Patrice Evra’s message to Benjamin Šeško is brutally simple: Manchester United need their striker to become ruthless in front of goal. 😤🎯
The Slovenian forward has already shown why United invested heavily in him. After missing almost three months with a shin injury, Šeško returned gradually and immediately started making an impact. He scored a late header against Everton to put United ahead before the match ended 2–2, then followed it up with another goal in the 4–0 Champions League victory over Sabah. 🔥⚽
That return has only increased the calls for Šeško to be given more responsibility.
Michael Carrick has highlighted the qualities that make the 23-year-old different: physicality, pace, movement in behind and the ability to play on the last line of defence.
And there is a growing argument that United need to make greater use of those qualities.
Šeško himself has said he feels significantly better than he did during his first season in England. After adapting to a new country and a new club, he now says he is settled, happy and enjoying life in Manchester.
💥 NOW COMES THE BIG TEST.
United have attacking talent around him, but Šeško is the squad’s recognised out-and-out No.9. Evra has previously pointed to the need for more goals and attacking firepower at Old Trafford, while Šeško’s development has made him increasingly important to the club’s plans.
The former United full-back’s message perfectly captures what supporters want to see from their striker:
Attack the box.
Take the chances.
Bulldoze defenders.
And when the opportunity comes… FINISH IT. 😤🔥
Šeško has already shown glimpses of that killer instinct.
Now United fans will want to see it week after week. 👀🔴
Because at Manchester United, being dangerous is not enough.
You have to be RUTHLESS. 💥👊
