Former Manchester United striker Michael Owen has insisted that the Red Devils do not need a new goalkeeper, despite Andre Onana's mistake-riddled performance in their embarrassing Carabao Cup second-round defeat to Grimsby Town.

The League Two club pulled off one of the shocks of this century by sensationally knocking out Ruben Amorim's side on penalties after United had fought their way back from two goals down to force the shootout.

It was the first time that United had ever been eliminated from a domestic cup tie by a fourth-tier side.
