Manchester United supporters are in an uproar after manager Ruben Amorim made the unexpected decision to bench star striker Benjamin Sesko for their crucial Premier League clash against Liverpool at Anfield. The Red Devils, desperate for goals and a positive result to build momentum, will have to face their rivals without one of their key summer signings in the starting lineup.
Amorim's Bold Move: A Tactical Masterclass or a Blunder?
The decision to leave Sesko on the bench has been met with widespread criticism, with many fans questioning Amorim's judgment. Some have even labelled the move a "criminal offence," expressing their disappointment at seeing a player of Sesko's caliber restricted to a substitute role.
Amorim has made two changes to the starting eleven from their previous match against Sunderland. Leny Yoro also makes way for Harry Maguire and Matheus Cunha, who return to the team. Senne Lammens is set to make only his second Premier League appearance, mirroring the situation of Liverpool's goalkeeper, Giorgi Mamardashvili.
The United Lineup: A Defensive Approach?
Manchester United will field a back three consisting of Mathijs de Ligt, Harry Maguire, and Luke Shaw, suggesting a more defensive approach against Liverpool's potent attack. The midfield and attack will need to be firing on all cylinders if they hope to secure a vital win at Anfield.
