Jay McEvoy has been in a flow state this season, and itโd be very unfair if I didnโt make this post about him.
Trained with the senior team during the week, but real ones know he started this season before the season even started, with that solo goal in training which went viral all over X.
He followed that up with two against Fulham and one against Spurs in pre-season, then began the U18 season with 84 minutes against City, followed by 29 against Charlton before scoring in back-to-back games against Everton and Boro. One header, followed by his bread and butter, a lovely low-drilled finish from outside the box against Middlesbrough.
He did it again against Wolves today with another great low-drilled finish from distance to top off a dominant display in midfield. He also clipped that ball over the top to Brown to win the penalty for our opener.
At just 17, his composure on the ball is admirable. He turns out of pressure so easily, carries it forward with direct aggression, and has the range to break lines at will. Deservedly called up to Ireland U19s for the break.
Huge future ahead of this lad.
WOW! Manchester Unitedโs highly rated academy talent Jay McEvoy scored an UNBELIEVABLE SOLO GOAL in training ๐ณ
Are we sure thatโs not Lionel Messi?!? ๐

Missed in this clip but the work from McEvoy in the build-up was superb too. Turned away from pressure and brought the ball into the midfield before playing a perfectly weighted pass into the feet of Gabriel.
