Manchester United loses to an outsider: what is the main problem of Amorim.
Criticism of Benjamin Sesko after the loss to Grimsby
According to The Sun: Benjamin Sesko received significant criticism after Manchester United's difficult loss to Grimsby. The backlash from fans and experts towards the 22-year-old forward is understandable, considering it was his unfortunate tenth attempt in a row of post-match penalties.
GettyOf course, criticism is normal, but we must not forget that Sesko recently moved to a new country and is just beginning to integrate into the team. He did not perform on the field, but that does not mean he was afraid to take on responsibility.
Moreover, speculation about his physical condition cannot be overlooked, as there are suggestions that he suffered from cramps.
The need for support and mentorship
Head coach Ruben Amorim hopes that the young forward can bring additional energy to the team and possibly score his first goal. However, it is important to understand that adapting to a new club takes time, especially when you have just arrived.
Therefore, it would be unreasonable to expect him to take on the burden of executing a decisive penalty in such a stressful situation. Sesko needs support and guidance to understand how to play for such a big club as United.

For instance, why can't Wayne Rooney, who lives nearby and often visits the academy, support Sesko? His experience and knowledge could be useful for the young forward, especially considering how he himself adapted after moving from Everton to United.
The influence of mentors and training
Rooney could show Sesko some useful techniques that helped him become one of the best forwards in England. Why not invite him to training? Sometimes, such simple changes can significantly boost team spirit and performance.
Currently, criticism is directed not only at Sesko but also at the United coaching staff. Players need to realize that responsibility for the results lies with them. The question is whether they can change their approach to the game and emerge from this streak of failures.
In competitions of this level, every detail matters, and criticism can have a major impact on the players' mental state. It is important to give Sesko a chance to adapt, as adapting to a new team and life in another country is a big challenge. Time will tell whether United can overcome difficulties and get back on the right track.
