Played well today, second half especially. He's so much better when he plays direct, like all of our wingers, which is why it's baffling when Maresca has us passing the ball around the box 50 times per attack like a bunch of twats.

Never been his biggest fan, but he was excellent against Wolves.

Two assists, and that pace and transition for the third goal to Neto was amazing.

He was good yesterday against Wolves but we need to improve the left wing if we want to go to the top.

only 21 years of age. Star boy

Should be said, it was a good performance against Wolves who were absolutely pants.

Made me 6 quid and bagged me points in Fantasy footy...

He's even trying to do something about his hair.

The good chap will win my full support if he carries on like this.

Well done to him.

He just comes across like a player who is always on the line and pushing. Lets hope he carries on

Problem is he also had good games for Man Utd and then would be bang average for weeks afterwards.

Let’s hope he can keep it up.

But then you can ask which United attackers has thrived in their last few seasons. In fact, I would say he was probably their most productive in the past 2 seasons. Needed a different environment maybe. He is inconsistent yes and I am sure he will have a lot up and down performances. First half he was poor but second half really improved. I like that he does not hide and always is willing to try and come up with something. Whereas Sancho was frustrating. Never had enough belief in himself, whilst Garnacho has that extra confidence about him.

Yep, he is a confident boy.

Which hopefully he can use to his advantage as some players come to Chelsea and shrink.

Sancho was weird, I thought it had the potential to be a good deal for us but he played way too safe to be an effective winger.

I think the key to getting anything out of Garnacho is upping his work rate off the ball but letting him be direct with it.

Listen guys, we have Two players that occasionally get to train and play with the best ever, they surely pick up the sagest of tips and tricks from the master,!!

Pedro Neto and…? Essugo hasn’t made a full Portugal cap and I doubt CR7 trains with the U21’s.

Goalkeeper, CB and proper striker are all far more of concern than another winger….

Forget he is only 21. He’s settling now - is that 2 goals and 2 assists in last 4 games. Hes got a wasteful pass in him, but like that he keeps going.

Should be starting, along with Estevao on right.

I’d say that goalkeeper has improved and is as much a concern as LW. It is a concern if we want to challenge for titles.

Everyone always bashes the SD’s (quite rightly in most cases) but this is such a great piece of business.

A young, PL proven winger with immense potential, for what, in the current inflation era market, is essentially a free transfer and one that directly weakens one of our direct rivals for Conference League football next season.

Garnacho and Estêvão having near-identical profiles on that matrix makes me pretty sceptical that it's telling us anything useful.

Madueke 😭

Chart is a fail as I have no idea who half those wingers are LOL, and I'm sure I'm not alone in that ...

Why not use their actual names rather than a mug shot ?

Somehow he managed to be even worse today than he was against Everton. This is why United got fed up with him. Decision making, touch and finishing were awful, really really bad. With the amount of space he had and the amount of the ball he was seeing, it's criminal to not get a single thing right.

The only thing saving him is his age, he is only 21, but this is why we should have only signed one of Garnacho or Gittens. Garnacho is just not reliable yet, he may never be, so go get somebody that is first. This isn't how this dumb model of ours works though. We will always be holding ourselves back because we keep signing these youngsters who need time to grow up.

Whilst also paying Sterling 300 grand a week to not play. Now I'm no Sterling fan, far from it, but one thing the guy could do, in fact the only thing the guy could do, is arrive at the back post to finish. Yes he is selfish and frustratingly dog sh*t in most other aspects but hell, and I can't believe I'm typing this, Sterling probably wins the game today with the chances that came Garnacho's way. Even George probably does better tbh.

I thought he was good, just really frustrating when it came to his shooting. Had he scored 1 or 2 from his chances I'm sure people would look at his performance differently.

Tracked back very well and helped Cucu defensively, his movement off the ball to create the chances is very good and I like how direct he is when he does get the ball. He is still young, decision making isn't going to be the greatest at this point in time but you can see the clear potential there.

I have no issues with a young winger trying to make things happen and making mistakes along the way, it's going to happen and its way better than the alternative.

Same needs to work on his finishing

Not like Man Utd has been having some amazing decision-making in the last, 10 years or more?

Garnacho isn't good enough but he has the right attitude about his role and he has the potential, there is no other way around this one. Just as Madueke was supposed to get his minutes in order to grow into a great player, Garnacho must keep playing. Time is the one thing we have since it is clear as day that we don't have a squad good enough to win titles, just yet.

Garnacho OR Gittens. The issue is we bought both for like 60m more than they were worth.
