Senne Lammens Aligns Himself With Van der Sar as Manchester United’s Starting Goalkeeper

He frames his role as providing stability so teammates can decide matches.

Overview

  • In new interviews, Lammens said his character and approach most closely mirror Edwin van der Sar’s consistency behind the defence.
  • He also cited David de Gea as a major influence and referenced Simon Mignolet, Thibaut Courtois and Manuel Neuer from his early years.
  • The 23-year-old joined from Royal Antwerp on deadline day, debuted after three league games and has retained the No. 1 spot since.
  • Local reporting lists four clean sheets and 28 goals conceded in 22 appearances as his current record.
  • Looking to Monday’s trip to Everton, he called for a reaction after November’s 1-0 home defeat that United suffered against 10 men.
