Lammens Has Been A Difference Maker For MUFC – Rio Ferdinand

Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has hailed Senne Lammens for the transformative impact he has made since joining the club. He recently tipped the young goalkeeper to hold the number-one spot for the next decade, and fans have been reacting.

Highlighting the composure and maturity the Belgian has introduced to the backline during his maiden season, Ferdinand stated that Lammens‘ temperament is his greatest asset for the long term.

Rio added that the calmness Senne displays consistently is why he expects him to keep getting better.

His words, “The calmness that he’s brought, the amount of saves that he’s made and the difference-making that he’s made with this team, I don’t think you can put a number on that. He’s been superb and he’s young. That’s what I love about him, he’s young, he’s still going to be getting more experiences and he’s only going to get better from now on.

I don’t think it matters how good or bad he plays, I think he’ll be the same level – very level-headed and he won’t get out of his pram too much about anything. I think he’s one for the next 10 years at Manchester United, he’s going to be the No.1. He’s someone again, got a definite great foundation to start building from what he’s shown this season.”

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.
