Dorgu’s reminder is still relevant
Patrick Dorgu spoke ahead of Manchester United’s clash with Arsenal about his excellent recent form.
Dorgu said that people forget he is only 21, amid criticism he received early in the season.
The Dane was called out by his own manager Ruben Amorim, who said that he was too anxious whenever he was in possession.
Dorgu has put that behind him, playing on instinct, shown by his stunning half-volley at The Emirates, and his two impressive goals against City and Newcastle.
His reminder is still relevant despite his success. Dorgu is only 21 and has a lot of room to develop. As Zirkzee points out, he could be ‘special’.
