WBA 1 - 2 MU. De Gea Nightmare Start as Youngsters Shine

Great start: Wayne Rooney fires United into an early lead at The Hawthorns
Rooney: Season opener!

Blunder: De GeaHowler: De Gea left clutching fresh air as Shane Long's (not pictured) shot bobbles into the netOoooh, Young man: United's new boy celebrates his deflected winner

Season took off with line-up of youngsters... Cleverley, Welbeck, Young and De Gea started the match against WBA. The oldies Giggs, Park, Berba... were all left on the bench. It is the sign of new generation taking over at United.

They all did well, Cleverley was exciting to watch. Young got the match winner, Welbeck is strong and quick. Jones came in to take over superbly from Rio. Evans for Vidic. The two old center defenders are just too injury prone now.

The big question mark continues to fall on the young Spanish goalkeeper - De Gea let me yet another goal that looks very routine to save.

Fergie has to sort that out. Else we are in for a tough goals-leaking season.

3 points away from home. That is a good start.
