Manchester United have been urged to sign a \u2018world class\u2019 upgrade on a player they brought to the club just a few months ago in what would be a harsh and ruthless decision.<\/p>\n
Man Utd<\/a> invested heavily in new recruits over the summer, with the bulk of that outlay coming in the final third. The additions of Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Sesko hoovered up the headlines, but no less important was the arrival of Senne Lammens.<\/p>\n The Belgian cost \u00a318.1m when plucked from Royal Antwerp. And after initially taking a backseat to Altay Bayindir, he\u2019s started United\u2019s last two matches in the Premier League \u2013 both of which they\u2019ve won.<\/p>\n Yet according to former Premier League striker, Emile Heskey, Man Utd would do well to show a ruthless streak and sign a \u2018world class\u2019 upgrade on Lammens.<\/p>\n In the mind of the former England international, Man Utd should have shown more ambition by moving for a player the calibre of Gianluigi Donnarumma<\/a>, just as near neighbours Manchester City<\/a> did.<\/p>\n \u201cI still believe Manchester United need to sign a goalkeeper in January, despite\u00a0Senne Lammens\u2019 promising start,\u201d declared Heskey (as quoted by Football365<\/a>).<\/p>\n \u201cThey are one of the biggest clubs in the world, so they need to attract the best talent in every position.<\/p>\n \u201cJust look at Man City \u2013 they signed Gianluigi Donnarumma in the summer, and he won the Champions League last season!<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s a great example of a club recruiting one of the best players in the world in that position.<\/p>\n \u201cMan United need to regain that status and bring in a world class goalkeeper that can stay at the club for many years to come and reinforce the spine of the team.<\/p>\n \u201cThat should be the focus for Ruben Amorim over the next few months.\u201d<\/p>\n HAVE YOU SEEN\u00a0\ud83d\udea8\u00a0Man Utd told which one of their players can win the Ballon d\u2019Or<\/a><\/p>\n Senne Lammens does not need replacing<\/p>\n It\u2019s admittedly a small sample size, but the Belgian has looked something of a steal if his first two outings against Sunderland and Liverpool are anything to go by.<\/p>\n The goalkeeping position has been a sore spot for Man Utd for a number of years. Yet last time out against Liverpool Lammens belied his relative lack of inexperience and stood up tall against the champions.<\/p>\n Lammens was not overawed by the occasion and the Anfield atmosphere. And while the goalkeeper was unable to record a second successive clean sheet, he did make five saves against Liverpool and\u00a0prevented 1.33 goals based on the xG of shots he faced.<\/p>\n The pick of the saves came in the first half when he stopped Alexander Isak from scoring his first Premier League goal for Liverpool by saving his shot with his foot.<\/p>\n Harry Maguire, Leny Yoro and Diogo Dalot all embraced the young Belgian at the full-time whistle, and he also received a big hug from\u00a0former United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel as he left the pitch.<\/p>\n \u201cI must say I am heavily impressed by Senne Lammens,\u201d Maguire said. \u201cI don\u2019t want to get carried away because he is playing in the position with the most pressure, it\u2019s the most difficult position at Manchester United. But he\u2019s got everything. Great personality.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHe was really important,\u201d Amorim added. \u201cSometimes it is a little bit of luck because they had two shots on the post.<\/p>\n \u201cThat can change the narrative, the way you see the team, the goalkeeper or whatever. So we have to understand that, but he showed a lot of character, a lot of quality and we win also because of Lammens.\u201d<\/p>\n Latest Man Utd news \u2013 Signing DONE \/ Zirkzee going \/ Crazy Chelsea raid<\/p>\n In other news, Man Utd have completed a signing that shows\u00a0Sir Jim Ratcliffe is staying true to his word<\/a>.<\/p>\n Elsewhere, Amorim has reportedly decided Joshua Zirkzee is NOT in his long-term plans.
