“Sign next Rooney, don’t depend on Ronaldo and other strikers” – Michael Owen to Man Utd

“Sign next Rooney, don’t depend on Ronaldo and other strikers” – Michael Owen to Man Utd
Michael Owen, a former striker for Manchester United, has urged his old team to sign the “next Wayne Rooney” since the Red Devils can no longer rely on Cristiano Ronaldo, Marcus Rashford, and Anthony Martial to score goals on a regular basis.Under the leadership of new manager Erik ten Hag, Man United is having a successful run.

To move up to the fifth spot in the Premier League, they have won six of their past eight games in all competitions.

In Owen’s words to AceOdds, “Cristiano Ronaldo obviously isn’t getting any younger and isn’t going to be there for another four, five years.” “You never know; this could be his final campaign.

From that perspective, you may be wondering where goals will originate. Although he has never been incredibly prolific, Marcus Rashford has always been a goal scorer.

“Over the years, martial has had several opportunities. He has never been particularly prolific or, say, scored into the twenties.

Therefore, I believe that Manchester United will eventually need to improve its goal scoring.

They have made investments over the years on their defense. The full-backs, in my opinion, are still somewhat in doubt.

They spent a lot of money on players like Wan-Bissaka and Shaw, who are most likely not now on the club.

“But I believe that when you are Manchester United, you are probably looking at the next 18, 19, or 20-year-old Wayne Rooney.

“If you’re going to acquire someone, they need to be committed to holding that position for the next ten years.

“However, they haven’t actually done it with anyone out there right now,”
