'Great for the future', Benjamin Sesko's comments on Man Utd performance are damning for Ruben Amorim

Benjamin Sesko has scored as many goals under Darren Fletcher as he did under Ruben Amorim at Manchester United.

In Manchester United’s 2-2 draw with Burnley, Benjamin Sesko scored twice in what was easily his best performance since signing in the summer.

Interim head coach Darren Fletcher piled praise on Sesko for his performance and revealed that he spent time looking at footage of his attacking movements just 24 hours before the match.

Benjamin Sesko has just make Tim Sherwood eat his words!

It means that Benjamin Sesko has now doubled his goal tally in the Premier League to four, having only scored twice under Ruben Amorim.

While Amorim was a huge admirer of Sesko, it seems the Slovenian is looking forward to life beyond the Portuguese coach.

Benjamin Sesko excited by Man United future

Sesko has no regrets about joining United, despite his slow start to life in the Premier League.

At just 22 years old, he is already leading United’s attack, and he is clearly confident in the club’s future.

Speaking to MUTV after the Burnley draw, Sesko said: “We created great chances, especially with those two goals. Great movements, great ball.

“With this kind of situation, we are showing what kind of team we are and what we are capable of. It’s great for the future, obviously.

“I believe that great things are coming.”

Ruben Amorim didn’t get the best out of Benjamin Sesko

Amorim pushed for a change of striker in the summer, with Sesko arriving to replace Rasmus Hojlund.

However, Sesko never truly got going under Amorim and often found himself isolated and uninvolved in his 3-4-2-1 formation.

Will Benjamin Sesko WIN the “Sesko vs Hojlund” debate?

Is there even a debate to be had or has he already won it?

In his first match in charge, Fletcher was able to bring new levels out of Sesko’s performance, and his match stats prove it.

Sesko managed seven shots on target against Burnley, which is the most of any Premier League player in a single match this season.

He ended the match with two goals, but it could have been so much more and that should excite Fletcher and whoever comes in to replace him as head coach.
