- Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof has been Erik Ten Hag's favoured centre-back partnership throughout pre season, and are expected to continue into the new season.

- Danny Welbeck looks set to start following his contribution to Brighton's friendly win over Espanyol.
Prematch: Howard Webb: "Paul, do everything you can to help my club win" Tierney: "Sir yes sir, you are the new chief ref now, we are all at your service." Postmatch: Webb: "You are useless Paul, you're supposed to give Utd penalty even if the foul is at the halfway line." Tierney: "I did my best to make the scoreline look like it's a tight game Howard, it could've been 0-3 10 minutes into the 2nd half..."
Same procedure as every season. New year but old results ...
Oh dear
Martinez booked thankfully so bet wins @ 5.00 odds so get Utd to win stake back lol
Eriksen totally wasted in this position.
Ronaldo smiling on the bench.That says it all.
@Rensen Came on and did nothing, that's after the youngsters did all the hardwork tiring Brighton's defenders.
@Rensen what he smiling about? he loves being a LOSER?? just like his fanboys?
Are United playing a 'false 9' ?
@Rensen They play as a false team. New concept.
United has good players individually, the problem is ten Hag! United needs Conte, Guardiola or Klopp.
@Alparslan The problem is The Glazers. Ten Haag didn't buy this squad. This squad is an inefficient mess; the culmination of the idiot Glazers throwing money away on the wrong players for years. Ten Haag won't have time to make a difference; he has a squad about as good as West Ham but will be expected to compete with Liverpool and City; which he can't. He will be sacked after two seasons and back to square one, only this season they'll go the same way as Everton.
@Alparslan less smokey smokey and more brain excercises
@Alparslan I highly doubt that this team could play Guardiolas type of football.
@Schnma United can play whatever football, they just need the players. They can't keep playing with Fred, McTomminay and Fernandes in the center. Those three are just terrible.
@Yassine_1 Yeah that's what i was trying to say. Having spend so much money on players in the last years and ending up with this team is just embarrassing.
I cannot believe how bad United are playing.
What a bunch of idiots United are. Brighton doesn't even want to play football and they're still winning.
Brighton for 4-0 at least
Man Utd 2-0.
@Rensen I wish i checked the starting line up before saying this.
@Rensen All I heard was someone about to choke to death on something, but it sounded like he enjoyed it.
brighton win + over 2.5 goal
Under 2.5
2-1 brighton , with welbeck scoring a brace and eriksen having scored a goal
In my opinion, Man U will not finish this season in top 10. It's a feeling bcos all the front line are not good in helping defense which will make trouble to the team that have already weakness in the back line.
@sampo If you say out of top 4, that's understandable. But out of top 10? Worst ever United for a very long time, nobody wants to play and even Rangnick finished 6th. Klopp finished 7th in his first season, those who are saying United's team is trash should have a look at what they did until achieving something in the end.
@Byakuya right now United are getting played off the field by last season's 9th place team, so outside of top ten seems very accurate.
@Telly Seems very accurate after first game out of 38 for a team which is still trying to figure things out, very rational. Do you also predict that Liverpool will finish out of top 10 after getting only 1 point against a newly promoted team?
Lisandro Martinez to be booked @ 5.00 odds.
@Rensen Nice win
@Rensen That is if the butcher of Amsterdam starts the game.
Over 2.5 match goals.
@Rensen Nice win
@Rensen Rensen - member since 09-Nov-20 Man Utd 2-0. 8 hours ago Reply Report <----- Big L there double loser.
Man United to score over 1.5 goals @1.72
Ten Hag is more than just a proper coach, he knows how to play football, he knows how to set his team up. But, does he know how to manage a want away GOAT? Utd board have to solve CR7 mind asap, or it will cause them significant points. The Glazers are parasite, football club isn't just an enterprise, it's a cult. It's devastating to see that a group of people with money can crush our culture.
@FootballFanatics 1-2
@eastend1 It's all good. It will be much more miraculous thing if Utd end up in top 4 rather than Leicester won 2016 title. Losing first game is not game over. Utd Ten Hag put CR7 on the bench, that's a good sign. If first half still a draw, maybe ten Hag never gave a min to CR7. Ten Hag need at least three transfer windows to create his proper team. Pep and Klopp need 2 seasons or more two win either EPL or UECL. And they have a proper board, you can't say the same with Glazers. Imo, not even Pep or Klopp can win EPL or UECL if Glazers on the board.
1-1 Fernandes MotM
Poch will be waiting for Erik ten hag to fail as manager so he can take over.
A lot of Utd players are upset with the managers training routines and attitude.
@Rensen Ummm...No they're not.
Gawd knows what is the starting XI or XVI for both sides?
Manchester United 3 Brighton 0, Ronaldo Hat-Trick, can get up to 25-1 Ronaldo Golden Boot.
@Geolardo Ronaldo has told Utd he wants to leave on a free transfer.He has had huge arguments with the Utd coaching staff.
@Rensen Honor your contact like a man, unless you're a pussy.
@Rensen - Wow, were you there?
@Geolardo Martial Hat-Trick?
