If Januzaj gets the game time, I think he could have a breakthrough season as a striker, and get into double figures for goals scored.

MagicIRL

Johnston has impressed me so far. Would be ideal to see him playing in the League Cup and FA Cup runs, and maybe the odd League game if an injury surfaces.

Darmian is my man of the match.

He did well tonight but wasnt great the first two games but if he continues to improve it will be all good.

Depay a close second.

Young and Shaw combined well,some serious pace down that side.

ah now lets not get carried away, would just like to see him get more game time this year and hopefully see some improvement with more experience.

Sky's description of the 3rd goal:
"Just as we brace ourselves for a grandstand finish, Adnan Januzaj settles the contest. An aimless punt up field baffles Bartra who stumbles and hands possession to Januzaj in the Barca area. The United winger makes no mistake in slotting the ball home from close range. Game, set and match United!"
Hardly an "aimless punt up field", and Bartra didn't hand him possession, Januzaj was on the ball.

I don't like Januzaj played as a winger, but I do as a striker, a bit like Rooney in that regard.

Quandary

Have to agree with people on Darmian. He looks like a proper right back. If we can keep himself and Shaw fit we should be sorted!

He needs to find his feet somewhere one thing i will say is he showed great speed and control tonight i just hope keeps it up now.

Indeed. What a load of tosh that description is. It was a long pass forward that Adnan controlled very well to take past the defender and slot the ball home.

Ha ha I was wondering alright as you seem to have a sense of humour! Had an abusive reply ready but said I'd test out the waters just in case you were being sarcastic.

Considering one of his "strongest" attributes that people always refer to is his "putting in a shift and tracking back", he seems to struggle once he leaves the front line.

Really wish we could get one of those shock collars you can get for animals, and make it that if he leaves the opposition box, it shocks him :pac: When he stays in the box, he can be a superb poacher and target man, and we've got the team to supply him now.

i'd love it to happen don't get me wrong, but there's plenty of time for him to bang in loads of goals, get him gametime, more experience in the side first though and we should hopefully see him come on leaps and bounds, think he needs to bulk up a little bit too if im being honest.

He'll have to work on his smashing the ball against defenders shins to compete with Tony.

Weird sense of humour would be better description. Should of kept it going or a bit then i was in mood for narky fight haha.

I was wondering how Chelsea were getting on. They were schooled by a NY Red Bulls youth side the other day. Cheers for letting us know.

Probably is a little bit more accurate of a headline tbf. But, I do believe AdM is off.

If he leaves, he leaves. That break in was horrific and if he and his family want to move, then I'm happy to see him go. It's a case of what if because he did next to nothing last year and Young was far better than him all year.

LVG is praising Adnan non stop in the press conference.

I think we're gonna do the quintuple

He's not the first or last player to be broken into,I've a feeling his family see Paris as more attractive than Manchester and the break in is the perfect excuse.

If he does well in France,we'll be criticised but in fairness Ligue 1 is pretty shite with only 3 decent teams.

It will be the jekyll and Hyde show wherever he goes. We get close to 50m for him it's great business

Di Maria as good as gone now.
Didn't fly in to the states as expected.

Anyone else think aside from his goal, Rooney was fairly average? I thought his control was a bit loose and his movement wasn't very sharp. Took his goal well and I suppose that's his job if he's the main man up front but I'd like to see him looking a lot sharper come the start of the season.

Rooney gonna Rooney.

Apparently the price quoted that we paid included bonuses and add-ons,I doubt any of them will kick in if he's off.We'll probably break even and that'll be decent business but of course the usual sniping will say we made a loss on a flop (who only came 2nd to Hazard for assists)

Rumours that he's in New York to do a medical for PSG.

Yep he ticked the box saying he had been arrested before by mistake, so didn't get his Visa, would have been too much trouble to try sort it out in time so he just stayed behind :pac: typical Paddy tbh
