MU needs more 'Mbeumo'

The 2-2 draw against Tottenham in the 11th round of the Premier League on the evening of November 8 was like a mirror reflecting the true face of MU. They took the lead, controlled the game, then in just a few minutes, everything collapsed.

Amorim stood still on the sidelines, clutching a water bottle, watching his players lose their rhythm. And in between those two extremes, there were two clear images: Mbeumo shining, Ugarte making mistakes.

Bryan Mbeumo, a quiet signing, continued to prove his worth. He played on the left, moved intelligently, and knew when to rush into the penalty area. The opening goal was a reward for his effort and sense of responsibility. Every time Mbeumo scored, Amorim's face lightened. The 26-year-old is gradually becoming the emotional heart of Manchester United.

Mbeumo scored in the 2-2 draw between MU and Spurs.

Manuel Ugarte, on the other hand, represents the dark side of the transfer window. £42 million, high expectations, but now only disappointment. In the equalizer, he was easily surpassed by Pape Sarr. No competition, no judgment, no courage. A small situation, but it exposed a big problem, MU is spending more money than the criteria.

Amorim wants to refresh the squad, rejuvenate and create an identity. But not everyone who is young or expensive is suitable. Mbeumo is the opposite: cheap, humble, but always ready to run and fight. He doesn't need the spotlight, just to be trusted. And that is what makes the difference between a good player and a valuable one.

Manchester United fans are starting to have their own chant for Mbeumo. He’s not a superstar, but he’s someone who’s always there when the team needs him. His goal at Anfield, his header against Spurs, the way he drags his teammates into the box, all show the qualities of a successful signing: dedication, discipline, efficiency.

Ugarte has not shown value yet.

Meanwhile, Ugarte, the expensive signing, cost Amorim points. In the Premier League, you don’t have time to adapt slowly. One wrong move, one indecisive step, can collapse the whole system. Manchester United don’t need more “Ugartes” like that.

The final sentence in the Manchester Evening News commentary sounded like a reminder: “The club needs more signings like Mbeumo. They don't need more signings like Ugarte.” That's not just a comment, it's a conclusion.

United are in the process of being reborn, but to truly be back, they have to pick the right people. The most expensive signing is not always the best signing. Mbeumo is proving that every week. He has the spirit that Manchester United once had, and once lost.

As for Amorim, if he wants to leave his mark, he must learn to buy the right type of player, less noisy, more valuable. MU does not need another Ugarte. They need more Mbeumo to return to their true identity: simple, durable, and knowing how to win with personality before winning with goals.
