MOTM: for me it’s between Welbeck, Trossard or Groß. All were superb.

It's natural for a club like Manchester United to receive the lion's share of the focus after a result like today's - derision, mockery, pale warnings for the season lying ahead. Instead, I implore you to turn your gaze to Brighton and Hove Albion, one of the most exciting sides in the division, and on current viewing a contender for being the best of the sides outside the European contingent. Today's victory was as delightful to watch as it was a measure of Brighton's endurance, and a sign the club can potentially lift themselves higher than 9th this season.
Football is a beautiful sport when you use the ball as smoothly as Brighton do. Watching them dance around United across every patch of grass at Old Trafford was incredible, a true testament to the exemplary standard of coaching Graham Potter imparts upon his players and reflected in the two goals and abundance of attacking move inflicted upon the home side in the first half. United laboured with the ball, Brighton made art; watching players bought for several times more than United's assembly line of expenditure demonstrates that, for as true as the phrase "money wins matches" is, the technique and discipline a club practises still has crucial weight for a team.
There's a certain irony in the fact that Danny Welbeck, a player dismissed from United for being "below standard" was superior to all their forwards today. Maguire and Martinez looked pedestrian and amateurish trying to read his movement, causing pandemonium at the back and planting the seeds of chaos for his teammates to benefit from. Outstanding today, as he usually is, and unfortunate not to have won a penalty for a blatant shove in the box - what would we say of his career but for the years robbed by injury? When his attacking teammates involve everyone beyond the three centre backs - another statement on the magnificence of Potter's versatile, intelligent formation for Brighton - you have the tools to score numerous goals. In players like March, Lallana, Groß and Mac Allister, you have technically accomplished footballers in the bodies of willing athletes and diligent pressers. In the 3-4-3 Brighton pick you have defenders able to suffocate United's attackers whilst being capable of pinging the ball forward through defence as they did for the second goal. Compare Brighton's dynamic wingbacks to the turgid nothingness Shaw and Dalot offered all match, the constant danger in Brighton's midfield next to McTominay's languid presence, or even Sanchez's attacking goal kicks to De Gea's aimless hoofs, and you have a world of difference. Potter's side aren't perfect; they flapped a little after the own goal, and clearly they don't have the elite quality that many of the sides above them boast in the critical moments, as evidenced by moments of panic at the back; but offer Potter the budget others receive and who knows where he could take this side?
Obviously the reactionary punditry that will follow ten Hag throughout his time at the club shouldn't become the predominant voice of criticism, and successful football takes time to bestow upon a club far from where it's prestige demands it should be, but the same faults are rife across the side - lethargy in departments other sides funnel energy and clinicality into, constant deficiencies in concentration, being unable to maintain considerable pressing and pressure on the opposition for more than a ten minute window (if that) and a serious deficit in footballing ability across the entire team. Rashford and Sancho were lively but unproductive, Eriksen and Bruno Fernandes are deeply gifted footballers but on another wavelength to their teammates - though increasingly, Bruno looks inebriated and oafish whilst on the ball - and de Gea looks destined to spend the rest of his days shouting furiously at his teammates. All were poor, but the worst embarrassments came from the usual cast - hideous defending from all in the back line, as per usual unprotected by the cardboard like approach from McTominay and Fred, and once again youth players and Ronaldo were thrown on to try and save United's blushes, to no effect. Ten Hag should examine how Brighton waited until much later to introduce Lamptey and Mwepu, who relieved pressure from the back and trapped United in their own half with their speed and physicality - it once again showcases the difference in planning and thought at the two clubs, and suggests a long season may have to be suffered by United fans if change does not come.
Brighton don't have the financial firepower some sides enjoy but when you play football like they did today there's no reason they can't make serious progress in the division, and certainly target one of the two cup competitions! There should be real praise and excitement for this side - a real celebration of football, thanks to Graham Potter and his team.

Irrespective of how not so good Manchester United are this was a fantastic result against a team we just don't ever win at their place. Like others have said,a little disappointed that we conceded. To win at 1 of the big 6 on opening day is how far we have come. And, its not a shock to us to be winning these games however the pundits will mostly focus on how bad United were.

On the way back with all 3 points, magnificent HOWEVER what an absolutely disgusting refereeing performance.
Thought we would be playing until they equalised. Shades of match fixing, disgraceful.

Thank you.
To be honest, I thought...I really don't give a flying **** what a random Fulham thinks.
