Manchester United was forced to do things hard on Wednesday evening while they were beating Ipswich Town 3-2 in the Premier League.
This was mainly due to Patrick Dorgu, the winter signature serving a horror performance during his first league departure from Old Trafford. A lamentable mixture with goalkeeper Andre Onana saw the defender of 29.2 million pounds sterling offensive Jaden Philogène the opening goal of the match, before his red card just before the whistle at the half-time of the Red Devils to play the rest of the match with ten men.
By entering the half-time, all the square after a more questionable defense, United was lucky that Dorgu’s dismissal did not give them more points to Old Trafford. The head of Harry Maguire just after the restart offered them their heads, which they held until the final whistle.
The victory offered Ruben Amorim and his players a well -necessary respite, but the Portuguese coach will now be unoriented for several games.
Dorgu’s slit on Omari Hutchinson was rightly punished with a red card after the Var and Denmark international intervention will now serve an interior suspension of three games.
Dorgu’s ban takes place at FA Cup, which means that the 20 -year -old will be absent for the duel of this Sunday with Fulham to Old Trafford in the fifth round. However, the suspension is not applicable in Europe, the young person available for both legs in the Europa League in the last 16 games against Real Sociedad.
After their first step with the Basque outfit next Thursday, the Red Devils return to the first league action several days later at home Arsenal. Dorgu will be absent for the visit of the failed artillerymen, who have lagged behind in the title race after disappointing results against West Ham United and Nottingham Forest.
The second stage against Real Sociedad follows before the fourth game of United against City Leicester This season. The Red Devils won the three previous duels this quarter and will aim to stack more misery on the former Ruud Van Nistelrooy employee.

United is not fortunate enough to have options in large midfield / wings positions, with the release of Tyrell Malacia’s loan in the winter window and Luke Shaw’s injury limiting the possibilities of Amorim. Amad Diallo also worked in the role of this term, but will pass the rest of the campaign in the treatment room.
Dorgu played right and left from his signature for United, but more easily presented on the latter. Wesair Mazraoui is the obvious candidate to replace him in the next games, the versatile Moroccan having been used to fill the shortcomings of this term.
Diogo Dalot could also move to the left flank in the short term, while the large Alejandro Garnacho would be a more risky selection.
