Manchester United youngster Amad has been labelled "amazing" after his latest outing for temporary employers Sunderland.
The winger is on a season-long loan arrangement at the newly-promoted Championship side. After a tough start he has now started the last two games and after scoring against Burnley last week, Saturday saw him help the Wearsiders secure a respectable point in a 1-1 draw away at Luton.
The Ivory Coast star started in an unfamiliar role as he led the Sunderland line, with Black Cats fans claiming he produced his best performance to date in the new position.

Sunderland boss Tony Mowbray, speaking post-match, said of the 20-year-old: "Amad was amazing today, amazing.
"Not just the saves he drew from their ‘keeper, but his intensity and aggression to win the ball back. I trusted him in central midfield at the end there, which says everything. Really impressive and that’s what he has to do."
