Memorable debuts

[1973Blade]

Daniel Jebberson must go down as one of the greatest debuts for us. Other memorable debuts that spring to mind for me are:
Bobby Davidson's double at Wednesday in the 3-1 win
Clayton Donaldson getting a great double at Sunderland
Peter Hetherston hitting the post about eight times against Barnsley
Harry Maguire coming on and immediately doing a crunching tackle on Craig Bellamy against Cardiff.
David Frain looking world class against Sunderland.
Was Mel Rees' debut against Liverpool?

Do you ask this question every May?

Best debuts for United

I can't steal yesterday's Match Of The Day podcast 'Best Ballon D'or winner' for obvious reasons! So what was the best debut performance you've seen from a United player?

I'd forgotten that, I must do!!

In fairness, I only noticed because the website suggested it as a similar thread, and I thought “that poster looks familiar…”, not like I remembered

 

[Deadly_D'Jaffo]

Marcello vs. QPR, 1997. Think we drew 2-2 and a young Peter Crouch was playing for QPR.

 

[Swinton Blade]

I don't remember Amdrew Davies debut because of his performance just the fact he signed a few hours before starting in a game we won 3-2.

 

[Gin&Juice]

Paul Furlong vs Portsmouth

Tommy Black vs Coventry

Didn Stephen Quinn score a beaut free kick on his PL debut vs. Portsmouth or Charlton?

Tony Currie for us v Spurs (18yrs old, scored in 3-2 win at BDTBL)

I was there that Tuesday night, awesome.

 

[Latters]

Jean Calve looked shit hot on his debut and scored a screamer. It was just a pity it was all downhill from there.

 

[Houston_Blade]

The second coming of Marcus Bent.

Marlon King’s debut.

Both got to be up there.

Not a bad player that Steve Currie!

 

[dn5 shaun]

Chris Bettney, think he came on at half time away at Tranmere 1997 ish was by far the best player on pitch never played for us again

 

[Silent Blade]

Badger and Bernard Shaw v Leyton.
