Great news. ETH clearly likes him a lot, I think he will have a big future here.

Great news.
He’ll be in the team soon with the way Fred is playing

No real basis for it but I feel he will be a regular part of the midfield rotation next season.
I hope so. I was ready to see Mainoo in action after what we saw of the old Fred for most of the game.
Are we not allowed to know the contract length because he’s still under 18?
I recently heard a rumour, from someone that goes to almost all youth team games, that two rather large Spanish clubs were circling for Kobbie. Fantastic news he’s signed this contract- his potential is massive!
it’s looking like very big things ahead for Kobbie. He’s such a classy talent!
How good is Mainoo? Know very little about him.
His name sounds like he would be wearing bountyhunter armor in a tavern on Tattooine. Very exciting player for the future
Kobbie Wan Mainobi.
Big talent. I have high hopes for him.
Ten Hag spoke about developing a player to fill the Frenkie role, I think Mainoo is that player.
Initially thought that's going to be Iqbal at the start of the season, but the more I see it, it does seem to be tending towards Mainoo
He might, but he is 17. If we don't get FdJ, we should at least get someone with similar abilities (Caqueret, Enzo Le Fee) whilst Mainoo is being developed.
Got bad news about Enzo, bud...
Le Fee
I know mate, I'm just bored and not very funny.
I'd start him against Leeds this weekend.
I like what I've seen of Caqueret, for sure.
17 year old player in a derby against Leeds in front of their, far from nice, fans.
Sounds like a good plan.
Looks a tidy player from the little I saw of him today.
He's gonna be really good in a couple of years.
Looks promising. Looking forward to see more of him in action.
Good short appearance there. Looked confident on the ball.
Really like what I’ve seen so far. Super early days but the fundamental way he plays central midfield seems a lot different to the rest of the players we have — which is very promising
Just based purely on his facial expression, I’m convinced he’s going to make it.
Oooh liked the look of him
He's so comfy on the ball, good to see confidence in that area
Thought that was a quality little cameo, weighted his passes beautifully.
Looked good. Shame we didn't have the ball as much after he came one. Hopefully, he gets to play more.
Great little cameo. Understandably kept things very simple the last couple of run outs he had, but showed a bit more of what he's about today, carrying the ball through midfield, picking the right passes.
Will fecking love it if he's able to fulfil his potential and play next to Casemiro for a couple of years.

Obviously you couldn't hope to make a PL debut in better circumstances than strolling on to the pitch when the match is already won, but his composure was still mightily impressive.
Very good display in his 15 minutes. Proves he can be relied upon when needed
Looks like a real talent. Let's see how he progress in first team, I have high hopes on him.
Quiet elegance. I can't wait to see more.
ETH probably told him to keep it simple and don’t do anything stupid. He did well then.
I thought he done really well when he came on. Kept it simple and linked up well with his teammates. A few more cameos off the bench here and there will be great for him and his development.
Hes got quality, you can see it
He looks good on the ball but kind of slow and stiff.
Colour me impressed. He looked really good. Showed a strong level of technical quality and intelligence albeit in a tiny cameo. Well done!
