Dorgu performed well across his 45-minute debut on the right. He dovetailed with Amad Diallo ahead of him and dropped back when needed to protect Leny Yoro. He was a useful, outlet out wide for a team that can be hesitant to take the initiative.

Ruben Amorim made a bizarre claim when asked why he decided to play Manchester United newbie Patrick Dorgu on the right-hand side instead of his preferred position at left-wing-back. United needed a last-minute Harry Maguire header to edge past Leicester City on Friday night, with the Red Devils below par for much of the contest.

Ruben Amorim admitted there was a key part of Manchester United's come-from-behind FA Cup fourth-round win over Leicester City that did not sit right with him. However, despite many claiming Harry Maguire's stoppage-time winner should have been ruled offside, his gripe with the game came much earlier in the match.
