Gave us more energy when he came on, looking forward to seeing more of him looked to me very promising.

Agreed. Dont think he will ever be as great as Copps but he could play his role effectively if he keeps developing at the rate he has up to now.

I’ll be honest, I thought the sub was strange at first. He looks very lightweight and thought Khemis might have been given the shout given he’s played this season already.

However, he’s stronger than he looks and after a few touches he got into the game. Never stopped running and did what he had to. Was hoping Kongolo would have squared him the ball in the late break too.

Well done that lad. Hopefully last night gave Fergie a headache with a few of the ‘fringe’ players doing well.

Copps has been helping him with his training so being his heir may not be far fetched.

Beestin looks a talent to me on the few brief outings we've seen from him. Hopefully he can push to feature more often from the bench now he's fit.

Poor Fletcher was ready to come on with Beestin for a good 20 minutes as well, but the Donohue red card totally changed the plan and the teenager never got on in the end.
