I might owe Dalot an apology. Still prefer Wan-Bissaka but that block off Bowen was absolutely outstanding.

He’s got far more dimensions to his game than AWB. If he could gain a bit more composure I’d happily lose AWB tbh.

ports with the wealth of talent at portugal he starts every game for them. a very good player imo. if people want to judge defenders based on mistakes here and there, there is not a single defender that will past that test.

Dalot is twice the player AWB is. The only thing AWB has over Dalot is his excellent one on one tackling. Otherwise Dalot is a far superior player in every other aspect of football.

He is way in front of AWB, it’s clear ETH thinks the same too…. Is Dalot a great modern day full back no, but AWB is even less so.

I know unruly, bit different but I kinda like my defenders capable of defending.

I don't disagree Ports. The perfect fullback would be a blend of Dalot and AWB.

Jesus he makes one great interception and has a half decent game he's Cafu now.
He's a bang average full back just like AWB.
Very poor defensively and constantly out of position.
I think this is one of the positions that Ten Hag will look at in the summer if he is still in the job.

Ahmaf who Are all the full backs that dalot is keeping out of the perusal team. Who do they play for? I'm not sure they have a wealth of talent sitting not in the squad?

Sim, watch games and try to remove emotion out of it. No one is saying that he is Cafu, that is just you making stuff up.

Unruly - i do watch the games every week. He's a poor full back.
If you think Dalot is the answer at full back then we are bang in trouble.
Stop looking at things through your rose tinted red glasses.

Tumble

I don't know who else there is in terms of right back options for Portugal. I rate Dalot personally and nothing to do with that block. Very good on the ball, touch, control, passing and good pace and chips in a few goals. I can live with the occasional defensive errors, they all do it.

Simo

He gets up the pitch and when we lose possession he can get caught out of position. Its part the risk all teams take when they push their full backs up the pitch and into midfield areas, which seems to be the new trend. Its more to do with us being sloppy and losing possession than Dalot being out of position imo.

Everyone has different opinions which i respect.
Personally i think he is bang average and the right back position needs looking at in the summer.
I would keep Dalot as a squad player and sell AWB.

Ken, Cancelo, Semedo and Pereira, Cedric and João Mario are all players who have represented Portugal playing RB over the last three years.

Cancelo is an excellent full back and was brilliant for City for a few years. He fell out with Pep and has since been loaned to Barcelona where he's first choice.

The fact that Dalot is currently keeping him out the national side is pretty impressive to be fair. Portugal are in a similar position to England where they have 3 or 4 international quality RB's. Dalot being one of them.
