Ivory Coast wonderkid Amad Diallo was one of millions who watched Manchester United outcast Mason Greenwood return to competitive football with Getafe.

Man United legend Peter Schmeichel criticise Lisandro Martinez performance against Brighton
Peter Schmeichel has criticised Lisandro Martinez's defending following the defeat against Brighton, saying the Argentine was "trying to be a hero."
“There was this feeling Manchester United had got their business done early in the transfer window and that was good, but I was concerned the players they had brought in wouldn't improve them from last season.
“I never thought for one second they would challenge Manchester City and Arsenal from the players that they brought in.

“That would have needed a Harry Kane-type signing or Declan Rice, as an example. They didn't have the money to do those types of signings.
“They're not very good at the moment. There's no hysteria. I went to the Brighton game as a fan thinking, "Could I be surprised?"
“You're always optimistic. I have never walked over that forecourt at Old Trafford and not been optimistic because that's the job of a football fan going to any ground where you support your team.
“But 72,000 Manchester United fans in that stadium, who are informed and know Brighton and know their current team, I don't think any of them were surprised at what they saw.
“Before the game, there was that feeling of, "Let's see what happens" and "take a point", those sort of comments speaking to people as you go in.”
