Diogu Dallow has been at Manchester United for three and a half years and has finally made great strides after years of hardship. The Portuguese full-back is not among the manchester United champions of this time, he will certainly regret the postponement of the Premier League, because if the game is not postponed, he will have created a new milestone in his career - four consecutive premier league starts for Manchester United!
Previously, Dallow's highest number of consecutive appearances in the league was 3, unchanged from the current level. It was April 2019, and Dallow's appearance ended in a 4-0 away defeat to Everton. At Goodison Park, United players walked straight to the dressing room after the loss, with only Dalo and McTomine apologizing to the visiting fans.
However, in the two and a half years since, Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has only given Dalo two Premier League starts. The Portuguese genius was loaned to AC Milan for one season and after his return, the manager never arranged for him to start in the league. It wasn't until the Norwegians left school and Carrick beat Arsenal 3-2 at Manchester United that he made Dallow start in the Premier League for the first time since October 2019.
What Darlow needed was, first and foremost, an opportunity. So, he is the biggest beneficiary of Manchester United's change of manager. Because Ole Gunnar Solskjaer brought in 10,000-thansaka for a high price of £50 million, he had to be reused anyway. Even if Wan Bisaka defends better than attack, it is not suitable for United's tactics.
Dallow's proactive style was well received by the fans, with new coach Ralph Lonnick praising his performance: "Our full-back assists, possession of the ball on the flanks. So they almost play like wing-backs. The attacking performances of Alex and Diogu (Dalo) are excellent, and that's what I asked the full-backs to do when I played 4222."
Wan Bissaka is good at intercepting opponents' attacks with tackles, but Dallow not only assists better, but also presses more aggressively than he does, and in addition, the Portuguese international is also better than the English iron gate when nodding the ball after the closed defense. During Wan bissaka's time playing manchester United's main force, premier league opponents have been well aware that a cross from Luke Shaw's defence and sending the ball to the area between Wan bissaka and Lindelev is one of the killer skills for an effective attack on Manchester United.
In the Manchester United vs Arsenal match, when the Gunners opened the goal, Dalo moved forward and the header scramble rate reached 100%, showing tactical flexibility. In contrast, in the Champions League in Villarreal, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer arranged for Dalo to replace the banned Wan Bissaka, but asked him to stay in the rear, only to be hit by the yellow submarine attack core Danjuma, and the boss used the Portuguese as Wan Bissaka.
Just three weeks ago, Mourinho was considering bringing love Dallo back to Rome on a rent-and-buy basis. After spending £19 million to buy him back to Manchester United, Mourinho had predicted that he could become a right-back for the next 10 years, but his successor Ole Gunnar Solskjaer did not see it that way, and although Darrow miraculously reversed the Champions League at Manchester United and won the penalty with a long-range shot, solskjaer still did not appreciate him. Last year, luke Shaw was injured and Brandon Williams was banned, and it was thought that Dalo must have started at left-back, but the Manchester United manager chose Mensa, who had not played in more than 3 years.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has maintained a good relationship with Dallo, just like the former United manager and most players, but that doesn't mean he'll reuse you in the game, and Jesse Lingard is well aware of the difference. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer also wants to bring in Trippier, and he is not good at rotation, and the substitutes are basically not given opportunities. Fortunately for Dallow, the boss is now out of school and his fortunes at United have taken a turn for the worse, and Mourinho may not be able to get him again.
Sources close to Dalo told the Manchester Evening News that he was currently at the best moment of his Manchester United career. It is reported that Darrow said he loves Manchester United and has always hoped to succeed at Old Trafford.
Last season, Dalo got more playing opportunities at Milan and, importantly, he managed to stay out of injury. Since joining Manchester United, Darrow has been plagued by a meniscus injury, only making two appearances in the first four months, and since then, he has experienced three different injuries. However, today the Portuguese genius has been uninjured for almost 18 months.
That's what he learned in Milan. It is worth mentioning that in the year of playing in Italy, some Italian players traveled to Dubai during the Christmas period, and they returned to test positive for the new crown. Dalo did not take the trip and stayed in the gym at his apartment to train. At the time, Italy was the hardest hit in Europe, and Dalo saw the risks, and to this day, he avoids too much socializing and strives to stay away from the virus.
"There's no secret to it, it's difficult if you can't compete." "But our players' job is to be ready, I've been waiting for months, especially this season, when I get my chance on the pitch, I have to give everything, be ready," Darlow said. He seized the opportunity.
