"[Jean-Philippe] Mateta, absolutely. The centre-forward is absolutely brilliant and why they didn't buy him, I don't know, especially when the big strikers are coming back [into fashion]. You look at the size of the lad that Newcastle signed [Nick Woltemade], you look at the size of the centre-forwards again. Mateta is winning in a team and winning the FA Cup and getting to Europe and it took him more than a year to do it. There aren't many centre-forwards as good as he is."
"Languishing in 14th place and having won just two Premier League games so far this season, it is safe to say the pressure is mounting on 40-year-old boss Amorim. With over 200 million spent over the summer on Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Sesko, amongst others, the Red Devils boss will be feeling the heat, and one former England boss believes signing the latter of the three big names was a poor decision."
Benjamin Sesko has scored one goal for Manchester United and has faced criticism for a limited impact at Old Trafford. Manchester United sit 14th in the Premier League with only two wins so far this season. The club spent over 200 million during the summer on signings including Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Sesko. Pressure is increasing on 40-year-old manager Ruben Amorim. A former England manager praised Jean-Philippe Mateta’s physical presence, FA Cup success and European qualification role, and argued Mateta would have been a superior signing to Sesko.
