I wasn'tYou should've seen the huge Belgian crowd I was when we were 2-0 down against Japan at the World Cup with Fellaini and Chadli coming on to save the game.We were all dancing at the end though.

This team is really poorPogba is a clown at timesWell hey, maybe Jose was right and we DO need a new CB...CB, RB and RW will forever be our issues, unless we spend 200m on it and be done with itThank the gods, gwan ladsThere was an easy return ball for martial too.Absolutely zero urgency, doesn't help both wing forwards are effing static.
Young has had it as a full back. The WC was his swan song.Our right wing is so bad that Knockaert would easily walk into our side.
There will be no reason to drop Shaw should he continuing performing the way he is.
Young creates more in attack than Mata, and the only support Young gets in defense is from Bailly.
The first goal; Bailly should never have been drawn out of the penalty box, but had to give support to Young as Mata and Fred was nowhere to be found.39 min
Free-kick for Brighton 23 yards from goal, central. Knockaert takes and it's up and over the bar.
He's not wrong but he bought the two current ones.Cb's cant play the ball, midfield needs to drop to start the ball construction, attackers need to drop too, team gets smaller in the terrain than it cant construct. Everytime a team pressure the 2 cb's theres gonna be problems
The players are good, not their fault.Get the impression we'll need 4 goals to win this. Can't see Brighton not scoring another.Yes, we have been poor from the first, but all the meltdown is ridiculous. It's ONE GAME, you guys act like United never played a crap half under SAF in the last 20 years of his tenure. Get a grip. Meltdown after the game.Lingard on at half time please.Communication between Lukaku and the rest of the forward players is laughable.
'No value in the market'....Love all the reactive comments. A player makes a mistake: sack him. Shows great football knowledge.
Its the second match of the season. A new midfield, a new CB pair, it will take some time.
He showboats in the wrong positions . Keep it simple and he's world classAfter 2 years Mourinho still hasn't manage to get the concept of pressure across….
You don't need to add another 100m player to this United, just to win against Brighton, though.
Don't overcomplicate things. The least we can demand from Lindelof is that he prevents that goal. If he had then we would have been fine but now for some reason it's all down to mourinho's tactics? If you don't like Jose's style of play then that's fine but don't try to blame every little thing on him.How is Glenn Murray, Glenn fecking Murray, managing to make 2 CB's look woeful!! And out run fecking Bailly!!!
Just doesn’t look right at all.Need new fullbacks more than centerbacks.Would love to make an assload of money by being a useless, lazy footballer like 98% of our squad.
Must be nice.We really need to equalise before half time.
Can’t pass out like Pirlo from the back or something.
Same, we were 2-0 down before I'd seen a goal.Mata is just worthless going forward at this pointWe sold Mhiki, to play Mata out on the right.
Great plan.41 min
A dramatic few minutes. United conceding two very poor goals and looking all over the shop at the back. They can't keep conceding such sloppy goals. They've got a lifeline though with that goal from Lukaku. Everything to play for in this game.Big fan of Mata's idea of defending being stand still with your legs as far apart as physically possible without doing the splits.We are so easy to open up despite having so many back. Yet why can’t we do that against the opposition.
What are you talking about? CBs are actually playing the ball. Are you watching the game? Lindelof and Bailly are doing more than fine with it and playing from the back.
The problem is neither of them are very good at defending at the moment.We can't seem to hold on to possession against Brighton.
Not sure, I can't remember him ever looking comfortable on the right. Hes only got one patented move which is the cut back and a deep looping curving in cross. He can't use that on the right.Brighton have it so easy today. And Brighton are not a good team with a lot of quality.
Shambolic performance regardless of still being in the game.Feck me, they just walk through our right flank time and time again
He had a good game last week too. If he keeps this up he should make that left back spot his own this season.Martial aint doing jack to convince Jose he should start ahead of anyone right now. I even forgot he was on the pitch.- Status
