Finally managed to watch the highlights of the Brighton match and it bore no resemblance to the MBM commentary I was following on match day! MBM made it out like we were under a huge amount of pressure but I think Brighton were lucky not to be on the receiving end of a 4-0 result.
Lammens has been a real upgrade and looks like a proper keeper finally but he'd fancy his chances keeping the first goal out 8/ 10 times.
The second goal was just piss poor defending from Zirkzee.
Mbeuemo is some player though. That last goal was top class!

Lammans (pronounced Lommens) is no lemon. A lot of dip on Danny's free kick, but, yes, maybe he would expect himself to do better.
Brighton played some nice football but made very few if any really good chances whereas United went close on at least 3 occasions. Sesko should have done better with his chance. Bruno was unlucky when he burst through. Could have gone anywhere.
It was a tense ending. The subs did not do well. We were cruising until Dorgu gave the ball away and then nearly got himself sent off. Zirkzee, who IMO is not good enough to succeed in the EPL, is also out of practice, probably demoralized, and failed miserably to do his job at the near post. He's another of the terrible purchases who will probably look good in another league, but in any event is nowhere near as good as McTominay. We all agree - and I'm sure the club does too - that the next stage is to rebuild the midfield. Cas might get another season, Bruno's also getting on, Ugarte has done nothing to convince anyone that he's good enough to dominate at DM in the EPL.
I liked the fact that at the time when Dorgu did make his almost disastrously costly error, we were still attacking rather than playing the game out. On the balance of play it should have been a far easier win but somehow United we always tend to make things more exciting/ stressful than the game should dictate.
