Dalot There was a moment towards the end of the first half in Melbourne when Diogo Dalot made one of those infield runs that Erik ten Hag has been demanding of his Manchester United full-backs.

But Dalot didn't cut inside Jadon Sancho and offering a passing option. He ran directly infield and kept going, to the point that when a cross was deflected from a corner United's right-back was stood next to Anthony Martial at centre forward.

This was a moment when the ball didn't find its way to Dalot, but might be the best example of how well he's taken to Ten Hag's demands of his full-backs.

The approach might be bad news for Aaron Wan-Bissaka, but Dalot has gone from under pressure towards the end of last season to looking like he might have a real future under the new manager.
