Diogo Dalot admits Manchester United바카라s players cannot shirk responsibility for their shortcomings after an underwhelming second season under Erik ten Hag continued with Saturday바카라s 2-2 draw at Bournemouth. (More Football News)
United twice trailed at the Vitality Stadium and were fortunate to escape with a point following a poor first half in which the impressive hosts wasted a series of chances.
While Bruno Fernandes바카라 double prevented defeat in Dorset, Ten Hag바카라s seventh-placed side face an uphill task to secure European qualification and also avoid the club바카라s worst Premier League finish.
Defender Dalot believes battling back on the south coast was an encouraging sign but concedes the team have significant room for improvement going into their final six top-flight fixtures.
바카라The big positive is we fought always for the result,바카라 the Portuguese told United바카라s website.
바카라That hunger of trying to fight until the end is something we have been showing this season.
바카라It바카라s been a positive thing, in my opinion, although we have a lot of things we should improve, as a team, as individuals.
바카라There are some things we obviously need to take responsibility (for), we cannot hide from it.
바카라The standards are always high at this club so we have to be really, really accountable for these types of mistakes that we are making as a team that we cannot (make) if we want to fight for the big trophies.바카라
United, who have never finished below seventh position in the Premier League era, are 10 points adrift of the Champions League positions following a fourth league outing without a win.
Dominic Solanke and Justin Kluivert capitalised on sloppy defending to score for the Cherries but Fernandes바카라 volleyed equaliser ensured the visitors were only a goal behind at the break.
United바카라s captain converted a 65th-minute spot-kick in a more even second period to again level before his side breathed a sigh of relief when Bournemouth were denied an added-time penalty by VAR when Willy Kambwala바카라s foul on Ryan Christie was adjudged to have been outside the box.
United next weekend face a Wembley FA Cup semi-final against Championship club Coventry before returning to top-flight action at home to bottom side Sheffield United on April 24.
바카라We are already focusing on a big opportunity for us to be again in the FA Cup final and it바카라s a massive competition we want to win,바카라 said Dalot, who was an unused substitute in the 2-1 loss to Manchester City in last year바카라s final.
바카라We know the feeling of being there, now we want the feeling of being there again and winning it. Next week we are going to have a huge opportunity to be there again.바카라
Bournemouth were denied a first league double over the 20-time English champions on the back of December바카라s thumping 3-0 victory at Old Trafford.
Striker Solanke became the Cherries바카라 record scorer in a single Premier League season with his 17th strike this term, moving clear of former team-mate Joshua King바카라s tally in the 2016-17 campaign.
바카라For the last few games I wanted to get that next goal,바카라 he told Bournemouth바카라s website.
바카라It바카라s a great achievement and I바카라m over the moon with that record. Hopefully I can get a few more towards the end of the season.
바카라Sorry Kingy about that 바카라 records are there to be broken!바카라
Speaking about the late VAR drama, Solanke added: 바카라I only managed to see it back on the big screen in the stadium and it looked like it was on the line. It definitely could have been a penalty.
바카라I바카라m a bit gutted not to get the win.바카라
