In the 8th round of the Premier League, Manchester United defeated Liverpool 2-1 away from home. In this game, goalkeeper Ramens' performance was remarkable. After the game, Manchester United legend Ferdinand praised the Manchester United goalkeeper in his podcast and believed that he had had a huge impact on the team's defense.
■About Manchester United’s new goalkeeper Lamenz this summer
Ferdinand said: "Speaking of Lamens... What I want to say is, when I look back on my playing days, when was I in the best shape? That is when I don’t have to look back all the time to worry about what the goalkeeper will do. Where will he stand. At that time, I had full trust in the goalkeeper. For example, Van der Sar, he is such an excellent goalkeeper. His calmness and stability make me feel at ease in the defense."
■Ferdinand further explained the importance of the goalkeeper to a team
Ferdinand said: "People often don't understand how important the goalkeeper is, because he will convey that positive energy to the whole team. His confidence, stability, and decisiveness will spread to the front line. On the contrary, if he is hesitant and unsure of what to do, the uneasiness will spread quickly. . When you frequently look back to confirm the goalkeeper, your concentration on the situation ahead is interrupted. When you look up again, the picture ahead has changed."
■ Ferdinand pointed out that Lamence's positive impact on the defense can also be seen from the celebrations of his teammates after the game.
Ferdinand said: "In the past, Manchester United's defensive uncertainties and mistakes made the team as a whole very uneasy. But now look at the players' celebrations after the game. You know, this is only Ramence's second game. But the way everyone is celebrating around him is like he is already in the game. The team has been playing like this for a few years. The unity, the genuine excitement, was a sign to me that it can be overdone, but the spirit of ‘Let’s keep going’ is real.”
