Loads of Manchester United fans are impressed with what they’re seeing from Donny van de Beek as he makes the most of a rare start today.
The Netherlands international looked an exciting signing for Man Utd when he joined from Ajax last summer, but he’s barely had any opportunities to start matches.

Today, Van de Beek got into Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s much-changed line up for the final league game of the season, with United currently 2-1 up against Wolves at half time.
It’s not the most important game for the Red Devils by any means, but they’ll be pleased to see their club heading towards another three points, while squad players are making the most of their chance to impress.
Van de Beek certainly seems to be showing he’s worthy of more playing time at Old Trafford, and a few fans are even hoping to see him get a chance in the Europa League final.
See below for the half time reaction to Van de Beek’s performance…
I'd happily have van de beek or matic in the midfield Wednesday night over fred #WOLMUN

My thoughts on this half:
-Van De Beek was immense
-we should play a VDB-Matic pivot in the final
-happy that Mata got a goal on what can possibly be his last game
-The youngsters have played well— Edoy (@UtdEdoy) May 23, 2021
Van de beek running the show in my opinion, hopefully it's a taste of more to come next season pic.twitter.com/6hF5A00LS2

Great player solskjaer needs to play him in the final two. A Fred and Donny or pogba and Donny would do good or even Matic again just anyone but Donny needs to play I don’t care who else.
Thought Hannibal looked the most impressive actually. VDB was immense in the 1st half but faded badly in the 2nd.
