BREAKING ‼️: Šeško Questions Amorim’s Selections – Claims Manager “Doesn’t Know What He’s Doing” After star Sensational Performance vs Burnley.
Manchester United striker Benjamin Šeško has sparked huge controversy inside Old Trafford after making bold comments about manager Ruben Amorim’s team selection following United’s narrow 3-2 win over Burnley.
Šeško, who has himself been frustrated with limited game time this season, was left stunned by Kobbie Mainoo’s breathtaking display in midfield, which has once again raised questions about why Amorim has been reluctant to start the teenager regularly.
Speaking after the game, Šeško revealed his disbelief:
“I knew he [Mainoo] has all the abilities to do everything, but there’s one thing he did today which really shocked me. Honestly, I’m beginning to believe Amorim doesn’t know what he’s doing. How do you keep a player like this on the bench? It doesn’t make sense.”
Mainoo, only 19, completely dominated the midfield when called upon, controlling possession, breaking up Burnley’s attacks, and driving United forward with maturity beyond his years. His performance left fans in awe, many insisting he should be a guaranteed starter.
Šeško’s comments have only added fuel to the fire. United supporters have long accused Amorim of poor squad management, with several pointing out his negligence in both striker and midfield selections this season. To hear one of the club’s own attackers echo the same frustrations is a huge blow to Amorim’s authority.
“Amorim doesn’t know what he’s doing if he keeps benching Mainoo,” Šeško added. “This boy has already shown he belongs in the starting XI. The fans can see it, the players can see it. So why can’t the manager?”
The statement has sent shockwaves through the fanbase, with many now siding with Šeško’s assessment. Pressure is rapidly mounting on Amorim, who faces growing criticism not just from pundits and legends of the club, but now from his very own dressing room.
Is this the first public crack in United’s unity under Amorim? The coming weeks may decide not only United’s season, but also Amorim’s future at the club.
