Poll: Who was Man Utd\u2019s Man of the Match in the 2-0 win vs Sunderland?<\/p>\n

The 40-year-old United manager<\/a> suggested that Sesko showed his superb overall ability with his desire to \u2018fight\u2019 for the ball \u201cevery time\u201d his side kicked the ball.<\/p>\n

Speaking to BBC Sport<\/a>, Amorim said: \u201cHe has time; he\u2019s going to stay here for a lot of years.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe media puts a lot of pressure on the goals for the striker, but for me, it\u2019s the effort that is the most important thing.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery time we kick the ball, he\u2019s fighting for it; that\u2019s massive for us. To win the second ball and give us time to breathe. I\u2019m really happy with that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Amorim also admitted that he wanted to see United produce the same performance that they did against Sunderland in other Premier League matches this season.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s frustrating to not have this kind of performance again,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to do this kind of performance away as well \u2013 it\u2019s our responsibility to play like this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Benjamin Sesko\u2019s feelings on scoring in front of the Man Utd fans at Old Trafford in the Premier League win over Sunderland<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sesko scored for the first time for the Red Devils last Saturday in United\u2019s 3-1 Premier League defeat to Brentford<\/a> at the Gtech Community Stadium.<\/p>\n

The former Newcastle and Arsenal target admitted that it is taking him time to adapt to the Premier League after playing in the Bundesliga with RB Leipzig.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis [scoring at Old Trafford] has been the moment I\u2019ve dreamed about as a kid, because the atmosphere here is unbelievable,\u201d he told TNT Sports, as per BBC Sport<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sesko continued: \u201cNot just after the goal, but after every tackle as well. It\u2019s a dream come true, I\u2019m happy we won.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are some differences [between the Premier League and the Bundesliga], the guys are stronger, but I\u2019m getting [used] to it more and more every training, getting better every single game.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sesko has made eight appearances for United across all competitions since his departure from RB Leipzig in August and the striker has netted twice for his side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ruben Amorim has now singled out one Manchester United star\u2019s elite mentality after the Red Devils\u2019 2-0 Premier…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":475166,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[5758,101,99,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-475165","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-benjamin-sesko","9":"tag-premier-league","10":"tag-ruben-amorim","11":"tag-sports","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115319915695736922","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/475165","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=475165"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/475165\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/475166"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=475165"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=475165"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=475165"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
