Both positive and negative aspects: "Carrick" speaks about "Dorgu" in two ways after leading Man United to a 3-2 away win over Arsenal.
On 26 Jan 2026 GMT+7, Michael Carrick, interim manager of Manchester United, spoke about Patrick Dorgu, the talented left winger, after he scored another Premier League goal in their latest 3-2 away victory over Arsenal.
Patrick Dorgu, the Danish international, has significantly improved his performance, helping Manchester United remain unbeaten in six consecutive Premier League matches (three wins, three draws), moving them up to fourth place in the standings and firmly in contention for a UEFA Champions League spot.
Michael Carrick praised Patrick Dorgu, who has scored two goals in his last two appearances (three goals total for Manchester United), saying, "Pat is a key player for us. It's clear he has scored two goals already."
"In terms of threat, strength, and quality, he has performed excellently on the flank alongside Luke Shaw against two teams that gave us a lot of trouble."
"I'm very happy for him because the two goals he scored were very different. It's great to see him smiling and enjoying himself."
However, the Man United manager also mentioned that Patrick Dorgu was substituted in the 81st minute due to what appeared to be a muscle cramp, saying, "It was clear he left the field with cramp. Hopefully, it’s not serious. It's hard to say right now; we have to wait and see. I hope it’s not too severe."
