Brighton survived a late onslaught to secure a first win at Old Trafford and condemn Erik ten Hag to a losing start as Manchester United manager.

Pascal Gross' first-half double stunned the home supporters, who were desperate to see their team put a miserable end to last season behind them.

However, United were totally outplayed in that opening period by Graham Potter's team, who beat them 4-0 at the Amex Stadium in May on their way to a ninth-placed finish, their highest in the top flight.

Not even the second-half introduction of Cristiano Ronaldo could deny Brighton, although they did threaten a comeback when a scramble inside the visitors box ended with Alexis Mac Allister turning the ball into his own net after goalkeeper Robert Sanchez had touched it into his path under pressure from Harry Maguire.

In nine previous league visits, Brighton had managed only one draw, so this victory was historic.

For Ten Hag, it meant enduring a similar start as United manager as fellow Dutchman Louis van Gaal, who lost his first game by the same score, also at home, to Swansea in 2014.

New season, same problems for Man Utd

With the sun shining and a new manager in place, there was a sense of optimism around United before kick-off.

Ten Hag has started to impose his personality on the club, to the extent of ousting some of the 'prawn-sandwich brigade' from their corporate hospitality suites so his players could have their pre-match meal.

Yet so many of the old issues remained. Protests against the club's owners before kick-off meant the club shop had to be shut.

Co-chairman Avie Glazer was paying a rare visit and would have heard the songs to his left calling for his family to get out of the club.

On the pitch, there was no cohesion despite decent debuts from Christian Eriksen and Lisandro Martinez.

Brighton, well drilled and fluid, took advantage. Leandro Trossard volleyed into the side-netting within 15 seconds of the start and United failed to impose themselves on the game until it was far too late.

For the opener, Welbeck's run split Maguire and Martinez. The latter came across from the left to cover the cross, leaving a huge hole in the six-yard box and, as United's defence scrambled to plug the gaps, Gross was on his own to tap home at the far post.

Gross was in a similar position but on the other post when Solly March cut inside and unleashed a low shot, which keeper David de Gea turned into his path.

The boos that accompanied the half-time whistle were predictable and deserved. Within eight minutes of the resumption, Ronaldo had been introduced to try and lead a rescue mission.

The 37-year-old had a negligible impact. It was another Portuguese, Diogo Dalot, who created the confusion that led to United's goal. But by the end it was Brighton who looked more likely to score again.

I knew ten hag will fail at united when he has failed to sign a defensive midfielder with flair and keep his hope on mctominay and fred. U are playing your first game at home and you are feeding eriksen as a striker. Who does that? Am not surprised he is just like his father Louis Van Gaal. Annoying dutch manager. I hate dutch football this is no eredivisie. They will soon sack him and employ another dundee

what I saw yesterday is all failure in red nothing positive to draw out from the game. Those boys can't play his system, building ball from the back with players like Maguire de gea and dalot including shaw. Only Man city and Liverpool does that succesfully and he took them years before their team could master it. Winning a game in EPL is difficult you have to labour to win. Why not play an easy approach to football like conte and howe of Newcastle is doing.

Their biggest problem is midfield. No matter who you but if You don't buy creative midfielders and make Fernandez play his midfield instead of pokenosing to attackers work, man united will not do well. Varane last year, Martinez this year. They are all proven defenders, what happened again? Besides, we shouted Maguire last season, when he was benched towards the end of last season, Man United still wobbled

add Fred and rash Ford to the list. They are all average player. Not good enough.

Why always Maguire? Why are they always playing this guy despite how terrible he is. What's so special about this guy. I think there's a secret behind this.

What of rashford?
Worst

Now you've seen why Ragnick never trusted him to give him playing time last season?


ETH is making a big mistake if he puts his entire hope on British/English player's like Ole did

They're the real reason many managers have been dropped

Klopp and Guardiola doesn't bank much on English player's, if you see their starting lineups, there are only two or three at best

Manchester United had almost 6 British player's yesterday, bland and less creative and rigid player's who won't try something new or think outside the box

That team

Ferguson on his first game at United was beaten about 4-0...but today he is United greatest manager. So calm down. I'm sure will do better in the next games. He has learnt a big lesson not to field Mcfred together
