Frimpong seems an upgrade on Dalot rather than AWB who's attributes still remain unique and unmnatched
@nomanahmed9880

I agree.. especially if you keep in mind recent weeks where Dalot was absolutely rinsed by Saint maximus and then Awb came in second half and totally shut him up...I think if we are going for attacking fullback like frimpong then we should definitely keep AWB instead of dalot..if we are going for a solid defensive fullback like a Jurien Timber then yeah we should stick with Dalot.. depends on who we are planning to sign offcorse
If he is as good as you say then buy him. If he is like Hakimi then he is something special
fantastic video, people questioning his defending is very valid but he is extremely young and intelligent, he can become good at defending with time and training in a different system, i’d like him at united because he would offer what mazraoui did at ajax by being a flying fullback that puts cutbacks into the box for players to score and he would improved our right hand side in terms of creation, speed, ball progression and attacking ability, which is what we lack so much at united since our left hand side has always been much stronger compared to our right side in recent years

unpopular opinion - keep wan bissaka, buy Frimpong & sell dalot. while dalot had a good season pre-world cup, i’m still nowhere near convinced. same for awb post-world cup i’m still skeptical but there are matches tailor made for a defensive right back and awb excels massively in those. the contrast would be interesting to see

Keep Dalot and AWB AND buy a fiercely attacking right full back.... AWB can be converted to a right sided CB in a 3 man defence in a 3 4 3 This way he can be used as a defensive FB also when looking to close out games
@utdspiritf1virk758
Жыл бұрын
Why would we change the system so 3 right backs can play. We need to sell one or keep them all and manage their game time each which would be very hard. Wan cannot play cb, he needs the by line for his tackles and would be a massive aerial weakness especially back post and I don’t think he would be good enough in passing out of the back and driving the ball out of the back, love wan but I don’t think cb is for him, I don’t think he’s a versatile player like other players in the squad, plus the 3-4-3 system seems to have been found out, teams are easily playing through it and exposes the weak midfield, we already have a strong midfield when all players are fit so why would we want to make it worse.
It looks like AWB will be the one sacrificed to bring in Frimpong, but I think that is a MASSIVE mistake. 😩 AWB has been far better this half of the season in both attack and defence, Dalot has been better in midfield, but it's not like he's a Cancelo/Zinchenko kind of player who is great in possession, he's just decent. 😕 I'd rather have Frimpong for when we are expected to win games, and AWB for when we are under the cosh. ⚖️

I hope ten hag realizes this. Dalot is okay in build up play but average in both defence and attack, he gets done very easily as well and delivery is just bad. Awb can literally lock down a whole side of the pitch and imo is just better overall and is more aggressive.

Exactly! How can you even trust Dalot and Frimpong as your right backs😭 With Dalot we've conceded 7 against Liverpool, 6 against City, 4 against Brentford But we've not conceded more than 3 with Aaron! The only game we even conceded 3 was the Arsenal one! Lately with Dalot a cleansheet had become a myth but with Aaron you are very sure if you don't win there's a cleansheet

I'd keep AWB over Dalot as provides more variety if signing frimpong or Davies. That being said people saying AWB is the best defensive RB need to chill. He may be the best 1 on 1 RB, but his positioning, ball watching etc. Let's him down. Whoever ETH keeps I have trust he can coach to excellence.
One thing I'm worried about is that it seems like he's replacing Wan-Bissaka. Dalot isn't very defensive either, so United could be very open at right back next season.
I would like to see Frimprong at United simply because the right wing has been a big problem for United. Even with the arrival of Anthony and Sancho, those 2 are inconsistent in their attacking play and shy's away from running at their man. Frimprong would give Sancho much needed speed and support by overlapping runs when Sancho drops into central pockets. When playing with Anthony, Frimprong would provide additional width. AWB can then be the cover for Frimprong should we decide to attack more down the left depending on the tactics. Not to mention, I'd like to see Dalot on the left competing with Malacia with Shaw pushed to centre back thereby replacing Maguire, freeing up some funds for other positions. This move makes sense, but United's no 1 and 2 targets must be a striker and goalkeeper this Summer.
Hahaha dave didn't even mention dalot. No way he burying his boy

