“I’ve said to Adnan, you need to stop blaming everyone else for what’s gone wrong," said Moyes.
“This loan’s a little bit of a risk. I’ve told Adnan to look at himself and realise that it’s down to him to change it; it can’t always be the manager’s fault or the coach’s fault that he hasn’t progressed.
Adnan’s got to ask has he prepared right, has he got himself in the best condition, has he trained well enough? And, when he’s got his opportunity, has he played well enough? In a lot of cases the answer has to be ‘no’."

Fair play to the guy, that's some real good authority on the situation. Adnan needs a massive kick up the backside and hopefully he knuckles down and concentrates on his football for once.
Not gonna give up on the lad yet, and I'm pleased Jose/the club hasn't either. Still think he has a future at United if he can get back to that level from two years ago.
Strong words from Moyes

Januzaj looks to me like one of those players - and you see a few - with lots of skill but a sleight physique. For that kind of player to succeed they have to be very strong and he wasn't. Far too easy to knock off the ball and too easy to bully out of the game. I don't think he has what it takes.

To be fair he's still had as many good games in the PL as Sterling.

No he doesn't.

He may be better suited to the Spanish and German league if we are going by physique.
But physique can be worked on. Getting built up and not losing other aspects are the main thing though.

Was brilliant in his first season under Moyes, just hope he gets games and gives his all.

To think LVG got it in the neck over januzai from a lot 1 or 2 posters here. Interesting these same posters are now giving it to the player.
Anyway getting back to januzai hopefully he grows up and cops on to himself. He is at a major crossroads in his career.

Don't see that as an issue, in his first season he was skipping past players with ease and often stayed on his feet when fouled.
He's just got too big for his boots

Januzaj on the bench today for Moyes already.

I'm sure with a run of games he can offer more than some of the players on the pitch today.
