnitude of the game.

Let's not get carried away.For me there was plenty of promise there but he did make a few mistakes, one was crucial and the other two I can remember could well have been. You cant stand off a top striker like Benzema on the edge of the box like he did for the 2nd goal.He almost gave a goal a way with some kind of weak back pass and I wondered what the hell he was doing when let that cross past him from their right wing when he looked in the correct position.
For his age and experience he did fine but lets not suggest he was brilliant

very impressed with the kid. He looked very confident and assured on the ball. A couple of mistakes but he is only 19

A star is born. Don't need to see any more, he has that touch of arrogance in his play that will take him all the way to the very top.
Lescott may be in trouble here.

We conceded 3 goals, of which 1 was his man and he lost the ball a few times.
It's nothing to hold against him but he didn't play especially well. Will reserve my judgement.

I was very impressed, this was a full baptism of fire and he passed with flying colours. Obviously there were a few errors which is expectable at 19. but all in all he was very solid.

I would say Kompany is the one in trouble unless he improves fast

Yeah I agree, I think he needs time , but it looks like he can develop into that piqué/vidic monster of a centre half type to slot in next to Vinny. Do think he was unlucky with the benzema goal, if he gets any tighter on him he's going to get done and because he's give him half a yard, Benzema being world class has gone and done that
