Is Patrick Dorgu the Left-Back Manchester United Needs? Full Player Analysis | Tactical Breakdown

I love your humility my man. I love your understanding of the game but like how you don't take yourself so seriously and get carried away. Stay humble and keep on putting out good content. I think he will come through. He is a kid. Those bad tendencies will be cleaned out or he will get shipped out. I have faith in this coaching team to develop and nurture a young talent. The defensive part is lacking for sure. He is a better one on one defender but his space awareness is not there but then that is why you have coaches. You can't teach size, speed, skill and desire. The rest can get ironed out. He is not the finished product and the money is a tad too much but he will come through for us. As an African, I love having some bad ass Africans in our team. Gives us a little bite and physicality ;-)

You need to send this video to him, that should keep him on his toes.

[@Jomo-x6n]

Thank you for the analysis. It would be a good idea if you also include a player's injury record in the stats. If his injury record is bad like Mason Mount for example, then IMHO there is no point in pursuing the player. Sadly, it looks like we are about to make another Mason Mount mistake with Nkunku.

[@gueroderze7170]

The last time Nkunku was injured was March 2024. How is he like mount?

[@gueroderze7170]

You can't call someone injury prone, because of few injuries and a season out injury. Will you say Rodri is injury prone?

[@Jomo-x6n]

@@gueroderze7170 So if a player has a 'few injuries and a season out injury' is not labelled as 'injury-prone' then Luke Shaw isn't. I'm only repeating what others have said. Are you Nkunku's brother or something?

[@gueroderze7170]

@@Jomo-x6n that's why I gave references to last injured. Shaw has always been out. And the injury records of Nkunku ain't as bad as mount and that of Shaw. The only big injury he has is the season out injury like rodri. The other records are just a normal player injury out situation.

[@Jomo-x6n]

@@gueroderze7170 Well, what you're saying is precisely the kind of information I was asking for considering the general consensus that has been circulating out there is that he is injury-prone. I'm sure INEOS would have taken injury-record into account before buying any player.

[@franklinpaul1723]

Good morning. My problem is that we want to sell Garnacho because they said we have no money. So if we have no money, why are they going for dorgu who is costing more than Alvara Carrera?

[@Bloodnok49]

It depends partly if Alvaro now wants to return - the last recent report I read suggested he was happy where he is. Accordingly, if that report was true, Utd would be better off waiting for the longer summer window, and then trigger the buy-back and give themselves enough time to selll him on. Even better ofc, is if Alvaro were to be sold anyway by Benfica in the summer, so that Utd can just sit back and share in the sell-on

[@Hehejajanejnej]

Because they are not the same player.....

[@Face-Lice]

Your information is old. Antony going on loan has freed up 1.5 million in wages. Garnacho doesn't need to be sold to sign Dorgu.

[@DaveElcock]

​@@Face-LiceGarnacho fans conveniently ignoring the fact that Amorim dropped Garnacho saying he can't play inside, remember? So why act like ineos just picking on Garnacho to fill their pockets? Amorim don't rate Garnacho his fans don't want to admit it.

[@franklinpaul1723]

@@DaveElcock And Amorim has been playing him too. So, it's not about fanboys, it's about commonsense. A young player can be coached to suit any system or formation. Did you hear the coach's statement after the last game about the same Garnacho learning fast?

[@tactical_statician]

Good analysis. I think Dorgu would be a good signing. He could become an Alphonso Davies type of profile for United. With Canada he plays as a LW/RW at Bayern he’s a LB/LWB. Either way we need 2 LB/LWB players. Alvaro should definitely be brought back. If Dorgu is valued at 40M then Kerkez should be pursued as he is Premier League proven.

Love your analysis bro ❤❤❤

[@tahirmuhammadsoba]

Great content as always

[@raultaylor3381]

I always enjoy your videos but I think that lack of drive in recovery runs can be trained out of him. Also you did not touch on his finishing abilities which seem to be decent

[@mercurialblonde]

What I don't like about your analysis here is that you are cherry picking moments from a limited number of games without respect to game state to build a narrative. For example, in one of the clips you wanted him to take a potential yellow or red card when they were down 3-1 in the 85th minute when he is Lecce's most important player. You also take him to task for not tracking back in a few instances--but I don't actually know if the manager wanted him to track back in those instances--sometimes players are instructed to stay up the pitch for the counter. The other thing I think your analysis lacked is that we are getting him for a wingback position in an Amorim system. Wingbacks in Amorim's system are not prized for their 1v1 defending when we are in a back 5--they are prized for pressing. So I would have liked to see analysis on his ability to step up in a press and make interceptions--not how he defends as a fullback--a position we don't even have currently. For any potential wingback we are looking at the key metrics need to be interceptions, crosses, ball carrying, and goals. Those are the most important areas in an Amorim wingback. The least important are: passing, and 1v1 duels. We aren't looking for a fullback that can attack. We are looking for a winger that can defend slightly. When we need pure defense we will just play Mazroui or Dalot at wingback.

[@peacekeepermoe]

So as a defender, he can score and we will concede a lot? Perfect, he'll fit right in at United.

[@Aarya-v5n]

Spending 40M on Dorgu already makes it difficult to turn it into a great signing, because of all the expectations from a Man United player. That aside, not wrt to the quality but wrt to "the profile", it is exactly our squad needs. Physical, quick, young, ball carrier and versatile who plays multiple positions. If he can develop more composure and tactical acumen, he could also feature as a LCB (like Dalot did against Rangers at RCB). He will be a utility player for sure, but the same would be an excellent signing if it was 25-30 M

[@farhadchaudhry]

40m euro is 33.6m gbp. Which isn't too expensive in today's climate. It's about what United should aim for per player maximum. No more GBP 50m+ players. Those kill the finances.

