Overview
- Manchester United beat Liverpool 2-1 at Anfield for their first victory there since January 2016, with Bryan Mbeumo scoring early, Cody Gakpo equalising, and Harry Maguire heading the winner.
- Lammens, signed from Royal Antwerp for about £18 million, has stepped in following Andre Onana’s departure.
- The Anfield match was only Lammens’ second start for United after spending September on the bench behind Altay Bayindir.
- Rio Ferdinand hailed Lammens as safe, dependable, assured, assertive and calm, while Maguire also voiced strong approval of the goalkeeper’s early displays.
- Lammens said Amorim deliberately absorbs outside scrutiny to protect the squad, a stance that has helped him settle as the manager’s position remains under discussion.