Nah Dalot x Frimpong together on the right flank is the dream!!!
Good ol' Jeremie
We shoukd buy both timber and Frimpong . Timber could be Maguire replacement and play as defensive fullback. Dalot could supplement as LB like Frimpong also Timber, Frimpong, Malacia and Timber would be good options with Shaw.
This January is so important for Manchester United and we must sign and sell players! Casemiro varane sancho and martial are musts to go as their wage is so high and we should also be trying to let go of Antony and Scott as I just don’t believe in them and it’s really the Last chance in Scott’s favour any way to get some ok cash out of them Onto signings we must sign a cb and todibo is perfect. I think dalot has a very bright future playing as a rb moving into midfield like Trent and have todibo covering the wide areas behind him is just perfect. Inacio will be great for the summer Onto midfield and I still have high hopes for mount. Like he has barely been giving an opportunity due to Injury and just are bad form but mason has so much potential to be that eriksen replacement. However I feel like we are missing that sort of Fred player, plays the big games and just makes us much better defensively and that’s where Andre comes in but not for that role. Andre is a steal and we must get him and in the bigger games I would like to see Mainoo in that Fred role as Mainoo is so so so so so good and can rly play anywhere and as much as he will be an elite 6 he can very well put an solid performance at number 8 to solidify the team On the right wing there should only be one option and that is frimpong. This guy is an attacking beast. However as a rb I do feel he will get caught out defensively but for leverkusion if you go on sofa score on some of there games frimpong actually has the highest average position. I believe he could be an elite winger and also with ten hag wanting to be an incredible transition team then he needs a 3/5 back system to use in certain games and frimpong let’s you do this And finally guirassy is a no brainier to compete with hojlund and hojlund needs time to develop. Like maybe some games hojlund gets game time on the wing or something just let him grow as he is in a new league and still so young but Man U fans should be so excited for big Rasmus Knowing us we will sign deli ali on a 6 month loan and that’s it 🤣
Tbh, I’ll keep AWB and get rid of Dalot
Dont forget Frimpong played with Sancho at Man City. Antony and Sancho will thrive with Frimpong. Frimpong if comfortable as LB., could takeover from shaw, who I think should be Martinez's competition as LCB.
Buy him but sell dalot over wan bissaka
Would be a good move if he comes to United but lately it seems like United are just doing the scouting job for other clubs so we will wait and see about it
Will it blend?
isnt it best for awb to stay as he gives the option of a defensive RB...
We need Andre trindade and vitor roque
Ngl I think Frimpong will stay at Leverkusen for at least 1 more season before he moves on to bigger and better things because I don’t thinkJ Leverkusen will want to lose him yet and I think he needs about 1 more year of development before a massive career move like Utd, Barca or Inter
he can be a good replacement for Dalot than AWB
Letting go of AWB would be a major mistake
3 other/cheaper right backs we should look at; Sugawara (AZ) van Ewijk (Herenveen) and Gocholeishvili (Donetsk)

Am I the only one that's happy with Dalot and AWB as our two RBs? Ofc Frimpong is an upgrade on both, but Dalot was great until AWB came back and then he fell off, and AWB has been decent too. 24 and 25 are still both reasonably young and they have about two more years until they reach prime years.

dalot seems to be statistically a much better attacking outlet on the left. Considering his age we could look to move on from Malacia (after one season i know) and keep Dalot to compete with shaw while bringing in Frimpong to play RB with AWB. We still have the ability to play Dalot RB if needed or shaw at LCB. Makes for a pretty flexible back line
Dear United fan we can have Frimpong, AWB and Dalot we just have to sell Brandon Williams. Having 2 young defender then next year buy Theo Hernandez after selling Tellez having great 3 options
I think I'd prefer Dumfries because he can play at centre back as well as at right back.
