Benjamin Sesko chant: Lyrics, tune and story behind Man Utd’s song for their new striker

Benjamin Sesko hasn't had the best start to life at Manchester United, and although there is firm belief within the club about his potential, the Slovenian is going to need to score goals more regularly if he is to fully convince supporters.

The former RB Leipzig man has only managed to score twice in the Premier League so far, and while an injury that kept him out for a month between November and December hasn't helped, he needs a strong second half of the season.

Despite his sluggish start in red, the striker was given his very own Manchester United chant before he had even kicked a ball for the club.

For more information on the lyrics, tune, and story behind the Benjamin Sesko chant, we have you covered.

Benjamin Sesko chant lyrics and tune

The Benjamin Sesko chant is sung to the famous British tune of ‘Let's go f***ing mental', and the lyrics are simply as follows:

Sesko f***ing mental

Sesko f***ing mental

Na, na, na, na

Na, na, na, na

Benjamin Sesko chant background

For context, this isn't a football chant that has yet made it to the stands at Old Trafford or in Man Utd away ends, and it is unlikely to ever do so. Many Man Utd fans have publicly slated the chant on social media, labelling it ‘tin pot', which has likely shut it down before it can grow any bigger.

The reality is, though, nobody has yet come up with any alternatives, so for now, this is the chant that will be associated with the player. So, those who aren't happy with it should perhaps try and create something new.

More importantly, the job now is for the player to start scoring goals on a regular basis, at which point, the Man Utd faithful will simply have to come up with something better for him.

FGG says: More to come

There has been a decline in the standard of chants produced by Manchester United fans in recent times. Part of that could be to do with the fact that they don't feel any of their players deserve a good chant, while another could be simply a generational change in their support. What they can all agree on, however, is that Benjamin Sesko deserves better than this.
