Brighton crush woeful Manchester United as Red Devils' season ... (Eurosport.com)

Manchester United's season reached a new nadir losing 4-0 to Brighton at the Amex Stadium, in Ralf Rangnick's penultimate game in charge of the club.

The team built by Potter has a central midfield which can mix it with the very best in the Premier league, a well-organised defence and a number of bought-in talented players capable of ensuring the ball spends a lot of time in dangerous areas. This included two assists for the goals, but there were many more fine passages of play where he helped forge opportunities for his team. 65' OFF THE POST! The United defence is ridiculously open. They currently have 58, and could yet slip to the seventh place they finished in under David Moyes. Eight minutes later there was another goal, the pick of the bundle, when Cucurella brought down a fantastic long pass from goalkeeper Robert Sanchez, then found Trossard in the box. So it has been at Brighton with the team now set for their best finish in the club's history.

Cristiano Ronaldo's dismal 4/10 performance set the tone for poor ... (ESPN)

Player ratings: No one had a good day for Manchester United as the Premier League giants' season hit a new low against Brighton & Hove Albion.

They were bullied, predictable with their decision making, anxious at every turn and just didn't have any kind of direction aside from playing it back to one of their only capable first-teamers. They were defending much more resiliently to avoid further decline and on the odd chance they made something happen in the final third, it was always through some nice, quick passing in and around the box. MF Fred, 3 -- In one of the worst cameos of the season thus far, Fred couldn't keep the ball at his feet and was woeful with his positional play. The Red Devils looked slow from the word go and were made to pay for their poor play as Moises Caicedo put Brighton 1-0 up within 15 minutes. MF Anthony Elanga, 4 -- The youngster had to drop incredibly deep just to get any sniff of the ball and after failing to deal with the physicality of the opposition, he was subbed off. This was as close to a disaster-class as an 'elite' club can get.

Report: Brighton 4 United 0 (Manchester United)

Manchester United were beaten 4-0 by Brighton and Hove Albion in the Premier League, in our penultimate encounter of the 2021/22 campaign.

Welbeck fired inches wide from range as Potter’s men went in search of a fifth late on, but the Seagulls were unable to add to their tally further. Things went from bad to worse on the hour-mark, as Trossard then added a fourth. Soon after Ralf Rangnick had opted to make a double change at the start of the second half, Brighton added a second. With 15 minutes gone, Graham Potter’s side took the lead. The Seagulls could have had a fifth as both Alexis Mac Allister and Gross continued to cause problems, but the ball came back off the woodwork and went wide following a strong intervention from Dalot. Leandro Trossard was another who looked ever-threatening for the Seagulls, as he and his team looked to exploit the Reds, in a bid to double their advantage.

Man Utd subjected to weird swipe from Zenit St Petersburg after ... (Mirror.co.uk)

Manchester United's horror season continued as they were well beaten by Brighton on the south coast and Russian champions Zenit St Petersburg have mocked ...

"It was a completely different game and today from the first minute we allowed them too much time, too much space and we were never able to be in a position to stop them playing through our lines. The German said: "Yes it was [a poor performance]. From the first to the last minute this was not enough and in all-important areas we were second best. Interim boss Ralf Rangnick has just one game left at the helm and has now seen his side ship at least three goals in their last three losses.
