Alan Shearer, Micah Richards and Gary Lineker were all left impressed by Manchester United’s 4-2 win over Brighton<\/a> at the weekend.<\/p>\n The pundit trio singled out United’s <\/a>new summer signings Matheus Cunha <\/a>and Bryan Mbeumo, who were both on the scoresheet at the weekend, for their performances.<\/p>\n Speaking on the Rest is Football podcast<\/a>, Lineker said: “I mean, Man United are doing way better than we thought they were doing, but I suppose apart from Arsenal, no one’s been particularly consistent.”<\/p>\n Shearer added: “You’ve got to give big credit to Man United after their result last weekend, they had to [win] because you can imagine if they win at Liverpool<\/a> and then they won’t win at home, you know what the scenario and what everyone’s going to be saying.<\/p>\n “It was a big win for them. Mbeumo getting a couple of goals, under pressure in the last few minutes of the game, but then obviously he gets that goal and then it’s all over with.<\/p>\n “That result and the run they’re on will give everyone confidence and huge belief that his system can work. Let’s see, good result, but let’s see in the next month or so. For them going forward, you’ve got to say well done.”<\/p>\n “What Man United have be crying out for is, if you’re going to play that system, to be brave,” Richards added. “Luke Shaw was very brave in the way he stopped in and they go and get the goal.<\/p>\n “If you look at the positioning of Cunha, he was filling in in that midfield role. The system can work, I just don’t think they played it in the right way, or the players to do that, this is the first time I’ve been convinced that they know what their roles are.<\/p>\n “I agree with Alan now, the challenge now is consistency. Mbeumo, you give him time and space, he’s going to hurt you and I thought he played really well as well.”<\/p>\n “He’s really good Mbeumo,” Lineker added. “I mean he’s also, I suppose, the question mark again, someone that’s done consistently well at a club like Brentford with all due respect, is to then jump to one of the giants in world football and be able to handle it.<\/p>\n “Clearly he can. It’s not phased him in the slightest. I wouls say the same for Cunha. Obviously he’s got the experience of Altetico Madrid, which you know, is obviously one of the big boys in Spain, but Manchester United is a little different.”<\/p>\n Shearer interjected: “And they’ve gone there at the most difficult time as well, haven’t they? I mean, it’s not as if they’re going into a football club that’s flowing and winning games and all of that.<\/p>\n “They’ve gone into a really turbulent club that has had a really tough time and it’s toughest time to go in there and perform. He’s done really well.”<\/p>\n Here at The Manchester Evening News, we are dedicated to bringing you the best Manchester United<\/a> coverage and analysis.<\/p>\n Make sure you don’t miss out on the latest United news by joining our free WhatsApp group.
