Diogo Dalot finds a silver lining in Man United’s frustrating 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest – Man United News And Transfer News



Manchester United defender Diogo Dalot has insisted that it’s evident he and his teammates are improving and heading in the right direction, despite the defeat to Nottingham Forest on Tuesday evening.

Former United forward Anthony Elanga scored the only goal of the contest to secure Forest all three points at the City Ground.

United controlled possession and created several chances but struggled to convert them. After the final whistle, Ruben Amorim attributed the defeat to his players’ lack of ruthlessness in front of goal.

Amorim also insisted that there were evident signs of improvement and this was echoed by Dalot.

Dalot spoke to MUTV and explained, “I think we did enough to win the game. We had very good moments, created a lot of chances, and I think enough chances to win this game.”

“It’s the price sometimes you pay in this type of level, in these types of competitions. Sometimes a little distraction, lack of focus, can be really decisive, and today it was.”

“Overall, I think we are improving. We are playing better, controlling more games in possession and without possession, so [that is] something positive that we can take for the coming games.”

He continued, “But in the end, we need to start being more consistent in terms of results and winning more games.”

“If we want to be competitive in the future, we have to start behaving like this and we have to perform like this. But these little bits will have to come first if you want to compete for the Premier League and the biggest titles, we have to start creating these habits and they try to be consistent on that, and then I think the results will come by themselves.”

“We still have to suffer a little bit, but in terms of getting out of this situation and trying to improve, I think we are on the right track.”

United are back in action on Sunday when they host cross-town rivals Manchester City at Old Trafford.

Looking ahead to the derby, Dalot emphasised that the only acceptable outcome is to win.
