Keane > Messi
Reserves v Newcastle H
- Thread starter Maciej
- Start date
Agent Pogba
That was very nicely done by Petrucci
Pogba's a wee bit too casual for my liking, I think he tried to head that back to his keeper then. He needs a loan spell after this season if he's still here. He reminds me of Welbeck when he was younger at the moment in that he's very gifted but he's a bit too casual, Welbeck's work-rate has developed a lot since then and hopefully the same will happen with Pogba.
Great play from Pogba at the byline!
All that said he's a wonderful specimen Pogba, great physical frame and technical ability, hope he stays here for a long long time.
Yeah he's really starting to impose himself on this game now! It's probably just not really his style but he only seems to lack that little bit of urgency.
That movement from Keane, my word.
Great goal all round there! Terrific through ball from Petrucci and calm finish from Keane.
Petrucci doing well
Petrucci is beggining to shine
Pogba and Keane are bossing this.
Good play by Pogba there.
Scary upside with Pogba, if we can get his work-rate to improve and if he has good mental strength he'll go very far.
Shouldve been 2
Fryers doing an Evra.
Norwood's long range passing is worth a mention. Ridiculously accurate at times.

Are Brown and McGinty injured?
Most of our boys won't make it, our youth setup has been and still is a long way behind where it should be.
We've only really put any kind of focus into it very recently, for years we've lost local players to Boro and Sunderland or others have slipped through the net completely. Ridiculous really considering what should be a hotbed of young talent. Last 10 years and I can count the number of graduates to actually make it on one hand (Taylor, Carroll, Ameobi, Chopra, Ramage...and I'm struggling).

Our reserve have some excellent midfield talent. Tunners, Pogba, Morrison, Lingard, Cole, Petrucci will all have good career(hopefully some of them here)
Thorpe on for Pogba.

I'm dreading tomorrow's press conference injury update.
Absolutely wonderful watching Pogba, Lingard, Cole, Petrucci, Norwood and Keane in the same team. Pogbers off for Thorpe at HT.
Thorpe's gonna play in midfield then?

Crerand "Is he Anfield bound for Saturday?!". Crerand is so cool! So is Pogba.
Mike Keane moved forward perhaps?
Why's that
worthy? He's miles away from being ready to be playing for the first team at Anfield. I'd much rather he was nowhere near the matchday squad.Its exciting to see new young players get a chance in the first team.
Why's that
It's natural for people to get excited over young talents, just as it's natural for you to get excited over any financial thread made on the Caf. He's also not miles away and hence why he has been recently involved with the first team(getting on the subs bench) etc..Obviously Fergie thinks that he's the most ready out of them all.
Why's that
He's pretty much been involved in all the Matchday Squads since the Blackburn game at OT. He was at the Emirates, on the bench against Bolton, he was at the Etihad too.
2-0
Not when they aren't ready and we're forced to include them in the squad due to a ridiculous number of injuries. It's anything but exciting. Terrifying more like.
What a goal 
Oh dear, goalkeeper. Oh dear.
Stupid Swede.
Norwood genius.
What a corner. Too hot to handle.
What a corner. Too hot to handle.
Why's that
Because we're United fans and the potential for a youngster to become a hero against our rivals is what excites us.
