Very funny that the two schmucks on TV3 were having a dig about the lack of quality on Utd's bench - Martin, Pique, Rossi, Ebanks-Blake. I've a feeling those names might come back to haunt them. Martin, in particular, is a bit of a special player.

Shure Rossi will be better than Owen..

Snigger.

not saying much given the way Owen has declined

Yes indeed. 2 from 3 games for a poor Newcastle side and 16 in 25 for Real.

The mediocrity of being Englands highest scorer ever awaits.

I watched it on ITV where a similar point was being made and it's hard to argue that this was the most inexperienced United bench in years.
Rossi is a fine player but the point is he is not established yet. His day will come though.
 
Martin, Pique and Rossi are only 18, Blake is 19. I reckon Rossis and Pique have the best chances of eventaully making a breakthrough.
 
I reckon Martin actually. He excels in every position across the midfield, has pace, strength, aggression, tackling, dribbling, the lot. Really looks a player and him getting on that bench last night says something, he's a bit younger than the rest of those lads.
