Former Manchester United Legend, Rio Ferdinand has delivered his verdict on the club’s summer signing Benjamin Sesko.

This is following Manchester United’s 1-1 draw against Fulham on Sunday.

The Red Devils had to settle for just one point having surrendered a 1-0 lead against the Cottagers.

Ruben Amorim’s side went ahead in the 58th minute courtesy of Rodrigo Muniz’s own goal.

However, they were pegged back in the 73rd minute with Emile Smith Rowe scoring the equaliser for Marco Silva’s side.

Following the game, Rio Ferdinand criticised how Benjamin Sesko was utilised after he was introduced from the bench in the 53rd minute.

He said as quoted by Metro, “Get the ball into him. He isn’t going to be an easy day’s work. Get it into him and make them defend.

“But we are playing it around him. Sometimes it’s like really basic, fundamental things. Get it into someone who can cause problems but we go against that. So that was my main concern, you are not getting to see who he is.

“I would rather you play it into him and he look rubbish so we know what we’ve got because, right now, I don’t know what he is or what he’s doing. I’m not pointing the finger but you have got to help your team-mates find their feet in the team.”

Sesko joined Manchester United this summer in a deal worth up to a reported €99 million with add-ons.
