Gary Neville, the former right-back of the Red Devils, was full of praise for the Portuguese international.
The victory over Liverpool in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup (4-3 after extra time) is the topic of the week among Manchester United fans. Even though almost a week has passed since that (epic) game, fans and commentators affected by the club continue to analyse the growth of Ten Hag’s pupils.
This is the case with Gary Neville, commentator and former right-back for the Red Devils, who has already chosen the “best player” of the season for Man. United’s season.
“Diogo Dalot did very well [in the game against Liverpool]. He’s been the best player this season,” argued the former England international.
The truth is that since Erik Ten Hag’s arrival at the helm of the Red Devils, the Portuguese centre-back has started 74 times in a total of 80 matches. This season, Dalot has made 37 starts out of a possible 39, which shows how important he is in the Dutch coach’s tactical design.
Whether it’s defensive recovery, transition or attack, Diogo Dalot is involved in every phase of Manchester United’s game. In his fifth season in Manchester, Dalot is looking to win new trophies after winning the League Cup last season.
