He was there to make things happen, and ended up being a soft luxury player with some touches here and there. Very dissapointing.
For those who have watched enough of him at Dortmund, was he always this physically weak ?
Jury still out for me

I'm starting to get a little worried, tbh
He'll take a while to get used to us and us to him. He's a class act, it's just that so far we haven't quite been able to get him going in the same way he did at Dortmund. That said, tonight he looked a bit lost. When he had the ball he was okay, when he didn't he seemed to struggle.
He obviously has a brilliant football brain but to be honest looked lightweight and at times off the pace this evening.
We certainly didn't miss him when he came off.
He looked so dangerous and quick at Dortmund always darting here and darting there, he looks nothing like that player.

Found himself in some great positions first 20 minutes. He just faded after that, and looked lightweight. Moving Welbeck in centre was a game changer.
Neither Valencia or Giggs spruced the place up. Didn't change much except their legs weren't tired, which was the point of all the subs tonight.
Not sure if he has found his position at United, and he may never.
He played behind Lewindowski at Dortmund. Not sure if he will get the opportunity with us.
Cazorla, Silva and the like would of looked equally useless playing in that role tonight.
Strange reaction, I thought he was quite good tonight!
He played more advanced than I was expecting. In the first half he was often further forward than RvP, and got behind the Madrid defence on a couple occasions, and was generally quite tidy on the ball.
Oh i like Kagawa and he should improve but c'mon now.
