some brilliant moments, some great goals, but mostly very frustrating, repeatedly leaving the ball behind or running it out of play. he didn't sort that out last season. he has to sort it this time.
want him to stay but his place in the squad is not safe.

Harsh to sum up his first season as "mostly frustrating" imo. To score 17 goals in a debut season while mostly playing with Rooney, Lingard and Memphis is pretty good going. Alongside Blind he was our best outfield player. The one shining light at times pre Rashford.
He also ended the season very well. The last month couple of months he and a Rashford really did give hope that they were the future. Obviously his attitude has to be right, but I'd like to think getting both to realise their potential is a priority for the manager, rather than spending.
