Manchester United should break the bank on Harry Kane this summer, Teddy Sheringham has said. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the England star capable of being another Eric Cantona at Old Trafford, and while Matheus Cunha or Viktor Gyokeres are good options, Manchester United needs a leader like Kane.
Teddy added that MUFC clearly needs a striker who is willing to stick his chest out and guarantee the club crucial goals.
His words, “If it’s between [Matheus] Cunha or [Viktor] Gyokeres, just for the fact of the experience of the Premier League, I would go for Cunha. Gyokeres might have done it in the Portuguese league and he’s scoring goals and he’s confident but all he needs to do is come in like Hojlund and not get any service for four games and start getting battered and it’s ‘who have we bought?’ and then the pressure’s on him, and if he doesn’t know how to handle that, then that is a problem.
You need a leader. You need a top player to stick his chest out and go like Cantona and I did when we came to Man United and just say, I was born to play at this place. Not ‘will I make it at this place?’ There are all different characters in football, and you need someone that’s going to get out there and lead the line. That’s why you need to go and get a player like Harry Kane. That’s what United used to do, they used to go and sign the best players on the market.
Go and break the bank and get Harry Kane still. He’ll stand up there and he’ll say: ‘Give me the ball, give me some service and I’ll score some goals. You do your job, and you do your job, and we’ll have half a football team here. If you don’t, then we won’t. So, follow me and we’ll be alright’”
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.
