Sesko had actually played a key role in the first half, winning a vital aerial duel against Trevoh Chalobah which led to Bryan Mbeumo’s chance and Robert Sánchez’s sending off.
The attacker has still not scored a goal for the Red Devils since joining the club from RB Leipzig in the summer transfer window.
While the criticism on his output is justified, he was instrumental in the match against Chelsea and created an opening for his teammate which eventually resulted in a red card for Enzo Maresca’s team.
**Benjamin Sesko wrote a positive message on Instagram**
Despite being taken off early, the attacker remained upbeat and shared a message on his Instagram account.
He wrote: “Fighting all together, no fear. Old Trafford buzzing, one mission. Keep going! Come on, Man United.”
The 22-year-old is still searching for his first goal contribution in the Premier League after six appearances.
His adaptation period has been challenging, with few clear-cut opportunities falling his way.
However, Amorim has continued to back the former RB Leipzig striker, believing his movement and physical presence will eventually pay dividends once he adjusts to the pace and intensity of English football.
United fans will take encouragement from Sesko’s positive mindset. His willingness to fight for the badge, even when things aren’t going perfectly, hints at the character Amorim is trying to instill throughout the squad.
They need to be patient with Sesko in terms of his goal scoring return and Amorim should continue to back the player and keep giving him starts since he is finally looking like he is building chemistry with his new teammates.
Even though Sesko did not contribute to a goal directly, club captain Bruno Fernandes praised his contribution and appreciated the impact he made against Chelsea.
