[kouroux]

Superb cameo. Showed a lot more ball control and linking up that the wrestler

 

[Adamsk7]

His hold up play is light years better than Hojlund.

 

[rooney2009]

Wow Wow
So impressive tonight
He really changed the game
Best I’ve ever seen him play
100% better team player that Rasmus

 

[Godfather]

Very good cameo I thought. Made a real difference

 

[tomaldinho1]

Deserves the next start - his style way more suited to them playing without a striker, get Amad/bruno back at 10 and he can flick it around for them and cause problems

 

[2cents]

I kind of like him, he can make a contribution to this team beyond Rasmus I feel.

 

[Gabriel Djemba-Bebe]

That's what we were hoping for when we signed him! He was key to us sustaining attacks. The ball kept sticking to him.

 

[Gaidal]

Very good hold up, passing and is quite silky. But he moves like Maguire and he has no goal threat. If we want him to be the striker we need goalscorers at the two 10 positions.

 

[JTRI]

Deserves a lot of credit tonight, he seems to be improving and certainly offers a lot more than Holjund currently. He’s never going to be a prolific goal scorer but we look so much more dangerous when he drops deep and plays others in.

 

[Rodgerzzz]

Allowed the team to link some passes into the final third, much better than whatever was going on the first half.

 

[Wayne's World]

Better footballer then Hojlund.

Should be flogging him off to Bologna or Juventus instead

 

[Mmm-Qatarian]

Has to start over Hojlund against Brighton.

Neither offer enough of a goal threat but Zirkzee's all round play is lightyears ahead of Hojlund's.

 

[Ichabod Ferguson]

Best performance in a United shirt to back up a strong performance against Arsenal.

 

[bosnian_red]

Simply has to start from now on. He's far better than Hojlund. Keeps things moving for us and we can actually build up or go long to him if he's playing. Until Hojlund can learn to receive a pass with some pressure on him, he shouldn't be playing.

 

[Denis79]

Did great, deserves a start.

 

[gaffs]

Changed the game when he came on. Links up play much better than Hojlund, which is massive in Amorims system. It is exactly why he had Paulhinia.

 

[VP89]

Insane how much hate he gets here. He's obviously a good footballer and getting comfortable in the team. Wel see more good linkup play like this if we continue play him.

 

[DWelbz19]

The issue has always been (for me anyway) whether the league was too quick for him. He quite clearly has the technical ability

 

[Roboc7]

Deserves a lot of credit, left the field in tears after being subbed against Newcastle but has come back with the right attitude and determination.

Deserves a run of games now, if he can produce more performances like that he will be an asset.

 

[Bole Top]

he's slow, but he moves better and is doing the basics much, much better than Hojlund.

 

[Berbaclass]

Man of the match

 

[Abhinav]

Gotta say, that was a brilliant cameo. He latched onto almost every ball that came his way. Was a stark contrast to Hojlund who was just pants today.

 

[Still ill]

Yeah, confidence a funny thing. So much more zip about him tonight. Very effective. I've a pain in my hoop looking at Rasmus.

 

[-Supreme-]

His all round game is night and day compared to Rasmus. We need to keep him this window and let them fight it out and decide who should be sold in the summer.

 

[Oranges038]

Played well.

Should start the next game, but seems whichever one of him or Hojlund starts they're both shit.

 

[predator]

Was very good tbf. His hold up and dribbling one on one. There is a player in there definitely. He has attributes that other players in his position would kill for.

 

[Ekeke]

Did a good job. I dont think Hojlund was awful as he should have had an assist with his work down the left to set up Garnacho who missed the goal, but he was effective off the bench holding onto the ball and finding passes to our attacking players. Much better his last 2 games

 

[Andycoleno9]

Well....i keep saying from day one; he is not world beater but he is very useful for general play.
He MUST be given run of games because we look way better with him up front.

 

[Fortitude]

Has earned the right to start some games. He definitely helps the team more than Hojlund at the moment. Ably brings others into the play and the ball actually sticks to him.

Clearly potential for growth in his game and he should be rewarded for his contribution over the last few games.

 

[flappyjay]

Looks like he is the type that needs some time to acclimatise to the league. He is definitely the better footballer between himself and Hojlund.

 

[Red the Bear]

Kinda impressed with his mentality, genuinely thought it was over after that game.

Seems to have kicked on instead, good for him.

 

[FlawlessVictory88]

Far far better player than Hojlund.

So frustrating that he doesn't start. We look 10x better when he's on the pitch.

 

[Redplane]

If we can bring in a proper CF and give this lad a bit more time to develop and perhaps drop more in a false 9 role he could be good in the longer term. I don't want to compare him to RvP too much bc he doesn't have the first touch for starters but he does seem to have the clever movements and hold up play that we haven't seen in a while. At least not since Ibra.

 

[Mullet_Man]

Did well, changed the game I think.

 

[OverratedOpinion]

Newcastle game aside he started to kick on a few weeks ago. Really want him starting now.

 

[lost7]

Fair play to the lad, showing incredible mental strength after that shocker

 

[Devil_forever]

He brings everyone else into the game. We don’t have a proper goal scorer, so he seems the best option to get the best out of this attack.

 

[Martial'sEmergingSmile]

Completely changed the game. Made things stick, brought his teammates into the game, took up intelligent positions, has real technical class and just gave us a level of control we didn't have.

Also shoutout to his pressing on the last goal. Amad was obviously great but Zirkzee's part will go under the radar. He was huge there in cutting off both passing lanes.

 

[REDARMY45]

Changed the game has to start over that blonde feller.

 

[Remember the geese]

Looked every inch the classy player from the YouTube videos last summer.
