Only time to bring Dalot on for Amad is when we're seeing out a game.
We've got Mazraoui for that.

Agreed.We've got Mazraoui for that.
This. Absolutely thisWrong. He was always that bad, we just had worse players around him that were made the scapegoat for his feck ups. He’s consistently shit.
He’s not a footballer, he’s an athlete.
People keep forgetting that the only reason he’s still here is because Woodward and co re-signed him to protect his value before his contract ran out. At a well ran club, he would have been allowed to leave instead of us extending this liability.
To shore up our MF, I wonder if Amorim may consider inverting one of the fullbacks when we are in possession. Dalot had his best season when he was inverting and seems quite pointless as a WB. It may help the transition back to a defensive formation vs the WB being caught up front all the time when we lose posession.
Dalot often seems quite pointless.
Yep. Been batting this horse for years, he’s a dogshit player and always has been. He will have games where he isn’t mediocre but at his best what is he actually good at? Nobody on here would be able to answer that.Wrong. He was always that bad, we just had worse players around him that were made the scapegoat for his feck ups. He’s consistently shit.

His best spell iirc came under ETH where he spent about six games winning lots of back post headers. But nobody can say he’s been a consistently good attacking full back for us nor a consistently good defensive fullback. One of those players I’m just sick at the sight of year in year out.
7 years, one of them at Milan - so 6 seasons (and 2 games).Always has at least one huge mistake in him every game. Low footballing IQ and been here for 9 seasons...
He's a good example of what it really takes to be a footballer at the highest level. I think his physical attributes are very good, he has decent technique, and he can strike a ball quite well (although maybe not consistently). But he ends up being average because of his concentration, awareness, decision making, etc.Always has at least one huge mistake in him every game. Low footballing IQ and been here for 9 seasons...

I worry he's viewed differently from inside Utd as opposed to us outside. there is never any talk of him leaving and he was recently made one of Amorims leaders
That season is the outlier for him... not other way around. This is his actual level and has always been. Braindead player.Having an horrendous start to the season. Very worrying stuff. Even his defensive game, which was pretty solid in the 23-24 season has gone off a cliff. 24-25 season was a mess as it looked like he was overworked and then got played out of position so frequently but the excuses stop now. He's got to screw his head back on.

He was garbage-tempted to say as usual- but do you mean the first goal? He was high up the pitch when Mainoo and Ugarte made a mess of things and then Fredericson makes the slowest run ever to get to their player before Onana makes a mess of a routine save again.Where did he go for the second goal?
He should not be a wing back. He’s not even a good right back.
Thought he was one of the few players that was OK to be honest.
Both wing backs were rubbish because they had zero support and had to also cover the horror show in midfield. He could actually take people on and drive us forward through the centre, I want someone with those attributes in midfield!At centre back he was decent. Everything before that as a wing back was poor.
He's got the athleticism, technique and on the ball ability to do well in a wide CB role. Hopefully we won't see that happen though as we need to move from this formation, manager and whatever 'vision' of it.
Yeah, to be fair to him he was our player of the season at RB, then made to play LB, then LWB, then RWB, he's also not played RCB and LCB.... can we not just have him and Maz fight for the RB slot and stop this madness of a setup?At centre back he was decent. Everything before that as a wing back was poor.
