Manchester United fans on X (formerly Twitter) are now impressed with Altay Bayindir and are calling for the Turkish goalkeeper and Andre Onana to be replaced this summer. They believe that the goalkeepers are not good enough to be at the club as they make too many mistakes.

Bruno Fernandes scored an injury-time penalty to help Manchester United get their first win of the season against Burnley on Saturday, August 30. The Red Devils took the lead through an own goal in the first half, but were pulled back level with Lyle Foster scoring 10 minutes after the break.

Ruben Amorim's side managed to bounce back quickly and retake the lead within two minutes, thanks to Bryan Mbeumo scoring his first Premier League goal for his new side. However, Jaidon Anthony made it 2-2 in the 66th minute, and the game looked set to end in a draw before Fernandes' penalty in injury time.

Manchester United's three points sees them move to ninth in the Premier League table, just three behind leaders Chelsea. They lost the opening match of the season 1-0 to Arsenal before drawing 1-1 at Fulham last weekend.

Manchester United need new goalkeeper, admitted former player

Former Manchester United goalkeeper Ben Foster spoke on his The Cycling GK YouTube channel earlier this month and claimed that Andre Onana and Altay Bayındır were not good enough for the club. He added that Senne Lammens was also not the answer and said:

"They’ve been linked with a £25m move for the Royal Antwerp goalie Lammens. I watched a little highlights reel of him on YouTube. He looks okay, I still don’t think it’s the answer."

He believes that the club should be looking to sign Emiliano Martinez or Gianluigi Donnarumma and said:

"If you’re Man United, then you need to be signing a Donnarumma or a Martinez because that’s the difference. There’s a difference in level. He [Lammens] looks like he’s a decent young goalkeeper, but I just think to go and pluck someone from Royal Antwerp and expect them to be able to a world-class goalkeeper in the Premier League for Man United, it’s a miracle if you get it."

Manchester United are in talks with Royal Antwerp for Senne Lammens this month. They are expected to seal the signing before the deadline on Monday.
