He had a decent game, you weapons. One silly free kick conceded a long way out but otherwise played well. His passing has improved over the last few games. He’s less conservative and trusting himself more. Onwards and upwards from here.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!
Which is stupid because Dalot is far better at it.
Eh, I thought he was distinctly average. Some nice passes and moments on the ball, a few moments of poor defending, overall meh.
Which isn't what you're hoping for from someone that everyone just assumed would be locked in to that LCB spot for the foreseeable future as a stalwart in the middle. Especially not against such average opposition.
Yeah I thought he was pretty average as well today, not at his best yet. He seemed to push up too much and leave big spaces behind him cause Dalot was playing as striker at times.
He was fine apart from the stupid yellow card. I'm far more annoyed by the midfield and our 'attack' tonight.
Seems like more are starting to see that he's not the long term answer at CB.
Look at the progression chart
Didn’t have a poor game at all on my viewing.
Man Utd 0:3 Tottenham
New
He has been terrible this season.
Physically looks way off it, slow, getting turned, non existent in the air.
But genius Ten Hag plays a style that keeps giving slow players massive space to cover, utter ineptitude.

He's been absolute bobbins this season.
Another disasterclass. New manager won't be having him at CB.
He's had a crap season, so far. I've really gone off him.
Him and De Ligt together are too aggressive
Absolutely fallen off a cliff.
De Ligt/Yoro will be the partnership under the next manager.

Was okay.
Atrocious again, call me an agenda poster, but damn, he's just doing nothing at the moment. Could be replaced by a cardboard cutout.
Lack of composure and just poor play. Needs to step it up big time
Need Yoro and quickly
Just a mid table player.
How did he end up near the box for 2-3 shots 
He's a great player having a terrible time. All of our players look absolutely shite at the moment.
An 18 year old new to the PL isn't going to save us or Martinez in the short term.
I’ve really enjoyed his all action displays. Varane was the perfect partner for him. But alongside an equally aggressive cb he has been so exposed this season.
Suspect you’re right. Deligt Yoro will be the partnership in the not too distant future
Him and De Ligt had most our chances..
He’s liable to get a red card sooner than later in the upcoming games.
Do the other top 5 centre backs in the world constantly dive in recklessly high up the field rather than show any sort of brains? He was always somewhat overrated on here because his flaws were masked due to being partnered by an actually elite centre back but this season he's been absolutely shambolic so far.
It means we can bench Martinez which would be great
Looks a shadow of his former self, useless
I’m a fan but this lack of form is getting worrying. Hopefully he’ll turn things around and gets back to his best, overall his skillset is quite unique and very important to our team. But as of now I’m not sure if he’s even going to remain a starter after Yoro gets fit.
Can we have the butcher back. What the hell has happened to his form.
Do we know when York is returning?
Licha/Varane - 33G W64% D21% L15%
Licha/Maguire - 27G W67% D11% L22%
Licha/Lindelof - 21G W57% D10% L33%
Varane/Maguire - 45G W62% D16% L22%
Varane/Lindelof - 43G W63% D16% L21%
Licha was competing with Maguire and Lindelof. He needed to be better than them, which he was I believe.
Probably soonish (as in weeks, not months), he’s already training individually.
I also don't think Maguire and Lindelof are elite centre backs, just being better than them isn't the standard we need if we ever want to get closer to the top again.
hasn’t been the same player since his first season
He looks slow. Goes into tackle he has no chance of winning. He has been poor this season in every game he has played
Casemiro's tendency to lunge into tackles, to avoid having to sprint back and defend a counter, seems to have rubbed off on Martinez unfortunately.
He's providing great competition to Bruno for United's most overrated player by United fans.
Arteta buys the short CB from Ajax and plays him at full back because he knows what it takes to be a CB in this league.
Martinez is a really talented player but there’s just no chance we have a great defence if he plays CB in a back four. The limitations of pace and aerial ability is just too much to cover especially without a VVD or Saliba next to him.

His big weaknesses were all shown in this game:
Weak in the air
Being out of position in the box and not being able to stop passes /shots in the box
Being way too high up in combination with being poor in ground duels
Diving violently into pointless tackles
Positive he had one great ball to Casemiro and a few nice interceptions.
