He'll be our starting right back by the end of the season, maybe even before that. Good debut, nothing amazing but you can see what he can give us that our other options can't
 
Someone on the right who can cross????? It's like signing Beckham all over again!
 
One slip aside in the first half, a very promising debut. Looks calm and assured, gets forward at times and also looks a capable defender. Looking forward to him and Shaw establishing themselves as the first choice FBs hopefully.
 
I’m sold, like a breath of fresh air having someone who was capable of going at people, getting to the byline and being able to put in a decent cross.
Maybe slipped a few times but could have been the pitch but he looked really promising, thank the heavens. Valencia take a rest mate.
I’m guessing that he won’t be played in the league for a while yet and champions league and Carling cup will probably be where he is seen most until getting a better look at the prem.
 
Agree with all the positive comments above. Was very impressed. He’s a young player who will have ups and downs, but at least he’s actually having a go. More attacking threat in this match from him than we have seen from Valencia in three years. Didn’t think he would start, so credit to Jose. I want to see him play a lot more for us. Good debut.
 
Maybe it's premature but he should be our starting RB. Has everything, already looks like a modern RB. Good defensively, brave and agressive in attack.
 
Fearless debut, looking forward to seeing more from the kid.
 
Surprised how good defensively he was.

Still wouldn't rush him straight in to the XI unless we play Fellaini at the Back because he does leap very forward & sometimes let the opportunity to the left wingers.
 
What a breath of fresh air.

Looked like he had a whipper of a cross from his highlight reel when he joined and he got a few in today. Can't wait for those to start connecting.

Be more than happy for him to be first choice. Would likely make a couple of mistakes but I get the feeling he'd flourish.

Yeah if possible give him a sub appearance against Wolves, then start him against Derby in the League Cup.
 
He’ll get games. He makes us look far less lop sided than we do with Valencia there because he’s not afraid to overlap, take on a man or get an early cross in. Mourinho really likes balance across the team and it will be hard for him to ignore.

Now we just need a genuine right winger ahead of him. I would personally always start Mata there now because at least he is capable of seeing his overlaps - so many times I saw him running and Rashford just ignored him.


Just watching him being interviewed now with Shaw and he seems like a good lad. His English is very good.

feck it, throw him in. He’s the future and the present is pretty rubbish. Do what Liverpool have done with TAA. We’ve got nothing to lose
 
Good interview. Shaw looked like he’d just run a marathon, whilst Dalot looked like he had just been out for a jog. Very composed interview.
 
promising debut. One mistake in the first half, otherwise really solid at both ends.

think United have something there with Shaw and Dalot. Lots of talent there and having dynamic FBs like that makes a big difference.
 
Started like a mad man up and down the wing, burned himself out a little, but very impressed with his athleticism and enthusiasm plus what looks to be solid technique and ability to take a man on. His whipped crosses are highly difficult, trying to hit them with so much pace guarantees a few will soar long but equally very hard to defend against.
 
Keeps things very simple which is very impressive for his age and being at this stage.
 
Thought he showed a lot of potential. Could be a bargain.
 
Mixed bag but loads of potential love his arrogance at driving forward, defensively a little shakey but he is a tall lad and one great defensive header in the first half.

I think we should let him share the load with Valencia straight away. Luke Shaw on the other hand was excellent again, lets hope Jose doesn't drop him for Wolverhampton the boy is benefitting from playing week in week out right now!
 
Can't form opinions too early, but he looks like a talented and confident player for sure. Interested to see how he develops.
 
I love his confidence. Can't believe he's only 19. It's his debut for Man Utd and he didn't seem to have any major nerves at all.

He's going to feck up a bit going forward but I hope people are patient with him. He's definitely got enough for us to be patient. Needs to work a bit more on his defensive game but no doubt he won't be slacking in that department with Mourinho being his coach.

Really pleased with him tonight.
