With Ramus Hojlund's comments today, I was just having a look at Hojlund and Sesko's shots and goal numbers. It's a shame he's so adamant on leaving as we're going to need at least 2 strikers next season and he would be a great and also cheap option.
Sesko - 147.2 mins per goal in the league and 202.6 across all comps
Hojlund - 218.5 mins per goal in the league, 160 across all comps
As an example, Igor Thiago has 141.3 mins per goal in the league and 122.2 across all comps.
I think the fee for Hojlund is somewhere around the £35m which isn't going to go very far in the current market.

Goodbye and good riddance, imo.
I don't dislike the guy, he tried hard, but it's time to move on, imo. A non-loss-making fee has been agreed, in fact marginally profitable if they take up their option, which they will, by all reports.
In fact, Rewz, if they take up their option, the club have no choice.

Rasmus is just not good enough for the EPL. I'm not sold on Sesko either, if I am honest. I think we desperately need an experienced striker with pace, but more importantly I would say Carrick is not exactly sold on Sesko either...
Not even sure the players are sold on Sesko. They don't seem to look for him, that's for sure.
Ok, he has potential, but you need someone for that potential to learn from.

Sesko is doing OK. When he gets a team playing to his strengths, he will do even better. Yes, it would be good to have another more experienced player alongside /to interchange with him.

I think Sesko is far better than Rasmus. Tough 1st season for him, he is improving, and we do need another striker. Playing Mbeumo out of position is not working for him or the team.

I think Premier League football doesn't suit Rasmus. I would say he isn't top class in Italy, too. A decent player and a decent guy, but not what we need. Sesko, I think, is better, although he needs improving if he is to make it here.

I have Sesko to be Golden Boot next year if we fix our midfield!

I must be watching a different Sesko to some. Under Carrick, he's been brilliant when called upon. 5 goals in 280 minutes, almost 2 goals per game.

Striker position needs players to play to their strengths. Very difficult to play J. A team that is struggling a bit. Fergy told his players to find the striker or they wouldn't play. Sesko is doing alright. He is scoring goals and growing into this new high-pressure role.
I like how he is progressing, and, slowly, J producing him has worked better than Rasmus being played as the only option, with Noone behind him.
Sure, Sesko will be better again next year. Fast, good control, good in the air, scores with both feet. What is not to like?

I have to admire your optimism, Jimbo, but one thinks that might be about as safe a bet as your United to win the Premier this season.
Might be better just giving the money to a charity, because the chances of you cashing in are very, very slim. Did you get about 10,000 -1?
27 Mar 2026 05:45:14
I haven't put it on yet, but I will, and will drop United to win the league in there also for a third leg.

Why is Sesko better than Rasmus?
Rasmus scored 16 goals in his first season, and flopped in his second season. It's far too early to say that.
Sesko hasn't exactly set the Premier League on fire. He's had a run of games where he has come off the bench and scored.

Well you were sure Liverpool would win the league at the outset.
Nobody knows anything for sure despite pointing out everyone everybody is wrong why don't you go through your many predictions.
Delusional you called people for thinking we would get a cl spot now you think its likely welcome to delusion yourself
