One of Uniteds worse ever PL team performances and still won. Brighton will be left to wonder how they lost that game. Hit the post 3 times and crossbar twice as well as many other good chances to score.

Uniteds awful preparation for this new season have been seen in the last two league games. So many of the players are a mile off the pace. Wan Bissaka given a start today and produced his worst display in the United shirt. A really stupid penalty given away by Maupay, nerves of steel by Bruno to score the winner.

Good win for Utd. Carrying on where they left off last season in term of entertainment.

According to some United fans here Ole has a good record in the transfer market. He's spent £130 million on Maguire and AWB. Let that sink in!

Scoring the winner after the final whistle is a new one on me  :)

Great to see. Another massive win to paper over the cracks and keep Ole at the wheel another while.  ;D

More like papering over a whole door.

Ole had little or no say in those transfers. He has no say in any transfer business. Any manager referring to a former manager as the Boss is always going to be in trouble when looking for respect. Amazing how the Glazers hide in the background in all of this. Seeping money from the club!

The nonsense about the Glazers not spending money or investing is a joke. They have invested the guys of £900m since Fergie retired in 2013. The difference is the purchases have failed, not the lack of investment.

He has a say every manager does in who are brought in. Yet they don't always get their prime targets especially at United. Ole doesn't set the transfer fees that's the job of Woodward and his chief negotiator Matt Judge.

2018/19 United conceded 54 PL goals. With AWB, Maguire in defence United conceded 36 PL goals last season.

Small point of order the Glazers haven't invested a penny in the club since buying it in 2005. They have cost it £1.5billion in that timeframe though.

Another point worth noting is the fact most other clubs are investing in their stadiums, training facilities etc. yet the glazers have failed to do so, instead the facilities have become tired and dated.

Yes, unlike Roman Abramovich with Chelsea, this is not an ego trip for the Glazers! This is a way of making not spending money!

I dont buy into this. Old trafford has had 3 stands rebuilt since 1994  bar the south stand, No it's not ultra modern like spurs or arsenal but it's far from a kip I've been in most parts of it yes its basic but its alot bigger than most so I suppose money was saved somewhere to add capacity. Carrington isnt that old a facility 20 years roughly.

Your missing the point. I'm not talking about building a new stadium. The glazers have owned the club since 2005 (15 years). That's a long time to have invested no money in upgrading the facilities.

I've owned my house for 17 years but I continually upgrade it so it doesn't become tired and dated.

Manchester United with their customary penalty from Penandes AFTER the final whistle today. The corruption knows no bounds. I wonder will VAR go back and award Sheffield United's over-the-line goal against Villa last year, or correct Liverpool's "offside" against Man city in 2014 to hand us another title. I think not.
