Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has explained that new signing Benjamin Šeško needs time to settle in the Premier League, Softfootball reports.
The 22-year-old who is the first Slovenian to ever play for Manchester United has still not started a match for the Red Devils with just two cameo appearances against Arsenal and Fulham.
Speaking to Manchester United’s official club media after the 1-1 against Fulham at Craven Cottage, Amorim believes Šeško will come good but requires patience.
Amorim explained:
“I think he needs time. It’s not easy sometimes when you are on the bench and you get into the game and the game is really fast. I think he is understanding that the game is faster than the Bundesliga.
“But he’s fighting. He had some good connections with his team-mates. I felt that when he was on the pitch, he wasn’t on in our best moment.
“That can change the way you see a player. I am very happy as you can see his effort. We need to help him, we need to be in a better moment to help him.”
Amorim wasn’t happy that his side didn’t return to Manchester with the three points against Fulham after Bruno Fernandez failed to convert a penalty and they conceded an equaliser in the second half.
He said:
“It was a tough match. I think when we scored our goal, we forget about maintaining the way we should play. We were just thinking about maintaining the result.
“We wanted to win so badly that we forget about maintaining possession, trying to push the opponent. We just gave a little bit of the game to Fulham. We started really well, and until the goal we played really well.
“After the goal, I think we were just thinking about maintaining the advantage. We cannot do that.”
Manchester United will be back in action on Wednesday when they play League One side, Grimsby in the Carabao Cup before welcoming Burnley to Old Trafford on Saturday.
