‘Mind Blowing’ ‘Could Be The Next Gareth Bale’ – Fans on Social Media Excited By United Starlet’s Display

Manchester United fullback Diogo Dalot is certainly making up for lost time with his most recent performances for the Red Devils.

The Portuguese defender was excellent against Fulham on Saturday, living up to the praise given to him by his own manager.

Jose Mourinho has backed Dalot to become the club’s first choice right-back for the next ten years, and on this weekend’s display, not many would bet against him. Here is what some supporters were saying about the 19-year-old on Twitter:


Dalot missed the start of the season after having to undergo knee surgery. On his return, the injury curse struck again after picking up a knock during the international break back in September.

However, after recovering full fitness, the 19-year-old has begun to show what he is all about after delivering some superb crosses in the comfortable 4-1 win over the Cottagers.

Defensively he will need to improve, as shown by some difficult moments against Arsenal last week, but the future certainly looks very bright for the teenager.
