Dream debut. Attacked the space!
 
Just seen the goal again & it's probably the most excited Tyler's been for a United goal since Macheda's goal.
 
Martin Tyler's commentary almost makes it a macheda moment

feckign amazing

I've just watched it ten more times
 
Type of thing which makes legends. Keep it going son.
 
Wonderful goal & a good start for him.

Right in the face of all the haters
 
Not often I get animated whilst watching Utd from the sofa, but I did jump up and shout there!

Looks good, really good.

Still talking about my price feckers?
 
I hope that shuts up all the wanna be accountants with their theories on why the transfer is over priced.

Who cares ? Id rather have that money being overspent on players than being overspent on dividends.
 
Classic Henry finish as well, he didn't do well to shake off the comparisons :lol:
Wasn't it just? The quick dribbling past his man and placing it in the far corner. Even the expression-less look on his face when he celebrated (in the huddle). Although it wasn't a look of nonchalance, he can't do that just yet, more of a down to earth "not-getting-ahead-of-myself-here" look.
 
Great start for the player, huge boost of confidence for him. Was absolutely delighted after the commentary when he scored, was a bit hilarious:lol:. We should not overhype him though, he has a long way to go..
 
Best thing about him was that he looked so composed, like he played 10000 matches before and just couldn't give a shit. Like you took the most cool kid from the street and put him on the pitch, you can't get a better debut than that really.
 
I genuinely think he has the same high ceiling of potential that young Ronaldo and Rooney has shown at about same age.
 
36M? Bargain!! What a fecking goal, and something we've missed - directness.

Seriously though, I just hope the fans don't expect too much from him. We can't expect that from him every week, and he probably will be a bit inconsistent because he's a young player, but today we all saw what he can produce.
 
That goal on its own, honestly to me, makes his price tag worth it.

What composure, technical ability, and intent he showed in running at the Liverpool defence and calmly tucking it past the Mingolet, right in front of the Stretford end.

Take a bow son, welcome to Manchester United. May you have a long and illustrious career with us.

That's exactly how he is which is fantastic considering his age and how easy it'd be for him to be ecstatic about his life right now.

Great post mate, sums it up perfectly.
 
A couple of points.

As it seemed from the clips, he looks very powerful for a 19 year old. The moment when Lovren kept trying to kick shits out of him and still couldn't get the ball highlighted this. This is something we've needed from a striker for awhile now and it bodes well for us and him.

Also, it's just one game, but he doesn't look lacking in self belief to me. Seems to be a calm young and confident young man.
 
Delighted for the lad as that goal will have done his confidence a world of good and could even have a bearing on his impact this season.
If he had come on and done poorly tonight then there would be cries of "not ready yet", whereas now I doubt anyone would have qualms with him starting.

In addition to the goal, his piece of holdup play with Lovren fouling him was fantastic, because it spoke volumes about his character. He didnt go over, he kept on fighting and competing, when it may have been easier to buckle or shrink away. Aside from his goal that was honestly the highlight of his debut for me.
