Benjamin Šeško (playing for Man United)

[andycap]

From the opening two games for a big lad he doesn't seem to be able to make a nuisance for the defenders, that would be my worry.

 Sure.

 

Even if I grant you Sesko, I would take Delap, Ekitike, or Pedro in a heartbeat.

Ekitike and Delap for me. Pedro’s flattered to deceive since the WC, IMO.

What? He scored 3 in 3 CWC games. Since then he’s played in 2 friendlies & scored in them both and He’s played 2 league games. Scoring and 2 assists. 
 

he literally couldn’t have had a better start 

[Gallowgate Toon]

He looks like he has some tidy feet but not doing it in the right spaces. Doesn't seem quite sure where best to position himself.

[Hanshithispantz]

Think Pedro looks like the best of the lot, he's a bit like Nunez with his physicality but just a lot better on the ball. He'd have been quality under Howe, he's perfect for him.

There is no way that any of those three can be considered dodged bullets. Delap is a huge upgrade on Wilson at a great price. (Chelsea will shortly double their investment. They'll offload Jackson for more than they spent on Delap and then sell Delap in a year or two at a profit. Fuckers)

 

And Eddie has been chasing Pedro and Ekitike for years. If Eddie wants them...

Haven’t seen his performance, but it’s way too early to write him off.

He's had a good start but he could have scored a hatrick in both games tbf.  That would have been a better start.

Exactly.

[toon25]

Mbuemo would have been absolutely fucking brilliant under Eddie Howe.

As good as our transfers have been under the new ownership we've also generally been lucky in terms of the players we've missed out on. It's far too early to say that's the case here but my fingers are firmly crossed that it is.

[gbandit]

Sesko is the only player this window that I’m pleased we didn’t sign. All the others we were in for I’d have been very happy with

Definitely. Two sub performances too.

 

Hope he does flop though, and wouldn’t be entirely surprised.

Let's do it anyway, what harm could it do?

Pedro’s levels above Delap like.

Of course he's going to flop. When was the last time Manure developed a young promising talent. That club has already ruined Kobe Mainoo by the looks of it

[alexf]

Cunha looked great again for Man U the first 15 mins but then seemed to fade out the game.

 

That chance he took out the sky was perfect up until the finish. 

 

I do remember up until last season, when it all seemed to click, his finishing was what used to let him down. Would do amazing work leading up to it but then used to fluff his lines alot. 

[Menace]

Dodging bullets ffs. It's still August.

[KetteringMag]

Do you reckon he regrets this yet ?

But but Man Utd were good a while ago with a different manager.
