A new season, a new manager and a new era yet, Manchester United turned in a patented uninspired display as they fell to a 2-1 opening day defeat too Brighton and Hove Albion.
United looked shaky throughout and their defensive frailties were exposed time and time again, with former United star Danny Welbeck running Harry Maguire and new boy Lisandro Martinez ragged throughout.
The Red Devils improved in the second half with Cristiano Ronaldo's introduction but it still wasn't enough as the Erik Ten Hag era got off to the worst possible start.
