Manchester United manager, Ruben Amorim has come out to explain why he chose to use Patrick Dorgu as a right wing-back vs Leicester City in the FA Cup. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Dorgu played on the right and on the left at Leece, and that is one of the characteristics that he paid attention to before sanctioning his purchase.
Amorim added that the youngster has a lot of pace and strength to thrive in the EPL.
His words, “No he played a lot of times in Lecce on the right & in the left. That is one of the characteristics that we pay attention to a lot to have when it comes to having players like him who are anxious at first touch with the ball.
It’s a different league for him, different speed of the game but he did well. He has pace, he has strength & is going to improve a lot & we as a team need to play better to help these new guys to perform at the right level. But the position & you can see in Wyscout that he played on both sides.”
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.
