Neville: “It Would Kill Him Not to Start”
Neville told Sky Sports that Sesko’s recent performances have proven he deserves to lead the line for Manchester United’s next match.
He suggested Carrick’s attacking trio should feature Sesko up top, with Matheus Cunha left, Bryan Mbeumo right, and Bruno Fernandes behind.
Amad Diallo, though performing well, would step aside temporarily to allow the rising Slovenian star to start in this crucial fixture, reports Express.
Neville emphasised Sesko’s growing confidence, physical power, and match influence, asserting his inclusion now reflects the best team selection strategy.
The former United defender highlighted Sesko’s celebrations as a clear signal of his desire to start, sending a message to fans and management.
Despite struggling under previous managers, Sesko has now earned the momentum to be the team’s first-choice striker and impact Sunday’s game.
