Manchester United manager commented on comparisons with the legend
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim jokingly reacted to comparisons of his goalkeeper Senne Lammens with the legendary Peter Schmeichel. Lammens, who recently made his debut for the team, managed to keep a clean sheet during the 2-0 victory against Sunderland two weeks ago. After that, United fans sang him an encouraging song:“Are you Schmeichel in disguise?”United acquired 23-year-old Lammens for 18.2 million pounds.This situation is a testament to how quickly the young goalkeeper has become popular among the team's fans. Celebrating his debut with a song from the fans can be interpreted as a sign of trust and hopes for his future success at the club. Now it remains to be seen whether Lammens can live up to these expectations and perform in high-level matches.
