Liverpool fans joke Amad Diallo is their ‘best defender’ after horror Man Utd miss

Liverpool fans have joked that Manchester United’s wing wizard Amad Diallo has been their best defender on Sunday after he managed to clear a glorious chance for the Red Devils

Liverpool fans have joked Amad Diallo is their best defender.

Manchester United made the short trip to Merseyside on Sunday, despite the heavy snowfall, and they came close to breaking the deadlock when Diogo Dalot found some space down the left wing. Dalot picked up his head and saw an onrushing Amad.

Andy Robertson had been left in the dust as Dalot attempted to pick out Dalot, who, with the goal gaping, managed to head the ball backwards and out of danger. “Incredible defensive header by Amad,” one Liverpool fan joked.

“Amad with the classic play injured when you’ve ruined a great chance,” a second said. While a third shared: “Incredible clearance by Amad Diallo. Liverpool were in big trouble there!”

And another added: “Amad has been our best defender today!”

Amad has been one of the standout players for the Red Devils after Amorim took over in November. And the Ivorian apologised to Red Devils fans on New Years Day about their form in recent seasons.

“A very difficult year, apologising is not enough. But you have supported us and continued to do so throughout all this time. Thank you.”
