Overview

• Manchester United beat Sunderland 2-0 at Old Trafford, with Mason Mount and Benjamin Sesko scoring as Senne Lammens kept a clean sheet on his Premier League debut.
• Wayne Rooney praised Lammens for simplifying United’s build-up and highlighted Sesko’s hold-up play, while Alan Shearer and Troy Deeney lauded the keeper’s command of his area.
• Former United goalkeeper Ben Foster reversed his initial criticism, calling Lammens’ debut “brilliant” and urging Amorim to keep him as No. 1 after the international break.
• Reporting via the i paper says club staff are impressed with Lammens’ attitude and training habits, with “maturity” cited internally and no negative feedback noted.
• Fabrizio Romano reported the win has paused sack speculation around Amorim for the next few weeks, though separate reports continue to link United with experienced targets such as Mike Maignan or Emiliano Martinez ahead of January, with a trip to Liverpool next after the break.
