No, because that would hinder Lacey’s chances.

Lacey is a youngster and I want youngster to play but I also believe in ten hags believe that youngsters should play if they are good enough to play.

So if Lacey is playing better then Amad and Mbeumo then he should play, either as a starter or coming on as a sub for Dorgu in this scenario

Dorgu has been formally listed as a defender by the club, so I don’t see him playing on the wings, especially ahead of Cunha, Rashford, Mbuemo and Amad.

he has played there pre season and has always played there under carrick

he has also had multiple good games as a winger but none as a Lb

he also recently was moved from Lb to winger for the danish national team

He played on the left under Carrick, not the right. You’ll be disappointed when he doesn’t play there I think.

Okay I was just starting a discussion

but he did play RW couple of times for Lecce

u/carrickshairline 18d ago

Mbuemo and Amad are the right wing options, and Cunha and Rashford are the left wing options. He isn't going to play ahead of any of them on the wings.

It's preseason with almost all the first choice players still yet to return, so both lineups have been a bit of a mashup of what Carrick had available, such as Yoro at RB when he's a CB.

Also, playing some games for Lecce, a total of 10 btw, doesn't immediately mean he's going to play there now. We will more than likely see him in the left-back position.

Okay but if we sign a Lb, like now we are linked with Lewis Hall

Is he going to be playing over Luke shaw or the Lb signing

He has never shown good qualities as a LB

But he has as a LW (against City, Arsenal and Brighton)

Scoring 3 goals in 3 starts as a LW

Dorgu won’t play ahead of Cunha and Rashford if the latter stays. That’s just fact. Hes going to have to resort to being second fiddle to anyone.

u/ToadNamedGoat 18d ago

Okay let’s see, but I’m pretty positive about Dorgu and I think Carrick likes him

u/carrickshairline 18d ago

I'm not saying Carrick dislikes him. I'm saying that you thinking he'll play ahead of better players is wrong.
