No he wasn't.
No clips there of his game against Newcastle at St. James which I was at. He came on early for Young I think who busted his hand from memory. He played so well that day and got a sweet goal.
There were large periods where everybody was saying that we were being carried by an 18 year old. Obviously didn't win senior player of the year for us that year, but he was important.
I don't get why so many are trying to downplay his form that year. Obviously there is some angle that people have which means giving Januzaj any recognition isn't possible.
No he didn't.He showed glimpses but no more. He completely fell off the rails in December and you could legitimately count on one hand his good performances since then. That was 2 years ago.

Have we forgotten so soon how this kid was the only bright spark in the Moyes era. The boy singlehandedly carried the team on his back, we were loving it back then. All of a sudden he is useless? This place at times.
So, his form from 2 years ago means he deserves a shot? To me, that's just laughable. Perhaps we should bring Van Persie back, his form 3 years back was incredible.The video is sort of my reasoning for it.
Look at the form he was able to produce when he was in the team regularly and played in a role that suits him.
He destroyed teams.
That's why he deserves a shot.
You mean in the same way people called Van Persie useless last year? 2 years after he had been top class?Have we forgotten so soon how this kid was the only bright spark in the Moyes era.

In my opinion people completely overblew his performances that season. Yes, he was very good. But people were talking about him as being better than Ronaldo etc. Way OTT. Now, you're right, people are calling him useless, which is again OTT.I remember the thread full of posters laughing off a huge offer from PSG saying that in no way should we sell him.
People are very short sighted at times, quick to label a prospect as the future and even quicker to relegate their prospects following a patch of bad form
I hope Januzaj is watching Rashford. Talent means nothing without results.
We don't know what his attitude is like do we though. Rumours are he's being dumped for attitude and not talent.If I am Januzaj I'll watch how Memphis has been given chance after chance by LVG while I am not even coming on as a sub despite always showing promise.
He really hasn't always shown promise though. He was poor last year, had a decent first game of this season and was poor after that. He was also poor in Dortmund.If I am Januzaj I'll watch how Memphis has been given chance after chance by LVG while I am not even coming on as a sub despite always showing promise.

Don't think he was that poor in Dortmund. Did you see some of his matches? I saw highlights and he had some great assists. Even if he was crap throughout the matches, those assists alone wouldn't deem him as "poor" I think. Besides, it's not like we have attackers scoring goals and assists left and right. A young player needs to be given a run as they will be a bit inconsistent.
Rumors are just rumors as far as I'm concerned. On the pitch his attitude seems fine.

It was a lot more than glimpses. You don't get International teams falling over themselves for you, given a nice new contract at United along with the no.11 shirt off just glimpses.
He was a bit like Martial, in a way, where he quickly became our main threat ahead of Nani, Kagawa etc and teams recognised this, doubled up on him and reduced his influence. That said more about the rest of the team than Januzaj, and Martial now. I wouldn't say either just became bad or lost form, they were/are just well dealt with but still produce the best moments.
There's been plenty of chatter about Depay's attitude as well if that's the comparison.
Martial and Rashford already have done far more at MUFC than Januzaj ever did. Rashford has scored 2 against Arsenal and 1 now against City.
Where are those international teams ilthat want Januzaj now? If it really was more than glimpses he wouldnt have been dropped from Dortmund and there would be teams in for him now.
Where are these mysterious teams that rate and want Januzaj? Where?
If I am Januzaj I'll watch how Memphis has been given chance after chance by LVG while I am not even coming on as a sub despite always showing promise.
What you want the teams to do ? Publicly announce one by one ?
I am sure there will be plenty of clubs really delighted to take a talent like Januzaj if we were foolish enough to sell him.
Yes which is why Dortmund sent a free Januzaj home early.
i think he wanted to come back early. They didnt send him back
I personally think it's disappointing when he can't get minutes coming on for the likes of Lingard who don't offer an awful lot.
Really? I think Lingard is a vital part of our team nowadays.
God help us if he is.Really? I think Lingard is a vital part of our team nowadays.
Yes which is why Dortmund sent a free Januzaj home early and there are literally zero transfer market rumors for Januzaj despite him being in his 3rd season for us. This means if we get rid it will be for some small fee to some mid-tier club.
Martial and Rashford already have done far more at MUFC than Januzaj ever did. Rashford has scored 2 against Arsenal and 1 now against City. Rashford was incredible today and if we do get 4th it will be largely due to him.

Where are these mysterious teams that rate and want Januzaj? Where? Thats right they dont exist.
Fell out with Van Gaal who doesn't rate him slash thinks he has a poor attitude and is a bit to into himself. No crime talking about it, he's talented and a young player who the fans want to see.I don't understand how this guy never plays yet this thread is always top 5 in the Player Performance Section.
Maybe....
He's just not that good?
Behave.I personally think it's disappointing when he can't get minutes coming on for the likes of Lingard who don't offer an awful lot.
Agree to an extent but if the rumours are true, and I'm just saying if, then it makes sense he's not playing as the attitude in training needs to be right to be considered for a matchDon't think he was that poor in Dortmund. Did you see some of his matches? I saw highlights and he had some great assists. Even if he was crap throughout the matches, those assists alone wouldn't deem him as "poor" I think.
