not sure if he's a Ja member

-----------------------------------------------

Think he is, on the quiet. Goes under the name of 'IAmMe', just to throw people off his scent.

It's getting to the stage all the promising youngsters of the early part of this decade are approaching mid to late 20's?

Remember Miroslav Stoch who we all thought looked promising and wanted Ancelotti to promote? He turns 30 next year `

Maybe he just has less to do, maybe he's a bit more anxious? Either way, he's be great for us which is all that matters.

His mistakes are more forgiven at United as he has far more to do and time to make up for them. With Spain, as he does less, any mistake is magnified.

I think it's fair to say he's our only consistent world-class performer at the moment.

Happy Birthday el numero uno!

I love your passion for our club - especially when we score.

A great professional, and not a bad keeper.

Lol no I just ask the shopkeeper for ID. Then if they fail to produce then I just say sorry you have to look over 25 to sell alcohol then take the bottle back off them and put it back on the shelf. Rules are rules.

Aye, Freddy Adu turns 30 next year too, he can still make it! Jonny Evans is 30 now, Macheda is 27, Welbeck turn 28 later this month

It doesn't seem too long ago they were "ones to watch."

He will go down as an all time great from this generation of United/England players. With 17 appearances from the bench for United and 4 friendly appearances for England.

Messia and Pique are 31, as are most of the Barca youth players who played under Pep back in 2009, damn time flies

naturalise him as English

I don't want this no hoper playing for spain again

Can't help but feel he's wasting his career at United and I'm a diehard United fan.

We clearly aren't going to win any major honours anytime soon and for whatever reason, Spanish players that play in England never get the recognition they deserve in Spain (or Europe).

If he played for one of the big 2 in Spain, he would've been in every FIFA World XI team for the past 4/5 years, yet he's barely been nominated playing for us.
