Man Utd fans’ verdict on Benjamin Sesko after the Premier League match against Everton at the Hill Dickinson Stadium

Manchester United fans took to United In Focus’ TalkingPoints and insisted that Benjamin Sesko must now start the Red Devils’ next match under Michael Carrick.

One Man Utd fan said: “Said he should have started today. Probably should have scored twice, but I will take his goal any day of the week. Should get a start against Palace.”

“I’d be amazed if he didn’t start the next game. He deserves it so much,” another added.

Benjamin Sesko’s turnaround has been pretty stunning! Should he start the next game?

Somebody else claimed: “Sesko must start. Front three [is] too small.”

And a fourth TalkingPoints user commented: “His height would’ve given us a new dynamic from the off[set]. We were too one-dimensional.”

While a fifth wrote: “Genuinely, what I’d say to him is: keep going with the same [thing] that you’re doing now because it’s working, but DO NOT [sic] be afraid to make some changes.”

“Definitely should’ve started today, but another great cameo off the bench,” a sixth Red Devils supporter suggested.

Someone else posted: “His start will come. Was very surprised when he was not named in the XI today. Regardless, he has given Carrick a headache for the Palace match.”
