This kid - I have no doubts, he's the real deal. International player within 2 seasons...
 
Really hope we keep him as fourth/fifth choice striker.
 
Just read on twitter he's got 27 goals in his last 31 appearances at all levels for United. Impressive.
 
Reminds me of a young alan shearer

TBF he seems more akin to a young Feyenoord/ Arsenal - Van Persie. Great acceleration, elegant gait, quick decision making and a brilliant left peg. Should be ready to take over full time when the Dutchman retires.
 
This kid is born to score. How the feck did he not make the US squad?

I compared him with a Owen but yeah I was really really wrong. Wilson's has the look of a Van Persie, he's all round game is really class(I'm always surprised how good is passing is).
 
Pretty clear he can't spend another season in the reserves. If Hernandez does go he has to be in the first team squad, I'd be loathed to see him go on loan at this stage.

The 4th goal could have been Thierry Henry at his best.
 
I hope Van Gaal is watching :drool:

Video of his third and fourth? Or were they not that special compared to #1 and #2?

It sure is. We have some great young talents between him, Adnan, Pearson, Blackett, Pereira and company. Van Gaal must be chuffed. :devil:

Josh Harrop was aslo brilliant tonight when he came on in the second half

Although we need a signing in midfield I'm not too worried in the long term with the talents we've got coming through. And add Van Gaal's record with youth players the next few years(hopefully)could be really special.

Yes him too. I'd rather we promote from within and give them a try if the chance to sign absolute top quality players doesn't materialize.

100 % agreed. :)
 
BTW where can one see the 3rd goal ? Not on youtube.. :confused:
 
LVG will be well aware of this kid and he won't be afraid to put him in the first team either.
 
I reckon this guy will be better than Welbeck in a few years.
