Dalot was not to blame for that goal you conceded last night.
He was trying to cover 3 positions and players at the same time because others were not doing their job

Why isnt Sancho getting stick for not tracking back and going with the goal scorer?

Why isnt Maguire getting blame for being completely out of position and going towards the ball too much instead of staying in position and staying with with a man ?

I've seen Elanga getting blame for not tracking back for the goal.

Dalot was completely lost, but it was Macguires Kamikaze play in midfield that led to the goal.

Yeah but he had his eye on 2 players trying to decide which player to go mark/close down and then when the ball goes over his head and he turns round there is a third person waiting to head it In

Where are the 2 centre backs in all that helping him out ?
They are at fault more than Dalot

Elanga didn't track back because he was trying to get a non-existant foul. Ronaldo didn't track back because he was complaining about that foul. Fred didn't track back because he was taken out in the midfield. Maguire stepped up and was too late coming back into his position. Dalot lacked awareness to see Maguire returning and Lodi running in behind him. Too many moving pieces to blame one person :hubie:

Tbh that could describe a lot of goals United have conceded this season.

United are just shyt at defending as a team unit. It's just easier for fans to blame individuals to help push their agendas on the players they already don't like. :manny:

We conceded that goal similar to the ones we conceded during the Liverpool 5 nil.


And Fred got fouled in the build up. But that goal could've been stopped.
