Diogo Dalot or Aaron Wan-Bissaka? That was not a sensible question throughout the first months of Manchester United's season.

Dalot was the first-choice right-back and he was arguably the finest player in his position in the Premier League. He enjoyed an excellent start to the new campaign, whilst Wan-Bissaka was forgotten and sidelined with a back injury.
