Patrick Chinazaekpere Dorgu able to play various positions according to Carrick

“I think he can do both,” the boss said.

“He was immense last week. His work rate and the way he plays the position, his general play was something we’re really pleased about.

“I wouldn’t want to pin him down, because I think he can do both.

“Certainly attacking-wise, and that threat, he was pretty impressive last week.”

Arsenal away is the next test for United and Dorgu, with the league leaders still unbeaten at home in all competitions this term.

Carrick has previous with Arteta, beating the Spaniard and his side at Old Trafford when a caretaker in December 2021, but he doesn’t think that result will have any bearing on Sunday’s encounter.
