He’s a complete joker. Every single time there’s an opportunity to go and cross, he goes back and plays a back pass and in many cases mistimed them. We could probably play Amass and have better attacking output.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to celebrate rare back-to-back victories for Manchester United! They analyse the late win in the Europa League vs. Rangers and then try and find things to analyse in a pretty dour game vs. Fulham. They also chat about the latest Marcus Rashford news, and look at the latest transfer news.
Watching him on the left is just god awful. Make it stop any way possible.
Awful player, should be shipped out asap.
The most pointless player i have ever seen. Receives the ball in so much space and never fails to do anything with it. Its amazing how consistently poor his passing is in final third while being decent everywhere else
He can not play on the left. He shouldn't be an option on the left at all. If the alternative to playing him on left ia to play without a LWB that should be seriously considered as a preferable option.
He is such a bad footballer at the moment. So, so bad.
Opponents let him have so much time and space because they know he has no idea what to do with the ball. Poor passing, unable to go past a defender, can’t shoot, can’t cross.
its not his fault as such, but dalot at LWB is one of the worst things thats ever happened at united. Genuinely may as well stick casemiro there.
He's not a winger for this system. He does not have the pace, technical ability or vision to play such a role. Passing and shooting are complete strangers to him.
Decent RB but that's it.
Decent RB but that's it.
Works hard, but it's just ludicrous asking him to play on the wrong side, in a totally different role.
Not good enough overall, but has been one of the few players who is always available with the required fitness.
Need a LWB, hope we do something in the window, even a loan is fine.

For as often as I get annoyed with him the guy never stops running. Probably the fittest player in the squad.
I just wish he was better.

In fairness, he was much better on the right.
Again, there’s not much legislating for brain dead activity
Put him on the right and he will be much better. He has never looked great on the left. I'd guarantee that he'd show more than Mazraoui on the right. He has a better engine, is a better 1 on 1 attacker, is more physical, they are pretty similar in 1 on 1 defending, he's a better header. The only area Mazraoui is better than him is at tight intricate link up play and tbh Dalot isn't that bad at it. I think once he's back on the right he will be fine.
Yeah, I’d love to know how much distance he runs. He’s an insanely hard worker. Also that might explain why he so often looks as though not enough oxygen is getting to his brain.
in fairness to him today, he defended pretty well late on in the game against some pacey wolves subs. Had one very good recovery tackle.
He’s a back up full back in a squad that currently doesn’t have a back up full back, so he plays every game. He’s started every single game under Amorim, as has Bruno, and it’s hard not to think there’s a little national bias going on.

Depends what you define fine as. He doesn’t offer anywhere near enough to be a WB in this system. In the last 3 and a half seasons, he has 5 goals and 9 assists. Just can’t have that from full backs these days.
Listen, it's clear we need a left footed wing back on the left. He got into some good positions today, following a good few passes from Maguire, yet, he's always having to cut back to his right, instead of going to the byline and getting a cross in. With that being said, he's not that good at attacking anyway. Even when utilised as a right wing back, his attacking output is pretty poor. Going forward, I'd personally use him as a right centre back.
The fact we are trying to find room in our squad to accommodate Diogo decking Dalot is a huge problem. HES NOT GOOD ENOUGHListen, it's clear we need a left footed wing back on the left.

And Kyle Walker has 7 assists and 1 goal in the same time. In terms of Dalot vs Mazraoui, Dalot for me would be the much better option at RWB and would be much better than when he is stuck out on the left. He has always performed better on the right. In terms of long term strategy we might need to get a new starting RWB at some point, however, there are many other positions I'd prioritise before replacing Dalot as a RWB option.
Anyone knows why Amorim playing him every game Not a defender not a midfielder not good going forward , not good defensively . No idea what he does or what he plays for .
Nice bloke by most accounts, but he's never ever been good enough for the level of football we long to see.
Walkers role or city set up has never been about Kyle walker being an integral part of their attack, he's been there to stop counter attacks and shut down opposition wingers. Dalot is just not good at anything other than fitness and high fives.
I’d stick him in midfield. Him playing inverted is the best he’s ever played
I'm not saying I'd start him every game like he's currently doing so under Amorim. I just think he's much better suited to defending in wide areas than say Yoro, who I felt struggled today. We've seen how natural Mazraou has transitioned into the right centre back role, as on and off the ball, he's pretty much asked to take up the same positioning to that of a right back. This is why I believe Dalot would be quite successful in that role, too.
The very epitome of brainless footballer. The fact that he is first choice and starts almost every game just tells you what Amorim has to work with.
I'd rather have Amass make defensive mistakes conceding goals but he simply cannot be as bad as Dalot going forward! It's rare to see a professional footballers do 9 out of 10 things badly repeatedly.

Which means stats don't tell the whole story then. His output over the last 2.5 years has been similar to the starting RB for Sporting. Again, can he be upgraded? of course, is he a priority? Far from it. He's a good player who may or may not end up being a starting RWB for United.
Who else plays? Malacia is worse than Dalot, and Luke Shaw is a non-entity.
He doesn't have to start him, especially not every game. Unfortunately, Amorim has been insistent on using the same format he used at Sporting, in that he wants a defensive winger on the left and attacking winger (Amad or Antony) on the right.
However, I'm not too sure why he hasn't tried Garnacho (attacking winger) on the left and Maz or (defensive) on the right. At least try it to see how it fares.
Can't wait to see the back of him. Yet another crap player who has benefited from our squad being in disarray over the years. He's avoided the chop because there are always other positions considered more important
Garnacho on the left, Maz on the right? That's pretty much what most predicted before Amorim had his first game, and it's something he hasn't even tried yet.
I've never understood the Dalot love, even at his best he was never good enough as he would always have a clanger at some point. I think the trendy kids say something like "his ceiling and his floor are both too low"?
Sell in January if Madrid are foolish enough to want him.

I think it’s looking safer to say after each passing game that Amorim doesn’t really see Garnacho as a viable option there. Has it even played there as a sub when the chips are down? It feels like only Amad and Antony are “trusted” as wingbacks of our current attackers.
Will say it till I'm blue in the face. Get him or Antony behind Amad.
Mazraoui as RCB only, LWB or don't play him.

Where attacks go to die
I understand your point, but it’s clear that what Amorim is currently doing isn’t working. Our attacking play lacks cohesion and threat, and on the rare occasions we create chances, we struggle to convert them. Garnacho, despite his inconsistency—which is understandable given his age—remains our top goalscorer. Yes, he can be frustrating at times, but he, along with Amad, is one of the few players capable of creating something out of nothing. His attacking output would undoubtedly be better than Dalot’s.
Just sell ffs
I don't think he would be any better at RCB. In this system they need to be able to play precise passes even more than the wing backs do.
Maybe because Garnacho rivals Dalot in the braindead department and has a questionable attitude to boot?
