MUN vs FUL: Why don’t Dorgu and Mount play for Manchester United against Fulham?

Manchester United will take on Fulham at Old Trafford on Sunday as they aim to return to the top four of the Premier League.

After consecutive victories over Manchester City and Arsenal, head coach Michael Carrick turns his attention to the visitor from London.

But United will have to make do without the services of midfielder Mason Mount and left back Patrick Dorgu.

On Mount, Carrick said: «He had a bit of a knock in training. It’s nothing serious. We’re disappointed he’s not with us today but he’ll be back soon.»

Dorgu, who scored in the wins over City and Arsenal, is expected to be out until April after picking up a hamstring injury last Sunday.

«Pat will be out for a while. We’re still working on how long that will be,» Carrick said Friday.

«He’s had such a good few weeks and we weren’t sure if it was cramp or something more serious, but it looks more serious. Whether it’s a few weeks or longer, we’ll have to wait and see. Unfortunately, it’s something you have to work through in football.»
