Brighton hit the crossbar 5 times and could have defeated United but United were quite lucky today to get all 3 points. Brighton had 18 shots and 5 of those shots were on target, while United had 7 shots and 3 on target. Perhaps United were more clinical as the 3 shots of United led to 3 goals. The performance of United was below par. There were many sloppy passes, weak defending, no pressing. It was almost as if the players were just strolling in the park. None of the defenders even tried to commit or stick a leg out to block Brighton's shots. They were not marking the Brighton forwards who had great opportunities to win the game The only transfer of the season so far Van De Beek could not make any impact in the game because he did not have enough time to do that! If United give the ball away and defend the same way against top teams like Liverpool and Man City, they are going to get punished! They need to improve a lot and fast to even get into the top 6 this season as there

The Jason Sancho deal has been really frustrating just like this window for Man United. Wolves, Liverpool, Man City, Everton, Chelsea, Arsenal and Spurs have all addressed their areas of weaknesses, or strengthened their teams by signing new players. Carlo spotted weaknesses in Everton's midfield and he signed Allan, James and Doucoure. Arteta spotted the weakness in defence and signed Gabriel who scored in his first game.  Van Der Sar helped United sign Van De Beek this transfer window but signing Van De Beek is not enough as he may not even be a regular starter right now. There are weakness for United was in defence and they have not addressed that area yet. United were linked to Upemecano and Regullion but they did not sign these players.The fans are frustrated with this transfer window and so is Ole Gunnar Soljkaer according to reports from ESPN.  The bottom line is that the transfer negotiations, transfer recruitment policy and the way Man Utd is run by the Glazers and Ed Wood
