Manchester United legend, Rio Ferdinand, has named four of the club's players that must be more clinical in their finishing following the 1-1 draw against Leeds United at Elland Road over the weekend.
The former England player said that Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha, Amad Diallo and Bruno Fernandes must step up their game.
Mbeumo opened the scoring for Manchester United in the 35th minute, but Dominic Calvert-Lewin secured the equaliser six minutes into the second half.
Ferdinand highlighted that Manchester United generated considerable scoring opportunities throughout the match.
Whilst Mbeumo was able to put one behind the net, Ferdinand maintained that the forward could have scored more. He extended this observation to Cunha, who entered the match in the 84th minute.
Speaking on Rio Ferdinand Presents, the Englishman said, "And you know what as well? To add to that, we've got to become more clinical at finishing our chances.
"And Mbeumo today, yes, gets the goal, but could have had a couple more. Cunha, when he comes on, I want to see more opportunities to take chances.
"I want to see Amad be more clinical. Obviously, Bruno, he wants to get more clinical again this season after what he's done in previous seasons. That's put to bed now.
Manchester United currently occupy 13th position in the Premier League standings, having accumulated merely seven points across seven matches this season.
