Sick to death of having to explain Januzaj's brilliance to the unenlightened tbh, but I wouldn't be surprised if the people writing him off are same people that wrote Ronaldo off as a show pony in his first two seasons.

It's easy to see the potential in Januzaj. His touch, balance, speed in change of direction and dribbling ability are superb. Moyes gets slated, but he's spot on when he talks of Januzaj's ability to beat a man from a standing start by going left or right.

Van Gaal obviously doesn't want to rush him. Raheem Sterling seems to have gone off the boil from being overplayed, and there was concern that Moyes would do the same with Januzaj last season. His progress and development will be handled carefully, both by a manager who has a superb track-record in blooding youth players, and an assistant who is the perfect mentor for a young Manchester United youth player.
