Former centre-back John O'Shea described Saturday's 4-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion as the "lowest point" in Manchester United's forgettable 2021/22 campaign.
After showing green shoots of recovery in Monday's 3-0 win over Brentford at Old Trafford, United were brought back down to earth with a bang on the south coast, producing a shambolic performance. Trailing 1-0 at half-time through Moises Caicedo's first Brighton goal, United collapsed in dramatic fashion following the half-time break.
First, Marc Cucurella fired a fierce effort past David de Gea before Pascal Gross danced his way through the defence to put Graham Potter's side 3-0 up. Leandro Trossard completed the rout, bundling in the Seagulls' fourth on the hour mark.
