Unwanted records tumble as Manchester United season hits new low with Brighton thrashing

Manchester United's current squad on Saturday went down in history for all the wrong reasons as defeat at Brighton saw their season hit a new low.

A 4-0 humbling on the south coast, against a team who had previously scored just 12 goals at home all season, has condemned United to their worst ever points total in Premier League history. United can only hit 61 points, their lowest possible total since 1990 (48 points) and 1991 (51 points).

A second-half flurry from Marc Cucurella, Pascal Gross and Leandro Trossard means United also conceded the most goals of any Premier League campaign. David de Gea has seen 45 goals fly past him with one game still to play.
