Uruguayan starlet Facundo Pellistri has had to make do with a place in Man United’s U23 squad since his arrival, but you can see that’s he’s too good for this level.
He scored a nice goal tonight against Southampton U23s as he breaks the offside trap and sends the keeper the wrong way as he tucks the ball inside the near post:

The positive thing here is that he doesn’t look flustered at all and you know the ball is ending up in the net as soon as he breaks through, so it would be interesting to see when Solskjaer feels he’s ready for a chance in the first team.
