The footballer made his long-awaited debut for Manchester United and fans were thrilled

Manchester United's new signing, Patrick Dorgu, made his debut for the club in their recent match against Leicester City, and while his appearance was brief, it has certainly generated plenty of buzz among the club's supporters.

Dorgu, who joined United from Lecce in the January transfer window, started the match on the right-hand side of defense. The young Ghanaian impressed fans with his athleticism and technical ability, winning more duels than any other player on the pitch in the first half.

However, much to the surprise of fans, Dorgu was substituted at half-time. This decision by manager Rubén Amorim has sparked a heated debate among supporters, with many questioning why the promising young defender was taken off so early.

Social Media Reacts

Social media has been flooded with reactions from Manchester United fans following Dorgu's debut. Many have praised the young defender's performance, highlighting his impressive physical attributes and technical ability.

Some of the most common comments on platforms like X include:

• "Patrick Dorgu won more duels (6) than any other player on the pitch in his first 45 minutes as a Manchester United player."
• "Amorim, what are you thinking? Dalot is still on the pitch while taking off Patrick Dorgu is an unforgivable crime, honestly."
• "The best player for Manchester United in the first half was Patrick Dorgu. Ruben Amorim substituted him at half-time. Omo!"
• "We signed Patrick Dorgu to play on the left. They put him on the right and he still performed. Why take him off at half-time? This club is a mess."

What does the future hold for Dorgu?

Dorgu's impressive debut has generated plenty of excitement among Manchester United fans. However, it remains to be seen whether he will be able to establish himself as a regular first-team player. The competition for places in the Manchester United defense is fierce, and it will be up to Dorgu to prove his worth to manager Rubén Amorim.
