MyNani I think you might be talking about the player I just mentioned.
Yes, that was him. Josh Harrop.
Don't want to hype him up - he's a name to look out for to be a future academy regular! Far too young to hype up, but I've heard good things. Would like to see him myself to get a feel for him as a player
He was amazing, the ball stuck to his foot like glue, he's tweeted me a couple times which I've favourited so in a few years time when he becomes a star I'm going to look like a genius I really really do think he'll become a Manchester United player he was that impressive. I'm a bit disappointed he hasn't had more appearances but hopefully he'll be promoted to the academy next year.
Oh yeah Gorre is a really good player too. We just seem to have an abundance of talent.
I've got the game on dvd, I can post it online and you can see him for yourself because unfortunately there's no highlights of him online. I think he's worth the hype though, if I'm wrong I'm wrong but he's the player.I'm most excited about.
I would definitely like to see him play, but I'll reserve any predictions for a few years. I believed Ravel Morrison would go on to become a United great - he certainly had the technical ability and on the pitch intelligence to make it, but he's as good an example as any to show that talent alone is not enough.
I don't know anything of Harrop except what I read in that match report and what you've just said, but I am certainly intrigued by what has been said
The only thing I've been told about Harrop is that he's a box to box midfielder.
I'm also following him on twitter.

Interesting. That may well change, though - he will certainly be tried in different positions as a test or to help him learn and may find one more suited to him (if need be).
No he's definitely an attacking player, I wouldn't call him a box to box player. He was literally walking past 3 or 4 players to get into the opposition box. He's a goodpasser but dribbling seemed to be his best asset, it seemed impossible to take the ball off him. But I have only seen twenty mins of him so I don't want to get too excited but he doesn't strike me as a tackling midfielder. He was someone you'd want to see playing the Silva role, he likes to run at defence and knows when to release the killer pass.
I'm only going by what I've been told as I've not seen anything of the lad.
I'll put the last 20 minutes of the match on YouTube if I figure how and you can see for yourself.
