đš Gary Lineker: âMan Utd & Amorim Desperately Need Scott McTominay Back!â
Ex-Red Devil Thrives in Napoli as Unitedâs Midfield Crisis Worsens
In a searing postmortem of Manchester Unitedâs dismal season, Gary Lineker has fired shots at the clubâs transfer decisionsâinsisting Ruben Amorim’s side urgently needs the return of Scott McTominay, a player Erik ten Hag sold last summer.
Speaking on The Rest is Football, Lineker didnât hold back:
> âMcTominay scored a beauty for Napoli. Itâs remarkable how well some of the [former] United players are doing.â
âHeâs exactly the player Amorim needs. He fits the system perfectly.â
The Numbers Donât Lie:
10 goals in 28 games for Napoli
Crucial contributor in their Serie A title push
Playing under Antonio Conte, McTominay has transformed into a dominant box-crasher
Meanwhile, United have endured their worst home record since 1961, with injuries and tactical mismatches plaguing Amorimâs transition. The midfield has lacked punch and presenceâsomething McTominay is delivering weekly in Italy.
Lineker believes United sold the wrong man:
> âThey let go of McTominay, Wan-Bissaka, and Varane. Now theyâre stuck with a broken squad.â
As Napoli chase glory, McTominay is thriving. Back in Manchester, fans are left wondering how the club let go of a player now lighting up Serie A. The question looms large:
Did Manchester United give up
on Scott McTominay too soon?
