I personally don't see Lammens as an issue. But I don't rate Martinez personally. He can make big saves but he has a lot of high profile errors too. The issue in the team is the defence is not agile enough. We will concede a ridiculous amount of goals this season. Already 6 goals in 3 games is terrible.
Emiliano Martínez would have been a great signing for Manchester United last season, and I genuinely think he could have had a similar impact to what Edwin van der Sar had.

United don’t just need a goalkeeper who can make saves ; they need a goalkeeper with personality, leadership, mentality and the ability to perform when the pressure is highest (same traits our GKs legend had VDS and PS). Martínez has all of that.

Van der Sar came to United with experience and immediately brought calmness, authority and a winning mentality to the team. Martínez has that same presence. He’s not perfect, but when the biggest moments arrive, he has repeatedly shown that he can deliver.

The World Cup, penalty shootouts, crucial saves, big-game performances, this is a goalkeeper who thrives under pressure.

Imagine Martínez behind a settled United defence commanding the box and giving the players in front of him that extra confidence.

For me, he would have been a very Van der Sar-type signing: an experienced goalkeeper arriving at the right stage of his career to give the team personality, belief and a genuine chance to compete for trophies.

All these Martinez epistles like we all can't see how Chelsea are still conceeding with him. No goalkeeper can outsave a poor defence.

Cool headed and composed VDS to Martinez who is more concerned with dark arts and shithousery?

So bottom line is that we need the defence fixed to a certain degree before Lammens becomes a crucial topic. He might have flaws but overall he has been more than decent, Martinez isn't overly superior as we have seen with the current Chelsea team

Great defence + Mid Keeper >>>>>> Mid Defence + Great Keeper

Arsenal would probably break some records on their way to retaining the PL title this season.

Hopefully, we would be ready to match them next season.

I doubt they can break the record points or the record goals.

They are hot favourites to win the league easily though.

To do it while playing football basically at semi-pro level is very commendable.

I feel they might break some defensive records and probably some points gap ish.

They seem to be head and shoulders above all their supposed rivals who appear considerably weaker for various reasons.

Wouldnt be suprised if they wrap it up as early as March.

Lets see how it pans out - lots of games to be played
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by engrelvis(m): 9:47am On Sep 13
I understand alot of fans want Yoro to marshal that central defence after that brilliant performance against Sabah.Am really happy with the improvement but Man city is not Sabah.They have more dangerous and tricky attackers.By all means necessary Mcquire, Mazroui Martinez should be in that defence.Rashford should start.let hope today favor us.

I think he came in as a sub in that game.

Tbh, i really cant blame Carrick for this false 9 matter. Like you pointed out in one of your earlier posts, Sesko isn't playing like a starting #9.

Some of the issues of last season still dey follow us presently.

Perhaps the front 3 should rotate positions interchangeably - Carrick was there when CR7, Tevez and Rooney were unpredictable as marauding fowards
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by CrystalTiger(m): 3:41pm On Sep 13
People were screaming to the high heavens for these idiots to sign a LB..Now we're here..No international competition to look forward to, and bang Shaw's injured..

How Shaw has managed to pull the same scam for years here still astonishes me..What then is the benefit of the supposed football brains that we have ffs?
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by chrisley024(m): 3:48pm On Sep 13
Shaw getting injured isn't news and why I don't get the reason a LB wasn't signed. Btw, I hope they're keeping Amass

The boys should play with same confidence they did the last time, talent without a strong mentality will take a footballer no where...
