It was mentioned he's had some average games which is fair enough. He's looked knackered recently.

I don't disagree - he needs to be given rest, & far too much responsibility is on him. He's also had a few games where he has made too many bad decisions (like any young player will). That said, he has outperformed everyones' expectations (bar those on this website, of course) and has won us several games in his debut season, all at the age of 20. If anyone thinks he has been at the same level as Lingard, Depay, Mata etc (that is the definition of average, being the same standard as everyone else), surely they need to have their head checked.

This is actually a. Big worry.

I was quoted from the redcafe a few years ago in the independent and it's happened a few times to other guys! Journalist have trolled fans forums for years nothing new.
 
It happened the other week to another member.
 
Thanks again @Dan. You posted the one from shamans last week, right?

Yeah, not sure how long they've been taking quotes from here as i've only started getting the i on a Saturday since The Independent stopped being printed.
 
Everton 1:2 Man Utd
Utter wonderkid. Such a joy to watch when he's on fire.
 
Already proving himself to be a big game player. Can't wait for his prime, hopefully at United:drool:
 
Feel for Besic. Been schooled.
 
Have to laugh at some of our Liverpool posters calling this guy overrated. He's easily the best young talent in Europe right now.
 
He's the closest player to having Ronaldo-like potential that we've had since Viva left the building.

Rooney and Lingard has been very good in the first half but this guy is just on another level, he just oozes class. He will become a very special player in a couple of years.
 
The skill was wonderful but his tracking back is very impressive. He's done it well all season.
 
Great talent, I cannot wait to see him mature and look (sometimes) less clumsy on the ball. I'm not criticizing him, it's just that at times it seems like he decides at the last moment what he's going to do and it can look awkward.
 
Wouldn't say he's complete yet, still has work to do on his finishing. For his age though, he's as complete as it gets.
Sorry, that's what I mean. His base skillset is incredibly complete. There's very little he doesn't have in his game, or hasn't shown this season. One of the most complete young footballers I've seen.

Yeah it does look somewhat awkward, but his close control is quite supreme. Something that only the top dribblers have.
 
I think the only thing he has looked a little weak at is his choice of shot, or not getting a shot away at all, especially around the edge of the box. If he can start cutting in and lashing shots across the keeper, he'll be among the best forwards around.
