    Early days on that one. All he needs is an injury or a suspension to get him in the team and take his chance.

    Not necessarily the playing time that is the problem, it's the system. They don't play with wingers.

    Good players can play anywhere, it's up to Clarke to adapt.

    Makes it harder for him like...

    Well they have to get back to winning ways on Tuesday 0-0 half time would be best and then they would come out and have ago i hope, we won't get back top again now though, this new assistant coach must be the cause of it.

    I watched him closely around a year ago in a CL game and he was absolutely superb. Really thought he’d kick on

    I think he’s a good player. Had a couple of injuries which has impacted him and also confidence generally with utd is shocking at the minute!
    Also only 21 so has plenty of time to get back to where he was

    He looks lost whenever he gets the ball, confidence must be shot to bits.. fernandes put one over the top for him to run onto as last man and 10 seconds later the ball was back in Uniteds half without an Ipswich player touching it. Seems to go away from the goal rather than toward it

    Was this the one down the right side? Looked like he was just waiting for the linesman to flag, no confidence in his speed or ability at all.

    Aye there was the one down the right then a few minutes later another over the top which he chased to the byline and cut back then decided to try and float one back into the area for Fernandes which he never had a chance of winning in the air. That transfer alone is just typical of united £60-70m marquee transfer yet isn’t even a given starter. Probably the most expensive striker in the league based on transfer fee alone? Think Haaland and Isak were slightly less

    Should’ve kicked him in the head when he was rolling about to make the ban worthwhile

    That was seriously embarrassing - getting pushed in the chest and go down holding your face! It's a wonder it didn't kick off again afterwards as he went around laughing and joking about it

    They must be absolutely gutted then with an Isak goal disallowed and then West Ham scoring

    Opposition fans should hold their faces and make crying noises every time he gets the ball to let him know everyone saw how pathetic a cheat he was
