Manchester United, which was on an upward trajectory, had a sudden fall. Patrick Dorgu (22), who was leading the winning streak as Michael Carrick (45) interim coach "the prince," was out of power due to injury.
Britain's "The Athletic" reported on the 27th (Korea Standard Time) that "Manchester United will not be able to use Dorgu, a key resource, for the time being."
"Dorgu's detailed scan test immediately after the last game confirmed that he suffered serious damage to his hamstring," the media said. "It is expected to take about 10 weeks to return to the ground."
Dorgu's departure is more than just an injury for Manchester United. This is because Dorgu was the key to injecting new energy into Manchester United, which has been stagnant recently. Since Carrick's recent appointment, he has won two consecutive league games by shaking the net in both league games. His strong activity and aggressive breakthrough not only opened the door for offense, but also his ability to participate in defense was very high in tactical value.
Local fans and media praised Dorgu as the "second Park Ji-sung." This is because he plays with the number 13 used by Manchester United legend Park Ji-sung, and his dedicated playing style throughout the ground with tireless physical strength reminded him of Park Ji-sung's nickname, "Oxygen Tank."
In particular, fans were enthusiastic, saying, "Carrick is seeing Park Ji-sung from Dorgu," as Carrick, who played with Park Ji-sung during his active days, used a tactic to maximize the merits of Dorgu. However, Dorgu's long-term injury stopped this pleasant parallel theory for a while.
Manchester United, which is seeking to leap to the top, is on alert. This is because he lost his team's "engine" in the second half of the race, where a tight schedule awaits. There are not enough resources to replace Dorgu's explosive mobility and airlift balance right now. Coach Carrick is in a situation where it is inevitable to modify his tactics.
Coach Carrick's worries about how to fill the vacancy of Dorgu, who was leading Manchester United's rise, deepened.
