Manchester United coach Michael Carrick brushed off calls to start Benjamin Sesko despite the striker's red-hot form coming off the bench, saying that the situation was "a real positive" for the club.
Sesko has not started a Premier League game since his brace in a 2-2 draw against Burnley last month when interim boss Darren Fletcher was in charge.
The Slovenia striker, who was signed last year for an initial fee of 76.5 million euros ($90.2 million), has scored three goals in his last four matches after coming off the bench.

"I just think the whole thing is a real positive. It's certainly not a decision that I look to in a negative way," Carrick told reporters ahead of tomorrow's home game against Crystal Palace.
"We're playing well as a team we've been winning games. I'm still not getting carried away and thinking that just carries on... Ben's been so good you know in so many ways for us. It's really not a drama.
“It just shows the quality Ben's got for what he's produced over the last few weeks. It's a good position for us to be in."
Carrick was also questioned about why his starting line-ups have been similar in recent games and the former midfielder said he faced a delicate balancing act between maintaining his side's winning momentum and keeping the entire squad happy.
