The duo fought tirelessly in the second half of last season and during pre-season to become Ten Hag's first-choice right-back. After Wan-Bissaka got the nod at the start of the season, Dalot soon reclaimed top spot in the pecking order. Wan-Bissaka has missed each of United's last nine matches, meaning Dalot has had a free run at right-back. As a result of Luke Shaw's and Tyrell Malacia's ongoing absences, United are currently without a senior left-back, meaning Victor Lindelof and Sofyan Amrabat have deputised in recent weeks. The Portuguese ace has played at left-back several times under Ten Hag, often carrying out the duty with minimal fuss.
