In MU's recent 2-2 draw against Everton, rookie Bryan Mbeumo impressed. He even became a fuse for most of the Reds's attacks in the first half.
At MU's final rehearsal in the summer tour of the summer of 2025 to meet rival Everton, coach Ruben Amorim let rookie Bryan Mbeumo play the debut. The new star moved from the Brentford Club stone the striker, in the 4-3-2-1 scheme, side by side with Matheus Cunha and captain Bruno Fernandes. Although only appearing on the field for the first 45 minutes, the impression that Mbeumo left is very good.
Bryan Mbeumo has shown the ability to integrate very well with the new team. On the Mercedes-Benz field, there was no feeling that he was a new wet-legged player to join MU. The 25 -year -old Cameroon striker even became a “explosive point” for most of the Red Devils to attack in the first half thanks to the ability to play high -level pressing very well, operate wide and effectively connect with two strikers.
Different from Brentford, often “crucified” on the right wing corridor, Bryan Mbeumo was allowed to play quite freely by Ruben Amorim coach on the MU attack. With the full physical foundation, he often backed up to search the ball, creating a connection with Bruno Fernandes and Matheus Cunha, and there were very good tectonic lines, besides the forte finish. Everton's defense really had a hard working day before MU rookie.
The statistics after the match without lying. Mbeumo had no less than 3 finishing situations that made Everton's goalkeeper Jordan Pickford bloom. He also has no less than 3 delicious passes for his teammates, notably the spark of the attack on the 18th minute, to lead to the opening goal of MU by captain Bruno Fernandes. His impressive performance was recorded by applause from the fans in the stands, when the first half closed.
It can be affirmed that the influence of Bryan Mbeumo on MU's attacking play in the Everton 2-2 draw is very large, although he does not directly score. He divided the fire with Bruno Fernandes, helping the Portuguese player to have more land to act, while giving Matheus Cunha spearhead the opportunities to score. After the 25 -year -old striker was drawn by coach Ruben Amorim at the beginning of the second half to replace it with Patrick Dorgu, MU's attacking play no longer maintained continuous pressure towards Everton's goal.
The rare not good point of Bryan Mbeumo in the match against Everton is the ability to control the ball in a narrow range. He was quite embarrassed in a few situations that were crushed by the opponent's defender and lost the ball unfortunately. This is the weakness that the rookie worth £ 71 million of MU needs to overcome soon, if you want to meet the expectations of the Manchester team.
Despite that, coach Ruben Amorim still rubbed his hand extremely satisfied with the performance of Bryan Mbeumo in the home team's 2-2 draw against Everton. In an interview after the match, the Portuguese strategist emphasized that what the rookie had just moved from the Brentford Club did on the Mercedes-Benz field far beyond his expectations. Coach Amorim also expressed his desire that Mbeumo would continue to strengthen the cohesion with Bruno Fernandes and Matheus Cunha, so that MU truly became a scary team in the attack in the 2025/26 season.
Remember, Bryan Mbeumo had just wet his feet to join the MU, then hurriedly took a flight to the United States to focus with his new teammates. Because he needs time to rest after the long journey of travel, coach Ruben Amorim let the Cameroon player rest in the previous friendly match against his opponent Bournemouth.
