Former Manchester United goalkeeper Schmeichel was interviewed by the media and talked about Lamons' performance in Manchester United's 2-0 defeat of Sunderland.

Schmeichel said: "Think about how many times Manchester United goalkeepers have lost goals due to mistakes in the past few years. There have been nine times this season, which is too many. Don't forget that when I played football, the coach asked me to help the team concede ten fewer goals each season. I'm very happy to see Manchester United knocking against their opponents again. We haven't seen such a scene for a long time."

"This young goalkeeper (Lamens) did not get much playing time, but when he played It's great, and you can see him having confidence after making his first save. But it's too early to draw conclusions with him, he's still young and has almost never played in a high-level event, he'll face ruthless pressure. "

" He's done well, he shows a positive side, which we haven't seen in a long time. But when he makes mistakes and responds to them, we can really see his level, and then we'll know how good he is."
