Manchester United defender Diogo Dalot has blasted his teammates for the shocking performance which led to their shock defeat by Grimsby in the Carabao Cup. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the performance was simply below expectations, and the entire team owes the club’s supporters an apology for putting them through such humiliation.
Dalot added that despite fighting back from 2 goals down, the display was a disgrace against a beatable team.
His words, “I think we gave the game to them, clearly, straight away, exactly what they wanted. Win duels, second balls, set plays.
We fought back, but I think that was the minimum that we could show to the fans that travelled for ourselves, for the club, but clearly not good enough.
I don’t want to go through the same sentence time and again. We just have to show (that) and we just lost one opportunity today to show that we deserve to be here.”
WOW.
Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.
Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.
Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.
The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992 the left and the right, but he’s not got any sense of danger yet, and empties the midfield area too readily.
