Lee Sharpe Advises Man U to Sign Mateta to Strengthen Attack with Hojlund
Former England winger Lee Sharpe has suggested that Manchester United should sign Crystal Palace’s Jean-Philippe Mateta to strengthen their attack alongside Rasmus Hojlund.
Sharpe believes Mateta’s experience and playing style would complement Hojlund and improve United’s frontline. He also thinks Hojlund could learn from the 27-year-old by playing alongside him.
“Mateta would be a great signing for Manchester United. He’d give Hojlund some relief and be someone he can learn from,” Sharpe said. “He’s strong, tough for defenders to handle, and would be a positive addition.”
Sharpe added that Mateta’s ability to hold the ball and involve teammates in play would suit Ruben Amorim’s style of football.
United have struggled in attack this season, sitting 15th in the Premier League with 34 points from 28 games and scoring just 34 goals. Joshua Zirkzee and Hojlund have managed only five goals between them, with Hojlund’s last league goal coming against Nottingham Forest on December 7.
Former Liverpool player, Jamie Carragher, speaks on Arsenal’s next match and claims that their game against Aston Villa will be challenging and described it as a test for the team to see how well they perform.
“Arsenal have looked the best team in the league by a long way so far this season, but Man City are still only five points behind.
There’s a long way to go and Arsenal will need to keep their heads! It could be tested tomorrow against Aston Villa!!”
Former Manchester United player, Jesse Lingard, has revealed that he has mutually agreed to leave FC Seoul and his contract will end. It is reported that he will leave next week.
It can be noted that the footballer joined in February 2024 and has made 66 appearances since then, scoring 18 goals.
The player shared his experience on social media, saying “My time in South Korea has been unbelievable — the football, the atmosphere, and the passion around this club have been top class.”
“The love, support, and appreciation you have shown towards me over these last two years has been truly amazing. I’ll always be grateful for the opportunity to play for such a massive club.”
Former footballer, Rio Ferdinand compares Arsenal star player, Bukayo Saka, to Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.
When comparing players, he shared that: “When Saka is on it, he looks unplayable,” however he also stated that even with Salah’s stature, he is strong.
He has got the strength like Mohamed Salah. He is small in frame and size when you look at him, but do you ever see him get pushed off the ball?
“You don’t really see people take the ball off him or put him on his arse. He is a strong little guy.”
