Front four for League Cup games this year (hopefully):
---------Wilson
Depay--Pereira--Januzaj
Very interchangeable.
If he wants any chance of breaking into the first team this year he will have a normal 2 week holiday and return!Will this guy go on the tour with us if hes just played a major tournament at his level?
I dont know if he is yet ready for the first team, a loan spell might be a good option after xmasIf he wants any chance of breaking into the first team this year he will have a normal 2 week holiday and return!
I think he's ready for minutes, but perhaps not difficult away games. I would certainly prefer giving him time in midfield over dropping Rooney back anyway. We need to test these players and see if they will sink or swim.I dont know if he is yet ready for the first team, a loan spell might be a good option after xmas
Considering the amount of times he was involved on the bench, van Gaal obviously sees something he likes, so with the added game, he should make at least 10 appearances in my opinion.
I agree but the loan would have to be somewhere in Europe, not the Premier League or Championship, I can't see a club using him at the bottom of the Premiership. I would rather 10 appearances at United than 10 in a relegation battle. If they can get a move somewhere in Europe, that would be best though, I agree.if he is going to spend most of the time on the bench and only make 10 appearances then he would probably be better off with a loan where he plays regularly
Aye, with Fellaini back and Herrera seemingly struggling to get minutes, maybe we should be looking at loaning him out?Will he get a chance soon I wonder?
No point in loaning imo. We lack in numbers up front and he will get his minutes, I hope.Aye, with Fellaini back and Herrera seemingly struggling to get minutes, maybe we should be looking at loaning him out?
I hope so, though Januzaj struggled for minutes last season too iirc. Thoug understandably we were extremely top heavy.No point in loaning imo. We lack in numbers up front and he will get his minutes, I hope.
Wouldn't he just be competing with Herrera for a spot on the bench?No point in loaning imo. We lack in numbers up front and he will get his minutes, I hope.
Soooooo....with Januzaj and Hernandez gone, will this lad now get some proper game time?
Looked good in pre-season, better then Januzaj in fact, but hasn't been since the season started, with Januzaj getting the minutes instead.
What do we reckon?
Hope so, see no reason why not
I just find it strange that he's not even been making the bench, while Januzaj has been starting and is now loaned out.

I don't think that's a coincidence with Januzaj. He was tested to see if he was ready and Van Gaal thought otherwise. Sure he did the same at the beginning of last season as well (with other players).
So will Pereira now be tested? If he 'fails' does he get loaned out too?
Surely he's the one that actually needed to be tested, as Januzaj is actually proven (somewhat) at PL level.
