00:00Sometimes, no news is good news. In the toxic world of football media, if no one is talking
00:04about you and you're playing week in, week out for the biggest team in the world, you're doing
00:08something right. That is Senna Lamens. Following on from probably the most dramatic goalkeeper in
00:13Man United history, Andre and Arna, the Red Devils just needed a safe pair of hands. No tattoos,
00:19no alcohol, no partying, just pure cross-claiming, simple passes and saving long shots. It's hard
00:24to know what Lamens' ceiling is. Will he be as good, as spectacular, as match-winning-y as De Gea?
00:30As Peter Schmeichel? Probably not. But does he need to be? Probably not. We live in a world of
00:35mesmerising goalkeepers. Watching the likes of David Rai and Joan Garcia is like watching a
00:39different sport to the goalkeepers of the previous decades. Donnarumma makes impossible saves,
00:44but Lamens just does everything he should do. He's the Mark Gahy of goalkeepers, Mr. Reliable.
00:50In a remarkably volatile era of Manchester United, Lamens offers the stability they badly needed.
