Overview
- Ruben Amorim handed summer signing Senne Lammens his first league start, replacing Altay Bayindir, and the 23-year-old kept a clean sheet at Old Trafford.
- Wayne Rooney praised Lammens for simplifying his play, taking fewer touches, and moving the ball forward quickly to suit United's attack.
- Amorim tweaked the setup to use two forwards, a change Rooney said worked early, with Benjamin Sesko scoring for the second straight Premier League game as Mason Mount also found the net.
- Troy Deeney lauded the debut, saying he had never seen a goalkeeper receive a standing ovation for claiming a cross and highlighting Lammens' presence and kicking.
- Football Insider reports the club may target an experienced No. 1 in the January window, framing Lammens as a longer-term project despite the promising outing.
