Ralf Rangnick lays out some areas where Diogo Dalot can improve.

The Portuguese defender was handed the Man of the Match for his performance in the 3-1 win over Brentford on Wednesday.

Dalot is expected to play against the Hammers as Aaron Wan-Bissaka is still recovering from his illness.

Rangnick lauded the defender for his abilities going forward and also laid out the areas where he should improve.

“Offensively, he has a lot of assets,” said Rangnick of Dalot.

“He did well (against Brentford). He is somebody who can deliver crosses from the wing, he is also able to take on players in one on one situations.

“The areas where he can still improve is obviously in his defensive work. He is not much of a defensive full-back, but more offensive. This is normal, there are quite a lot of full-backs in other clubs where it is the same.

“Quite a few of those formerly played as wingers, and so far with the developments since I’ve been here with Diogo and Alex Telles, I am happy. They get more gametime right now, so I am happy to have those two players available.

“Offensively, both of them have their strengths and their assets but defensively, there is still some space for improvement.”
