Officially our worst ever Premier League season.
Manchester United lost 4-0 away to Brighton today. It was another embarrassing performance from this team as it became mathematically impossible for the Red Devils to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
We were shocking. Borderline farce.
Here’s how we rated each United player on their performance.
David de Gea – 3
Slow to react to Brighton’s opening goal but let down by United’s defence for the three goals that followed.
Diogo Dalot – 3
Never fills me with confidence when he is asked to defend.
Victor Lindelof – 2
Outpaced and outpowered on repeat.
Raphael Varane – 2
Just as bad as Lindelof – if not worse.
Alex Telles – 2
Had another shocker.
Nemanja Matic – 5
Carried out his role well before coming off at half-time.
