This guy looks like United could have finally unearthed a gem they’ve been looking for, since the heady days of the Ferguson/Webb combo.
He’s had a loan with them during their dismal last season after dallying with a few rivals. His output looked great for United- 2 games, 2 wins, and even got a red card out of their opponents.
Liverpool looked favourites when he had a quick trial, achieving a spectacular 5-1 victory, a slight unbalanced flirtation with City also happened.
But the summer seems to have solidified the full transfer to United with a couple of stunning performances abroad including lifting the coveted PL summer series cup.
It will be interesting whether he can carry this form into the new season from the start, or perhaps United will protect their young asset and only throw him on nearer the end of the season if Amorim discovers the rest of the squad are just falling short of getting a result needed.
He’ll definitely have the backing of the United heirachy (all the way to Masters) for his performances in front of the Stratford paddock, it’s whether that home form can be truely be brought to bear away from home, in front of hostile crowds, keeping a firm grip on carrying the cards close to his chest, before delighting the United fans by some deft handiwork and ensuring they regular see the red flashing towards the opposition.
