Overview

• Benjamin Sesko started on the bench for Manchester United’s first two league matches, at home to Arsenal and away to Fulham, and came on in both as United drew 1-1 at Craven Cottage.
• Ruben Amorim said Sesko has been with the club for about two weeks and is still understanding the setup, a message reported via Fabrizio Romano.
• United are using the striker as an impact substitute to build rhythm and confidence before handing him a starting role.
• Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo retained starting places, with Mason Mount also deployed in the attack against Fulham.
• TV pundits questioned the approach, with Andy Gray expressing disbelief at the continued benching and Owen Hargreaves warning the striker situation still looks unresolved.
