When Benjamin Sesko arrived at Manchester United from RB Leipzig for 73.3million in the summer of 2025, the expectations were astronomical.The Slovenian immediately was billed as the long-term answer to United's striker woes, having joined as a replacement for the stuttering Rasmus Hojlund.Instead, his early months at Old Trafford were defined by heavy touches, isolated performances, and the suffocating pressure of a fanbase desperate for a talisman.Fast forward to this past weekend, and the narrative has completely flipped. Sesko is no longer an expensive question mark; following his match-winning heroics against Crystal Palace, he is now on his way to becoming a guaranteed starter.TRENDINGStoriesVideosYour SayThe Red Devils are dreaming of Champions League football following his resurgence, with Michael Carrick's men now third in the table.But how has Sesko been able to turn it around? GB News now takes a look inside his time at Old Trafford and why he's now producing the goods with such consistency.Mentality monster behind the scenesThe catalyst for Sesko's transformation wasn't a stroke of luck. Instead, it was relentless, quiet dedication.While his early-season struggles under Ruben Amorim made him a prime target for criticism, insiders at United noted he was quickly becoming one of the most dedicated young players the club had seen.Instead of shrinking away, Sesko doubled down on the Carrington training pitches, as so many club legends have done over the years.LATEST SPORTS NEWS:10 talking points from the Premier League including Ramadan row, Arsenal art form and weird Sunday quirkLeeds United's potential punishments after fans booed Ramadan break during Premier League match with Man CityF1's best-paid drivers as Lando Norris, Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton eye Australian Grand Prix gloryUnder the guidance of interim manager Michael Carrick, Sesko has been putting in the extra hours to simplify his game, working tirelessly on his movement inside the box and attacking crosses.That training ground diligence paid off spectacularly on Sunday.He perfectly anticipated Bruno Fernandes' 65th-minute delivery, separating from his marker to power a bullet header past Dean Henderson and secure a crucial 2-1 comeback victory.Shutting out the noiseA massive part of Sesko's mental turnaround has been his deliberate disconnection from the digital world.In an era where players are instantly analysed and heavily criticised online, Sesko actively avoids the pitiless conveyor belt of takes and memes that plagued his early months in Manchester.Recently commenting on the digital noise, the striker stated: "Something always ends up coming through social media, but I really don't pay any attention to any of that."By actively ignoring social media platforms and instead turning his focus inward, including adopting mindfulness practices like meditation, he has built a mental fortress.Tuning out the social media chatter allowed him to focus entirely on Carrick's instructions and his own physical development, completely free from the weight of external, reactionary expectations.They'll no doubt be hopeful that he can continue. The Carrick catalystThis mental clarity and training ground focus have birthed a lethal frontman.Sesko now has seven goals in his last eight appearances, and his winner against a resilient 10-man Palace side successfully lifted United to third in the Premier League table. He looks sharper, stronger, and infinitely more confident. He is no longer overthinking his movement; he is relying on his raw, killer instinct.Should he continue at this rate, he'll become one of the first names on Carrick's team sheet.
