Head coach says wing-backs have ‘much more to give’
Manchester United visit Crystal Palace on Sunday
Ruben Amorim has said he feels Patrick Dorgu’s anxiety every time the wing-back receives possession for Manchester United but stated the 21-year-old has “much time” to improve.
Dorgu has performed unevenly since becoming the head coach’s first signing when joining from Lecce for £25m in February. Amorim was asked about the Dane’s form and that of another wing-back, Diogo Dalot.
“When I see them training they are doing so much better than in games,” he said. “Then Patrick, when I see him playing for the national team, he’s scored a great goal against Scotland [this month], the decision that he made under pressure was completely different [to calmly sidefoot home] to the decision[s] he’s making in our team. You can feel the anxiety every time Patrick touches the ball. I can feel it, the anxiety.”