[@haroldsimarmsta750]

[@barixuka]

He's a good and versatile player but his price tag especially now that United's finances are in shambles makes it too much of a gamble. Just buy back Alvaro, who'd probably have better resale value and wait till the summer to get the perfect and preferred WB for the system.

[@cycyrilceefwesh3099]

[@United_Wings]

Too expensive for a 20 year old who doesn't have that much experience, Alvaro Fernandez is better value

[@stailenknife5453]

better value but different profile lacks PnP and 1v1 ability required for and amorim lwb

[@Twiggerize]

I think if Alvaro Fernandez was a player Amorim was keen on signing, we would 100% without a doubt trigger the buy back clause, as he's way cheaper. You can say that he's better value all you want, but Amorim clearly doesn't rate him since we're trying to sign a player in the same position, for £20m more.

[@assaulter2385]

I agree we should not overpay, but the problem with Alvaro is he is more of a fullback Good defencivly but not much in attack , we should search for other options

[@lancerevo9747]

​@@assaulter2385Alvaro is really good in attack actually. He makes all the forward runs you'd expect of an attacker and has technique and first touch to beat a press, and he's much, much better at passing then Dorgu.

[@Bob-f3x6w]

He is happy at Benfica.Hasn't ruled it out but sees Benfica as the team that is for him.

[@louisebune1628]

Is it possible that the Glazers have a connection or relationship with source of their initial loan used to buy the club? This £60m interest annually could well be going to the Glazers as well with the original debt remaining at a constant!!

[@StrykezMan09]

As a wing-back you need to 1. Be an outlet and consistently be on the receiving end of progressive passes. 2. Be on the ball on the ball a lot. 3. Have high pass count & accuracy. 4. Be a good dribbler / ball carrier. 5 Be able to beat your man and deliver early whipped crosses from deep or cut-backs from the by-line. From his FBREF numbers, it doesn't look he does any of those things. Unless our scouts like him for purely his pace and physicality, I really don't see why they want him otherwise especially at the reported price.

[@ideozublake8036]

i’m not a fan of this signing at all. we already have a handful of young players with ‘potential’. adding another one to it especially at a PRIORITY position isn’t ideal imo. and also we have ANOTHER young player with potential we’ve already signed arriving in the summer in Diego Leone who people seek to forget we’ve signed for that same LWB position. either get Ait Nouri or activate the buy back clause for Alvaro Fernandez would’ve been much better. then in the summer, man united go in hard for Theo Hernandez who will have a year left on his contract. but then again, if Dorgu arrives, i’ll back him

[@angeluth12]

Different analyst have different ways of looking at the player, I appreciate yours as well as the others. Your analysis covered aspects have not seen being mentioned by others, like he’s poor defensive contribution at times and a certain star boy tendency. I won’t disagree, but from the examples you showed there’s a tendency for mistakes and lack of concentration in the final 15 minutes of the game. Now the cause of these mistakes could be caused by tiredness (you can’t play in 3 positions during the same game at 20 and expect to be fresh), mental fatigue (his team being down in the scorecard and him having the pressure to be the one driving the team forward) or just pure lack of concentration and inability to understand the game (this is the biggest problem at Man United today). In my opinion based on the good things I’ve seen I’m under the impression that these mistakes are more the consequence of what’s asked of him during games and natural fatigue(physically and mental) making it difficult to be connected in the game from start to finish. He seems to be for this Lecce team what Bale was for Tottenham, he’s clearly their best player, is being played “everywhere”, and has the pressure to prove he’s the man in every game. So I’d say the bad I’ve seen from him doesn’t scary me, as it seems it’s more fruit of the context that he’s inability. I believe the coach and his team have analysed the player and understood where his strengths and weaknesses are, one thing I know from Amorim is he doesn’t usually buy players he has not analysed and seen their suitability for the team. Dorgu clearly ain’t worth 40M, I don’t defend Man United should step away from the deal but instead make an offer of something like 25M fixed(he’s real evaluation) + 15M add-ons (based on attainable objectives). I say this because in my opinion Dorgu should always be a young prospect to be developed but who can already be played and become important, and if I had the power to make things happens I would get Dorgu now and Rayan Ait Nouri in the summer (his contract will run out in 2026), both in a combined package of not more than 55/60M. For those suggesting Alvo Fernandez, I’m Portuguese, I follow the league closely, and I can tell you that he’s a very good player, but he isn’t yet the player Man United KZbin analysts are defending he is. He’s still very erratic with the ball and off the ball, physically he still struggles with players who are either fast, strong or know how to attack the space (he had the better of Yamal because Yamal is a technical winger who don’t tend to attack the space behind the left back or takes his game to the physical side), he clearly attacks better than he defends (he only learned how to defend this season), and his best attacking attributes are his pace and crosses. If I had to compare both I’d say they have different profiles, Fernandez is striving at Benfica because they played transitional football and his best games so far have been against big teams because of his ability to attack the space quickly and cross(his biggest strengths today) and he struggled in games where Benfica was playing positional football, Dorgu seems to have the ability to play in both ways and I see in him a higher ceiling, Fernandez profile is more suited to a team whom the style of play involves a lot of crossing and quick transitions or counter attacking football, like Bayern, Atlético, Real Madrid or Liverpool.
