Manchester United fans have spotted a moment involving wonderkid Chido Obi-Martin that they hope coaches will have a word with him over.
The Danish youth international made serious waves at Arsenal and caught the attention of many after scoring a staggering 32 goals in 18 matches for their Under 18 side.
He was involved in senior training at Arsenal but the striker announced he had left the club in the summer, later switching to United following his schoolboy deal expiring.
And he excited United supporters from the very off after scoring a hat-trick on his full debut for their Under 18 team against Nottingham Forest.
But fans of the club have been reminded of just how and young and raw he is in his latest appearance. On Saturday, United’s youngsters thrashed Leeds 8-0 in the Under 18 Premier League.
There were hat-tricks for James Scanlon and Amir Ibragimov but 16-year-old Obi-Martin, who came off the bench in the 60th minute, was not on target.
But the youngster was left furious for one of Ibragimov’s goals. He did all the hard work down the left flank before Ibrahimovic tapped home at the far post.
Although he got an assist, Obi-Martin appeared to feel that Ibragimov had stolen his goal and remonstrated with his teammate, who looked perplexed. Other teammates such as Jack Fletcher tried to speak to the striker and though he’s only young, fans feel as though it’s something he must improve on.
One person wrote: “Nothing deep he just thought Amir stole his goal which obviously wasn’t the case… Has plenty of time to mature and I like the hunger for goal, just felt a little unnecessary especially given the score.”
A second said: “Good on Jack Fletcher to have a word with him after throwing a strop over nothing.”
Another simply commented: “Chido doesn’t look happy.”
A fourth user noted that all was forgotten pretty quickly, revealing: “Here is a video of Chido Obi-Martin celebrating James Scanlon’s hat-trick goal. During the celebration he also celebrates with Ibragimov – who he was previously annoyed with for “stealing” his goal. All is forgiven it seems.”
Obi-Martin is seen as a huge prospect and it’s believed that United interim boss Ruud van Nistelrooy was instrumental in him signing for the 13-time Premier League winners.
