Did the one thing Casemiro and Eriksen cannot, non-stop movement, ran his socks off and made sure nothing was easy for the Arsenal players.

In his defence, finding passes when you’re a man down in a game like that is a little more challenging.
Very good cameo, especially under circumstances
Shows how mobility trumps actual ability in the modern game. Much more effective than Casemiro and Eriksen
Yes, was impressed with his stamina. Didn’t even appear to be breathing hard after the long run into the box when Amad missed him with the pass.
Mobility and ability does help cas and eriksen did have it once but I agree In this situation collyer was the right man for the job looked rapid aswell in some instances.
He might have even scored if Amad had seen him running infront of Sterling
Of course. And it was still more than Zirkzee on his shame day, but it was obviously something that would have helped take the pressure off the defence. So I didnt see anything particularly impressive in this cameo as he wasnt really winning the ball like he did in preseason either. But neither was he making mistakes that cost us which is what you would sometimes get with a young player with as little experience as him playing a team like Arsenal
Some gut busting runs back and forward, played pretty soundly.
Stuck to his job and didn’t look phased one bit.
If we weren’t so shockingly lacking depth in midfield, he could have really benefited from a championship loan for a year. Getting thrown into this team every now and again prob not as good for his development as it would be playing week in and week out in the championship. But with Erikson and Casemiro being as useful as pedals on a wheelchair, he has to stay in the squad.
To be fair to Amad, it would have required a very good right (weaker) foot cross or slide rule pass that would have been very intricate. Not the easiest.
I want to see more of him, he could be good option from the bench to rest Ugarte or Kobbie
Impressive performance. Ugarte off and he was left as main defensive midfielder. Never looked out of place and looks to have great potential to fill casamiros boots.
Too much time passed since Carrick retired, could be a proper time to restore some balance of English players actually making it in MUFC.
Good on lad, hopefully more to follow from him & Kobbie.

Kind of interesting to see he gets on over Casemiro today. Has he surpassed him in the pecking order or is there some small knock for Casemiro?
I didn't really notice him, which is an absolute positive because it means that he didn't make any mistakes.
Assume he is going Saudi
Can we play him every week? Can we play him, can we play him, can we play him every week?
We needed his legs with 10 men. Say what you want about Collier on the ball currently but he’s very good physically.
We need some Brazilians in our team too.
Very impressed with what we saw from him today. Would like to see his minutes start to increase as he looks like a good cover option for Ugarte.
Apparently his running stats in training are only bettered by Bruno.
Has overtaken casemiro in pecking order.
At this point, anyone in the right age, who can step up to Premier League is great, but seriously that so called English MUFC player curse must be broken, sooner than later.
He runs and runs - which is great. Lovely cameo - and again thrown in the deep end in a difficult game.
Loved his runs in counter attacks - even if he didn’t get the ball, he will create openings for others

More to come almost for sure!
Having another midfielder with just decent ballplaying ability that can move around would be big. Looking forward to seeing more of him.
He was solid. Woled hard when he came on and didn't look out of place.
His passing will get better once he settles into first team football. Looks a better option than Casemiro.
He must have felt that after so long without a game. So great effort from him. Let's keep giving him cameos where we can.
Really impressed today in his cameo. Absolutely everywhere
He was really good. Talking about his passing percentage is completely failing to understand the game he came into and what he was asked to do.
And I'd argue you need to improve your understanding of a game of football before posting again
If Casemiro or Eriksen had come on instead of him we would have lost that game, Collyer did very well in difficult circumstances and as pretty much all our team his passing stats were loer than they normally would be
Really helped us with his workrate.
That mobility is going to make a career for him. Very few midfielders cover ground in that manner, with the pace and agility he has.
I kept saying it in preseason, this kid is everywhere. He should have made a lot more appearance this season already.
Toby impressed today. To make such a cameo in this game - when we are a man down against Arsenal away - excellent. Took his chance with both hands, I think Amorim will now start giving him minutes on a regular basis
Good cameo and I imagine we will see more of him now. Even if he isn’t good enough longer term, in the short term a midfielder with his mobility will be useful in plenty of games.
Really odd comment, nothing to say Eriksen or Casemiro would be worse or better to be fair, I think he done a job and had plenty of energy but the poster above made a goos point about his passing, unless youre happy with that?
