Manchester United drew away to Bournemouth, with Bryan Mbeumo struggling to score and going six games without netting.
The Daily Mail points out that in the last two matches, Michael Carrick has used Bryan Mbeumo as a center forward, and the Cameroonian's performance has been as inefficient as that of Benjamin Šeško previously. Undoubtedly, Mbeumo is one of Manchester United's best players this season, whether on his familiar right wing or occasionally filling in centrally.
However, in Sunday's match against Aston Villa, Mbeumo was the first player to be substituted, with Šeško coming on as a substitute to help Manchester United secure a 3-1 victory. At Bournemouth, Mbeumo again underperformed, and Carrick once again substituted him first.
Playing him centrally allows Amad Diallo to play on the right wing, but so far, neither Mbeumo nor Šeško has provided the necessary threat in the center forward position for Manchester United.
