Man Utd have “incredible” defender out on loan outscoring Rashford
Despite finishing third in the Premier League and winning the EFL Cup the previous season, Manchester United has struggled with consistency this year. They have lost eight of their 16 games thus far.

But United’s problems on the left side of defense could have been mitigated if they had held onto a player who is enjoying a fantastic season thus far.
updated on Manchester United injuriesManchester United played Fulham at Craven Cottage over the weekend. Head coach Ten Hag started Diogo Dalot at left-back while Aaron Wan-Bissaka returned to the team, lining up on the right, where he felt most comfortable.
This season, a wide range of players—including Reguilon, Dalot, Victor Lindelof, and even Sofyan Amrabat—have alternated in as left defender. Lindelof has actually made more appearances in this role this season than any other player.

In the meanwhile, backup left-back Malacia has been out of action for the past 110 days due to an unidentified ailment, but according to the Manchester Evening News, the Dutchman had knee surgery in the summer, which kept him out of the team’s preseason trip to the United States. Malacia is back in training, but it’s unclear when he’ll be back.

The fullback’s valuation climbed to £10.4m at one point during the 2019–20 season, according to Transfermarkt.
Williams, sadly, was unable to maintain his place in the starting eleven after 2020 and swiftly lost favor at the Theatre of Dreams. He briefly played on loan at Norwich City during the Canaries’ two seasons in the top division.
Despite this, Williams has regained his form and has contributed significantly to Ipswich’s spectacular Championship debut. With two goals in ten games, he has scored more than United’s faltering £375k-per-week star Marcus Rashford. One of these goals began in his own half and culminated in a magnificent solo run against Preston North End. “Incredible” is how head coach McKenna described the effort.
