I scored ten goals at training yesterday because of HIM!” – Benjamin Šeško selects one Manchester United player to join him in destroying Manchester City tomorrow.
Just 24 hours before the Manchester Derby, Benjamin Šeško shocked the football world with an explosive training ground surprise. The tall Slovenian striker boasted to scoring ten goals in a single training session—and he credited a certain Manchester United colleague whose passing, he boldly asserted, is on par with—if not better than—Kevin De Bruyne’s.
Šeško declared, “His through-balls are unlike anything I’ve ever seen.” I got a ten in training yesterday because of him. If Amorim starts me and him together tomorrow, we will beat Manchester City.”
What about that teammate? None other than Bruno Fernandes.
United’s captain has faced criticism in recent months, with analysts accusing him of unreliability. However, Šeško’s statements reveal a totally different picture behind the scenes at Carrington. The striker called Fernandes’ vision “unreal,” comparing his ability to split defenses to Belgian maestro De Bruyne, who has long been regarded as the Premier League’s gold standard for playmaking.
The timing of Šeško’s words is not coincidental. United face their closest rivals at the Etihad tomorrow, with Amorim under pressure to demonstrate that his tactical ideas can compete with Guardiola’s well-oiled machine. While City has Erling Haaland, Julian Álvarez, and the ingenuity of De Bruyne, United may have found their own lethal duo: Bruno supplying and Šeško completing.
Fans on social media are already buzzing. Some call it the “birth of a deadly partnership,” while others advise Amorim not to bench either player in such a crucial game. According to one admirer, Bruno’s relationship with Šeško may be comparable to Rooney’s with Ronaldo in 2008. Amorim cannot squander this.”
Šeško’s confidence has heightened the excitement for tomorrow’s match. The striker, noted for his height, quickness, and lethal finishing, appears poised to make an impact in his maiden Manchester Derby. With Fernandes pulling the strings behind him, many believe United may finally have the formula to end City’s domination.
Now all eyes are on Amorim. Will he launch the Bruno-Šeško partnership from the start? Will he persist with his conservative rotations? Whatever happens, the Slovenian forward has thrown down the challenge, believing that with Bruno by his side, City are theirs for the taking.
Tomorrow might be the night Manchester United finds their next iconic duo—and the night City realizes their dominance is over.
