Benjamin Sesko Shines for Manchester United Under Michael Carrick with Winner Against Everton

Manchester United's big-money forward Benjamin Sesko is finally delivering under interim manager Michael Carrick, scoring the winning goal in a victory against Everton. The £66.4m ($89.1m) signing from RB Leipzig, who struggled for starts under predecessor Ruben Amorim, has now netted three goals in four games and six in seven, showcasing the ruthless finishing expected from his price tag.

Sesko's confident counter-attack strike highlighted United's improved form, complemented by strong performances from Kobbie Mainoo and goalkeeper Senne Lammens. Carrick's approach is making the most of the squad's assets, casting doubts on Amorim's tenure and suggesting a potential long-term fit. While United aren't yet the complete package, this streak underscores Sesko's growing impact.
