EPL: Amorim should use Mbeumo as striker over Sesko — Owen
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Former Manchester United midfielder, Owen Hargreaves has urged manager, Ruben Amorim to use Bryan Mbeumo as a striker over Benjamin Sesko.

The Englishman also wants Amorim to change captain Bruno Fernandes’ position in his squad to reignite the Portugal international’s attacking instincts.

He made the statement ahead of Man United’s Premier League tie with Sunderland on Saturday.

“They decided to get goals and sign proven Premier League players in Cunha and Mbeumo, which I like,” Hargreaves told TNT Sports.

“But now Bruno has to play deeper to get on the ball and create. He is not playing his natural position; he is playing deeper.

“He is playing as a box-to-box midfielder. Bruno is one of the best creators in the division. So you have got to play him in his natural position.

“But because they play two 10s, you could argue Man Utd’s two best players last season were Amad and Bruno.

“I would love to see Bruno play as a 10, maybe with Mbeumo as a No. 9.”
