Mateusz Cunha joining hard to save Manchester United?

It was recently reported that Premier League giants Manchester United are interested in signing Wolves striker Mateusz Cunha in the hope of boosting the team’s sluggish attacking performance. However, former Premier League player and current football pundit Jamie O’Hara has expressed his skepticism over the potential deal, stating that Cunha may not be a real solution to United’s current problems.

Manchester United are keeping tabs on Brazilian striker Cunha

Born in 1999, Mateusz Cunha is a Brazilian striker who currently plays for Wolves in the English Premier League. He is fast and skilled and was once considered a player with great potential. Manchester United saw him as an attacking player who could bring new energy to the team and hoped to complete the signing this summer.

However, despite Cunha’s good statistics, O’Hara warned United not to pin all their hopes on him. He told his show: “I don’t have a lot of faith in Cunha’s ability. He has talent, but I don’t know if he really has the drive and determination to be a top player.

Cunha’s attitude to the game is questioned

O’Hara pointed out that while Cunha has some individual ability, he is not considered to be very motivated in the game. Statistically, he is one of the most used players in Premier League matches. This kind of form does not suit Manchester United, who are in the midst of a rebuilding process. O’Hara asked, “United need a player who gives his all and is always on the field, not a striker whose form is up and down and who doesn’t run much.

Are United short of midfielders more than strikers?

As well as expressing his concern over Cunha’s attitude, O’Hara also mentioned that United’s most pressing need at the moment is a strong midfielder. He believes that the team’s lack of control in the middle of the park, rather than the ineffectiveness of the strikers, is the core problem. He even mentioned some of the players United have neglected, such as Scott McTominay, who is now doing well in Italy, and Andreas Pereira, who used to play for the team.

O’Hara said: “United had the opportunity to keep some players who could fit into the team’s tactical system, but they were all let go. If those players were still in the team now, things might be better.

Manchester United’s current situation is worrying

Finally, O’Hara also spoke about the current situation at Manchester United. He believes that United are no longer the formidable superpower they once were, and that many players might reconsider their decision to join the club because of the current state of the team.

“If I were Cunha, I would ask myself: is United really worth joining now? They are not the same Manchester United that people dream of joining,” he said.

He added: “United were very poor against Wolves and I don’t see any signs of improvement. Apart from Bruno Fernandes, there are very few players in the team you can rely on.

Summary

While Cunha is a young striker with potential, there is still a question mark over his suitability for the current United side. With the team’s poor performances and unclear tactics, it is difficult to turn the situation around by bringing in an attacker alone. United need a bigger change than just a new striker. For Cunha, joining such a rebuilding team deserves serious consideration.
