BBC Radio Manchester’s Joe McGrath and Gaz Drinkwater have selected goalkeeper Senne Lammens as Manchester United’s signing of the season after an impressive debut campaign succeeding the struggling Andre Onana.
The 23-year-old has looked assured in his 32 Premier League starts since his summer move from Royal Antwerp, keeping eight clean sheets as the Red Devils finished third.
“Across the board, on social media, on our emails, Lammens is number one for everyone,” McGrath told The Devils’ Advocate podcast, from BBC Sounds.
“They understand we had difficult seasons with Onana in goal. You look back at some of the mistakes from last year and scratch your head. He was never going to be our number one goalkeeper going forward if we had anything about us.
“Lammens seems to to have his head well and truly screwed on and he seems very calculated. Going forward, in build-up with a great team around him, I think he will just get better and better. It has been a remarkable season for all our summer signings but Lammens is our number one.”
Drinkwater added: “Lammens has had a fantastic season.
“He’s an 8.5 out of 10 signing. He’s my signing of the season.”
