However, before the goal, Greenwood was responsible for a mesmeric piece of skill which left Noble completely stranded at Old Trafford.

After plucking a long ball out of the sky, the £35,000-a-week wonderkid performed a wonderful roulette turn on the West Ham No.16.

The skill was executed to perfection, as Greenwood breezed past the 33-year-old and continued his run down the right flank.

Speaking on his Manchester United teammate James Garner’s Call of Duty Twitch stream, the 19-year-old can be heard talking about what he did to Noble.

The Red Devils No.11 said: “I sent him back to 1876. Yeah bro he got spun. Before the game I was watching Berbatov clips.”

Football London have also covered the news, in which they verify the striker’s comments.

Let’s see what they’ve been saying about the forward’s comments…
