Semenyo Will Get MUFC Fans Off Their Seats – Yorke

Antoine Semenyo could become another Cristiano Ronaldo or David Beckham at Manchester United, Dwight Yorke has said. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, MUFC must pip Premier League rivals to a much sought-after signature because the Ghanaian international is currently one of the best players in the EPL.

Yorke added that the African forward is exactly the kind of signing that would excite Manchester United supporters.

His words, “Antoine Semenyo is probably one of the best players, if not the best player, in the Premier League right now in terms of what he’s doing, and taking into consideration the team that he’s actually playing for.

If he was to go and play with better teams, better players, his potential would be huge. There is a reason why all the top teams are interested, because of his consistency and what he’s been doing.

For Manchester United, he would get fans off their seats, I think he’s an exceptional player. Is he going to fit in there? What is he going to bring to the United team? I think he could take the ball up the pitch, to relieve the defenders.

I think it would be a significant move from the manager’s standpoint. Over the years when United have always played, they have players who take the ball up high up the pitch, which relieves the defenders, Semenyo can do that.

It’s been key to United’s success over the years. Andrei Kanchelskis, to Ryan Giggs, to David Beckham, to Cristiano Ronaldo, to Antonio Valencia, those type of players always get the ball, take it really high and deep into the opposition half. That’s what he would bring as well as goals and his creativity. I think he’ll be an exceptional player, but not as a wing-back.

Where Ruben Amorim wants him to play will have a big impact on his decision. If I was him. I’m not going to be playing as a wing-back, taking away my ability to create. I would suggest an initial conversation, but he’s certainly a player that not just United, but City and everybody else would love to have in their team at this present time.

Bruno Fernandes has certainly been the talisman of the football club for the past five years. Marcus Rashford, in his best season, scored 30-plus goals, but Bruno has always been a significant player.

United have always had really good attacking players and Bruno has fit that without a doubt. He’s been incredible for the football team over the past five years or so. He was resilient in that he didn’t want to go to Saudi, I think that it’s good that the manager backed him at that moment. It’s turned out to be the right decision from a Manchester United standpoint.

I wonder if Bruno’s mindset is more positive now, since they added Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha to the team, which gives them a little bit more attacking force. Are they a far better team than what they were? They’ve slightly improved, with [Benjamin] Sesko as well. I think the front attacking players have always been good. It’s just the middle to back is the one that I think they can still improve on. Would they close the gap? Would they win anything with Ruben Amorim going into the next campaign? I still think there is work to do.

I would like to think that Bruno will look at the whole season come the end of the year. I think he will remain there, but if United fall off and fail to qualify for the Champions League, I think that will change the whole dimension of what he’s thinking might be. At the end of the season, Bruno has to find what is best for him at the end of the day and he has to meet that goal.”

WOW.

Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.

Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.

Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.

The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992 the left and the right, but he’s not got any sense of danger yet, and empties the midfield area too readily.
