Marcel Sabitzer Sends Three ‘Word’ Message To Man Utd Star

Manchester United defeated Manchester City to win the FA Cup, after losing last year’s final.

Lisandro Martinez, Antony Santos and Marcel Sabitzer were all ruled out of last year’s final. United ended up declining the chance to sign Sabitzer permanently.

A year on, Sabitzer is heading to the Champions League final with Borussia Dortmund, after joining them last summer. While Manchester United are now 2024 FA Cup champions.

Marcel Sabitzer hails Man Utd star

There may be a few Manchester United players watching next week’s Champions League final, to see how Sabitzer and Jadon Sancho get on.

This week, it was Sabitzer watching United, and he was taken with one Manchester United player, who has been non-stop throughout the season.

The Austrian responded to a message from Diogo Dalot, who had penned on social media: “Manchester United, you will never die.”

Sabitzer had a simple message to pay his respect to Dalot, writing: “Machine”.

Dalot outstanding once again

Diogo Dalot was filling in at left-back again, with Manchester United dealing with ongoing injuries keeping Luke Shaw and Malacia out.

Against City he was tireless once again, staying mostly in his own half, and doing everything that was required of him defensively.

• 100% Tackles Won (2/2)
• 7 Clearances
• 5 Recoveries
• 1 Interceptions
• 2 Successful Dribbles

The Portugal international has made exactly 50 appearances for Manchester United this season, 48 of which have been starts.

He has been absolutely essential, the one defender who has managed to stay fit throughout the campaign. His consistency and reliability at the back have been a cornerstone of the team’s defensive solidity. Despite the various challenges and injuries that have plagued other players, his form and fitness have provided a much-needed stability. His presence in the lineup has become almost a given, with his defensive skills, leadership qualities, and ability to read the game making him indispensable.

Furthermore, his contributions have not been limited to just his defensive duties. He has also chipped in with crucial goals and assists, proving to be a vital part of the team’s attacking plays as well. His ability to contribute both defensively and offensively has made him one of the standout performers for Manchester United this season.

Sabitzer’s description of him as a ‘machine’ is well earned. He consistently demonstrates unparalleled stamina and work ethic on the field, making it clear why teammates admire his relentless drive.

Dalot’s ability to maintain top-level performance throughout this season and stay completely injury free considering the number of injuries United encountered this season was remarkable.
