Diogo Dalot has been one of Manchester United’s stand-out performers this season.
The Portuguese full-back has been an ever-present force in Erik ten Hag‘s first team squad over the course of the 23/24 campaign – and also one of the most consistent performing stars at Old Trafford.
Often scrutinized in the past, Dalot has won over many of his haters this season, showing he’s an integral part of the setup around Carrington.
His recent opinion on Manchester United legend Nemanja Vidic has also put him further in the good books of United supporters.
Diogo Dalot really rates Nemanja Vidic
In an interview with GOAL, posted to TikTok, Dalot is asked to speak when he hears a football player who is better than United icon Vidic. The names start rolling off:
Jamie Carragher… William Saliba… Sami Hyppia… Kolo Toure… Laurent Koscielny… John Stones… Thiago Silva… John Terry… Virgil van Dijk… Vincent Kompany…
Dalot stays silent throughout, then replies with: “All the way. Vidic, top player.”
Manchester United fans love this from Diogo Dalot
Fans of the Red Devils absolutely loved this from Dalot, taking to X to share their thoughts on the clip.
A first says: ‘Dalot knows who the greatest CB in the Premier League is’
‘Bro didn’t bat an eyelid. No competition for the Serbian warlord’ and ‘Absolutely correct I could have also stayed quiet’ two more say.
A fourth adds: ‘Terry and Kompany and maybe Carragher were all top players but the rest were not. Vidic was class. Agree with Dalot.’
‘That’s my boy Diogo United through and through,’ another adds.
A final states: ‘That is why I love Dalot, he loves man utd. We need to sign more players like these who would give their 200% for the club and don’t want just money.’
Dalot has definitely got more brownie points from Manchester United for this take. Old Trafford faithful are impressed by his ball knowledge and loyalty to the Red Devils.
