Manchester United were out-classed and over-powered by Manchester City in an embarrassing 3-0 defeat in Sunday's derby which compounded their poor start to the Premier League season. Luke Shaw was the worst of a terrible bunch of defenders while Benjamin Sekso's abject first start summed up the team's limp attack. United have just four points from their first four games and it could get worse before it gets better as they face Chelsea next.
Manchester United’s new signing Benjamin Sesko has been compared to Manchester City superstar Erling Haaland, with one of his former coaches, Rene Aufhauser, insisting the Slovenian is already close to that elite level. Sesko, who joined from RB Leipzig after interest from Newcastle and Arsenal, has been tipped to reach the very top thanks to his mix of physical presence, speed and technical ability.
Manchester United have been told that they have hit the jackpot with the signing of Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig in a whopping £74 million ($100m) deal, as the Slovenia international can become a "complete striker" at Old Trafford. The Red Devils, however, will need to be patient with their new forward, who needs time to realise his full potential.
Rasmus Hojlund has been left "heartbroken" after being forced to complete a transfer to Napoli from Manchester United. The Danish forward reportedly "considers himself better" than United's new summer signing Benjamin Sesko and wanted to stay at Old Trafford to prove his worth to manager Ruben Amorim. However, Hojlund eventually joined Napoli on an initial season-long loan.
Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has explained why he left Benjamin Sesko on the bench for the third consecutive Premier League game of the season. While Sesko did not start in the 3-2 win over Burnley, the club's first victory of the domestic season, he was introduced in the final 20 minutes as a substitute.
Harry Maguire has insisted Man Utd's new £74 million ($99m) striker Benjamin Sesko "will cause a lot of defenders problems" despite getting off to a slow start at Old Trafford. Sesko has been thrust into the glare of Premier League expectations, but the early signs have sparked more questions than celebrations.
Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has expressed concern over new signing Benjamin Sesko's progress at Old Trafford as he claimed the star striker is not receiving enough balls. Despite making a big money move to United this summer from RB Leipzig, the Slovenian forward is yet to get a start under Ruben Amorim after two weeks of action.
Ruben Amorim has explained his decision to leave new Manchester United signing Benjamin Sesko on the bench for the second consecutive week. Sesko, who joined the Red Devils from RB Leipzig for a whopping £74 million ($100m) earlier this summer, came off the bench against Arsenal on matchday one and was also left out of the starting XI for Sunday's trip to Fulham.
