Man Utd star urges teammates to ‘look at themselves’ after what’s been allowed to happen in recent weeks
Patrick Dorgu played an integral role in Manchester United clinching a point from their clash with Aston Villa on Sunday.
The Dane made his return to action after being sidelined since September, and came off the bench to score United’s equaliser to make it 4-4.

Dorgu only played for 24 minutes, but recorded two goal contributions, having also assisted Joshua Zirkzee for his late goal off the bench.
However, the result did leave United in the relegation zone, where they will remain for the next two weeks due to the international break.
They then face Liverpool away at Anfield when club action resumes, and it remains to be seen who will be in the dugout come kick-off, with Michael Carrick now on the verge of being relieved of his duties.
What Dorgu had to say post-Villa
Speaking post-match, Dorgu expressed his discontent at United’s current situation.
“I don’t feel happy – we are in a bad situation. We need to fight together to get out of it. Draw [is] better than a loss, but we had the better opportunities,” said the 22-year-old.
“Everyone needs to look at themselves and ask if they are doing enough. We need to fight for the manager, for the club and get out of this together.
“Of course it hurts [to be in the relegation zone]. There are a lot of games, and we need everyone to come back sharp from international break and start getting wins.”
The full-back, who was deployed as a winger on several occasions last season, has featured only seven times this term due to injury, so he’ll be hoping he can have a positive impact when playing an increased role later this month.
