Initial impressions aren't great, struggles to hold the ball under pressure and his passing doesn't seem great.
Those are literally his main strengths

The lad has played only 2 game. Come on!Im not really sure what his role will be;
Is he a destroyer - NO
Is he a playmaker - NO
Can he dictate tempo - NO
Does he shield well - NO
I suppose only time will tell.

Kind of plays like Jack Wilshere doesn't he. Some nice dribbles through park sometimes, some decent passing sometimes. Loses the ball too much and falls over a lot.
Even not at his best and without a proper preseason yet he was our best player in that second half.

He had a poor game alright but in terms of being the best out of bad bunch I think he was in that second half? I can't think of anyone besides him who did not hide and actually tried forcing the issue.Was he? I like Fred, but I thought he had a poor game

Pogba springs to mind. Although I didn't have a best of a bad bunch, they were all poor. Fred cost us a goal as well
To be honest assigning him any kind of blame for that second goal is a stretch imo he was set up to fail with that pass from his teammate (Victor?), it was at an inconvenient height given his size and being pressed by two players too. Also, I was talking second half only as I don't think he was anything special in the 1st half.Pogba springs to mind. Although I didn't have a best of a bad bunch, they were all poor.

Yep.De Gea and Bailly cost us that goal. Ridiculous pass to make and shocking defending to compound it.
Yeah Shaw is a good shout he didn't do too much wrong.Thought the best out of the bunch was Shaw imo.
He had a pretty poor game overall and struggled with the physicality of such games. His quality is obvious but he'll need a good time to settle and grow some more muscles a little bit.
Think the team needed a Jorginho like calm and composed cerebral passer instead we got this all action midfielder. Think he'll find his feet once he settles in, but I think we added the wrong type of midfielder.
Looks like the midfield equivalent of Bailly to me.
