Patrick Dorgu has vowed to continue making the attacking runs that Ruben Amorim brought him to Manchester United to produce after impressing in Thursday night's 4-1 Europa League win over Real Sociedad.
United cruised into the quarter-finals of the competition with a comprehensive victory over the Spanish outfit, inspired by a Bruno Fernandes hat-trick. His treble and a late strike from Diogo Dalot secured a 5-2 win aggregate win for Amorim's side.
United were initially made to work for their spot in the last eight after falling 1-0 down after just ten minutes when Mikel Oyarzabal converted a penalty.

United came roaring back just six minutes later when Rasmus Hojlund was fouled inside the box and Fernandes stepped up to convert the resulting penalty. He scored a second spot kick five minutes after half-time after Dorgu was fouled.
The Dane, who joined United from Lecce at the beginning of February, was a constant threat from left wing-back, regularly advancing into attacking positions. He was often found with pinpoint through-balls that cut Sociedad open.
A perfect fit for Amorim's 3-4-2-1 system, Dorgu has promised to continue making the enterprising runs he is so good at.
Asked what it is like to play alongside the likes of Casemiro and Fernandes, Dorgu told MUTV: "It is obviously nice to play with these players; they have so much quality on the ball and it is easy for other players to connect with them.
"They are finding me well, so I will just keep doing it."
The former Lecce man, who returned to the starting XI against Sociedad after sitting out the second match of his three-game domestic ban against Arsenal last weekend, also had a chance to score himself in the first half when space opened up on the edge of the penalty area. However, his tame effort was easily dealt with by Sociedad goalkeeper Alex Remiro.
He has joked that he wants some shooting advice from Fernandes.
"I think Bruno needs to teach me a little bit! But it will come soon," he added.
