Great for Hiwula,i watched him last week against Marseille,where he also scored,and,although its very early days(17yrs 2 months) i believe he has all the attributes to make a real impact in the game.He has a strong physique and has good power,technique and speed,and most importantly he is a natural finisher,local lad as well! definitely one to watch.....

I want to see some of the yoing lads given a proper chance not just ten minutes here or there

Based on tonight's viewing i don't think any of them barring Hiwula deserve a chance with the first team.

its only one game, players like bunn or suarez should be played more cos apart from razak playing about one and a half games none of them have really been given a chnace to show what they can do

Sometimes only one game is all it takes, Mancini and his staff cannot be at every youth game so they rely on reports coming back and his reports on Suarez and Rekik against a bunch of young part timers kids would be bad hearing based on tonight.

perhaps, but you can never really know how good a player is until there played against good quality opposition, im afraid the price of instant succes means that there is no time to intergrate youth players in the team, look at richards if he had been in the youth team now he would not have a chance, half are youth team a bought aswell why cant we try and bring through more local talent surely there must be one superstar in manchester waiting to be found :)

Although he is a good prospect he is a million miles from being ready for any kind of appearance for the 1st team.

I know that, he is only 17. What i meant to say was based on tonight's viewing he is the only once with a chance that showed any kind of ability tonight.

Think some of the lads will get their chance with the barbaric fixture pile-up in January.
