If Memphis gets his finger out the potential movement between the two could be frightening
 
The kid's mentality is immense. This is the biggest game of our season, every season. Liverpool had just got back into it with a brilliant goal. The press have been droning on about his price tag all through the international break. He gets the ball in a decent area with a lot to do, and despite all the pressure, he ghosts past the Liverpool defence like they're not there and finishes as if it were a training game. Ooh la la. Martial has a whole truck load of Vava Voom.
 
Martin Tyler's commentary was reminiscent of his reaction when Aguero banged in that goal against QPR in injury time which won them the PL a few years ago.

Irony.
 
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.

I can't believe he wasn't booked for that.
 
I'd swear I have seen Henry score identical goals

Especially the actual finish
Yep.

The finish curled finish in to the corner is bordering on plagiarism but the way he does Skrtel, as well, is very reminiscent of that infuriatingly good bloke.
 
He's done more wearing that number 9 in half an hour than Falcao did all season. A proper United kind of signing.
 
I was so happy he scored. I feel for the boy, he was branded a flop before he even got a chance to kick the ball. Disgusting
 
I love how the pitch of the "Yes" rises as the ball bulges into the net..great goal..great moment..

Martin Tyler sure knows how to pick a moment.

Guaranteed this will be used in many Sky adverts to come in the future.
 
He's just answered his critics in the best possible way. High pressure game and classy debut goal. Didn't even seem fazed by the occasion. He's highly rated for a reason and i'll love to see him make the doubters eat their words.

Say something about that transfer fee now?!
 
What a way to start his United career! Superb first goal.
 
Glad he scored. Beyond the obvious reasons it also instantly shut up the swooning over the Benteke goal.
