Manchester United star Gary Neville was a guest on the Sky Sports program and talked about Manchester United's recent hot state, the performance of Mbemo, Cunha, Sheshko and other topics.
Talking about the performance of Mbemo and Cunha
When asked what else he needs to see to be convinced of Manchester United, Neville pointed to the encouraging form of Mbemo and Cunha.
"I think it's the stability. This team and this club haven't been truly trustworthy for a long time. "
"The idea of winning two or three games doesn't immediately remove that feeling of distrust. You can't rebuild trust instantly. Trust is still not fully restored, but I think there are some positive changes happening there. "
"In terms of Mbemo and Cunha. In other words, these signings are less risky because they have all played in the Premier League before and they have the desire to prove themselves at a higher level. "
"There are a lot of things about these signings that make you feel more reassured. When I look at Manchester United now, Mbemo looks like he belongs here, he looks hungry, he looks like he wants to score goals. "
"In the first four or five games, maybe. During the game, although they were able to get into the offensive position they wanted, they may not have seized the opportunity. The situation did not go well for them and Cunha. "
"But Manchester United now has a foundation to rely on. These two players are going to win a lot of games for this club. "
"If you can keep the back five compact and have some good, passable defensive players between them, then the back five can stay solid and let the midfielder in front of them, and those two forwards, do their job. "
"I think this could be a viable option for Manchester United to finish decently this season and finish in the top six. "
Questions about Sheshko's performance
The third member of Manchester United's attacking trident has yet to have such a big impact. Sheshko returned to the starting lineup after coming off the bench in the victory against Liverpool, but failed to score.
"There are still questions about Sheshko, " Neville said. "He's obviously a riskier signing and more of an unknown quantity. He doesn't look like he's fully adapted yet. "
"It's not just about scoring goals. It's about how integrated it is in the actual fit, and you see that fit in other people. You see B Fee and Mount, although Mount did not play today, you can see that these two people are very successful in connecting with Mbeumo and Cunha. You haven't fully seen Sheshko become part of that coordination. He hasn't kept up with them in rhythm. This is a fast transfer speed. He needs to improve his game. "
"This can only come with time, and obviously he's still quite young. But he does need to keep up as this is still an important signing and he is worth £80m. If they can form a front three, it will obviously have a huge impact. But at the moment it looks to me like a double striker plus another player in front taking up space. "
"This is an important task in the coming weeks. "
