There's a tumblr gif of him sliding his hands through it in front of the Kop.
I'd post it but I'm trudging through wind and rain with a belly full of saturated fats.

Fun fact; prior to this story we let him go for nothing having had him on trial. Trevor Francis wanted to see him play on grass first.
Cheers, Tricky.
Two members of your communications staff once had a bet on whether Barkley would get an England cap or not.
One was staunchly against.
Don't forget we don't see good players much round these parts.
We are footballs nuclear bunker. Having Barkley playing here was like a kid flicking through a knackered old scrap book asking his father if this is what life was like top side.
Let's be fair to Moyes, he did a great job with Adnan. Could have done the same with Griezemann.
KidA will be along shortly to murder you.
So Barcelona can't do transfers this winter and next summer?
I feel like we're gonna crush the league next season as well.
With Marco Reus in the team.
Yes you really need him, so many weaknesses in the team at the moment.
He did a far better job with Adnan than van Gaal is doing.
That's the one thing I'll give Moyes, giving Adan a multitude of games (sometime consecutively).
Whether you think he played him in the wrong position is another thing.
Still think Adnan needs a loan move soon though. His confidence has dropped recently, not running at players, lapse of concentration (messing up touches).

He's actually paid for this.
It's things like this that make me believe he isn't off the drink.
Young players can't be precious about where they're playing, as long as they are.
So much of development at that age is about playing competitively; fine-tuning the intricacies of a position come much later.
Really surprised LVG hasn't given him more minutes, as I am about him selling Welbeck. Two of United's best youth products are shafted whilst the likes of Blackett and McNair are given game-time. In fairness to McNair he's been pretty impeccable since joining the first team.
Clegg was fucking right
Second Captains is very good
McNair is on the up, particularly as Evans continues to be an indecisive, spatially clueless weakling.

Indeed. I wasn't too worried about where Moyes was playing him, game time was most important.
I was never a fan of Welbeck and I don't think many United fans were but because he was from Manchester and supported United we let a lot go with him. Take that aspect away from him and he'd be gone seasons ago.
As much as I'd want Januzaj to get game time a loan move is best now. The games he has played he's not contributed like he would have last season, of course he hasn't played as many games as he did under Moyes but surely he should be able to contribute something rather than making us annoyed.
Blackett and McNair I do like. Blackett is a little risky in terms of not knowing what he's going to do with the ball but that come with his age. Whereas I think McNair hasn't got that. He acts like a first team player, which is good to see.

Blackett and McNair had to be used since our defense was plagued with injuries.
That's the difference with that and our offense, when we still have Young-
wait.

Blackett is shit.
McNair has been a great surprise.
McNair has been a great surprise.
I don't think he's too bad. I don't think he'll be at United in a the long run, mind.
Whats shocked me most about Adnan this season is often his first contribution is entirely selfish, which I just dont get, he keeps coming on, getting it on the wing and attempting to shoot when there's a cross on, baffling.
Maybe he is too invested in trying to prove a point?

Definitely. He's had plenty of crossing opportunity's but decides to take the shot.
It's fairly easy to take that mentality away from a player. Like we did with Ronaldo, however game time is an important role in making a player less selfish. As when he comes on from the bench his only aim is to impress the manager.
Again, why I think the loan move is important for him.

Dunno about the past few weeks but it was clearly what he was doing early on trying to impress.
He'll be fine. Van Gaal has selected him for some of the toughest games this season. He'll get another chance sooner or later.

Was injured for the majority of this season
One of the problems, really. He showed in the few minutes he played that his passes would do us good.
