17 years of age, hatrick for the reserves, scousers with a 90th min winner, breathing down our necks, on comes this @#%&!, what the £#%&! is fergie doing, he cant be good enough, giggs with a masterful touch, into macheda, turns like a £#%&!ing wizard and bang. ubelievable scenes, i think i kissed about 5 strangers in the space of ten seconds, all male btw.... a memory etched in my mind forever, and for that, i wish him all the best, where ever he goes.

Imagine being 17 scoring the winner for United and then running to your dad in the stand to celebrate. Beyond belief.

All the best kiko.

yep. just a pity that was most likely the peak of his career. wish him well, but £#%&! off now.

Thanks for that goal against Villa. Good look for the future.

Solskjaer recreating his United Reserves side of a few years back.

Will certainly be interesting to see how he gets on. Has arguably been unlucky on some of his previous loans.

confirmed now.

And Sunderland!

he'll do well for them in the championship. and ole could do a lot worse than build his team on our reserve rejects. bit unimaginative of him maybe, tho. wasn't it 10 goals from 15 appearances last season for the brummie @#%&!s for macheda?

yeah, i'm always a bit sceptical of that. keane tried a similar thing at sunderland and it didn't work out too well. i get the impression that dropping down to that level from united makes players inclined to piss around a bit.

depends on the attitude of the player and the manager, of course. jury is out on ole as a manager, imo. far worse obvs cos players will always look up to a winner. but once you've been dropped by your dream club it's easier to coast than prove them wrong.
