Senne Lammens and Benjamin Sesko are two key players for the future of Manchester United, and they are currently pushing each other during training sessions at Carrington.
Both Senne Lammens and Benjamin Sesko arrived in the summer as young signings with their best years still to come at Manchester United.
But despite their potential, Lammens and Sesko have both impressed this season, playing with maturity beyond their years and a professionalism that bodes well for the club.
Now, while discussing the Slovenian, Lammens has admitted one crazy attribute that Sesko showcases against him in training.
Have you been convinced by Sesko like Carrick has?
He's in amazing form, but what else does he need to add?

Senne Lammens raves about Benjamin Sesko
Lammens has appeared on the Fozcast podcast with Ben Foster and was asked who in United training has the hardest shooting.
“Who has the hardest shot in training?” Foster quizzed Lammens.
“Benjamin Sesko, it’s crazy sometimes. You know, as a goalkeeper, when someone is like five yards in front of you, he still does it sometimes, and I’m thinking ‘easy, relax.’”

Facing a striker as powerful and lethal as Sesko in training every day is a massive benefit for Lammens, and vice versa, with the pair improving each other.
Sesko’s lethal shot power is something United are yet to really see in action during games, with his goals mainly being well-placed efforts as opposed to being rifled in.
However, opposition keepers will beware, given that Sesko is now aiming to score from range, for which he will need his power.
Do you agree with Edwin van der Sar over his Lammens praise?
He was excellent against Everton, but is he the long-term goalkeeper for United?

Manchester United is benefiting from improved quality in training
United’s improvements over the current season are evident, and while not the main reason, one thing flying under the radar is the impact of the improved quality of training.
United’s forwards have gone from training against Andre Onana in goal to Lammens, which in turn forces them to up their own game to beat him during sessions.
Lammens also benefits from facing Sesko, Matheus Cunha, and Bryan Mbeumo shots, as opposed to Rasmus Hojlund and Alejandro Garnacho, which hardly prepares a goalkeeper for elite forwards in the Premier League.
This altogether just puts United in a much better place to compete, and we are seeing the benefits of this on the pitch.
