The defeat suffered by Manchester United of course surprised many people but not for me, because in the last few seasons Brighton has been a team that often gives Ten Hag nightmares,
At first I wanted to critise Manchester united more but after seeing that on their 15 meetings, Brighton has 7 wins and Manchester united 8 wins without draw. So this is quite understandable but that doesn't mean they don't deserve much criticism. To me the first goal they conceded was disappointing to the player who was at the defense when Welbeck did tip the ball to the goal, I didn't see the other goal ls and I can't say any other players were at fault also.
although currently Ten Hag has brought in several new players, but the defeat against Brighton indicates that They are still not strong enough and compact enough, defense was previously Manchester United main problem, but if we look at today match, seem Manchester United has not fixed this problem even though they have brought De Light and Mazraoui into their squad.
While after these new signing I didn't expect Manchester united to be having difficulty against Brighton this season, Ten Hag did spoke before (probably before the league started) that this new signings adapted to the club, I guessed they need s little more time though Mazraoui did well providing an assist today.
Btw, I saw McTominay played in that match, Isn't it reported that he is currently in the process of moving to Napoli?
Jadon Sancho isn't even in the Manchester United squad, what this indicate he will leave for Juventus?
McTominay might still be on his way out if any club van meet Manchester united asking fee while Jadon Sancho might just be on his way out probably through loan if Manchester united fee is unable to be meet because this is the reason both players are still a Manchester united players after interest from other clubs
