Excellent result, good second half performance.
Vital three points

 

[Sandikan]

Cess pool of the matchday thread aside, that was an important win.
And that was all that was needed tonight.

 

[Michael T]

Great weekend to pick up the three points. I'm happy. Onwards...

 

[cj_sparky]

Ever get that feeling of Deja vu... Wins a win.

 

[NewGlory]

Great comeback, excellent 2nd half with extremely important win. I hope we finish 2nd. I know it's irrational, but I would rather us finish 2nd than win Europa League and finish EPL lower. Possibly because I don't think we will win EL and I don't won't to finish 3rd or 4th in pursuit of something that most likely won't happen anyway. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[Andre Kagawa]

Great result. Welbeck is a cnut.

 

[Red Star One]

bad style, very important three points.

 

[JinnerJamie]

First half was painful, second was very good.

Credit to Brighton.

 

[Superunknown]

I was worried for a bit that we would just see the game drift on by. But, we came out in that second half and got those important goals. Happy for Mason to add another to his tally.

We do make it hard for ourselves.

 

[superdry]

JC ain't the only one who can rise from the dead at Easter!

 

[Rampant Red Rodriguez]

Just want to say that it's an excellent win for the 3 points. Brighton fought against the red 2nd half tide so well, and very well done to them. It was an absolutely tough game and we did a great service to our club history to snatch the 3 points.

Well done OGS and the boys

 

[dwd]

Game of two halves. Good spirit to find the win

 

[Reditus]

fecking over the moon with that. Didn’t see us coming back. But said in the other thread we have real mental belief these days and showed huge character to win today,

Fantastic win, delighted

 

[Member 101269]

Closer to securing CL and second: ready for next season, ready to renew my season tickets. Right now I don’t care about the play.. just the points

 

[Cassidy]

Glad we won. I hope we can improve the right hand side in the summer.

 

[Ekeke]

Rashford, Bruno and Greenwood with a few important moments to get the points.

We need to learn to defend a cross into the middle of our box

 

[Ajr]

Brighton are actually a good team so this was a good win

 

[minas]

Three points and both goals from our academy.

3 goals of our academy!

 

[elmo]

3 points!

Less we say about the first hour of football the better.

 

[stu_1992]

A deserved win in the end. We were by far the better team the second half, unrecognisable from the first half really. 2 very nice goals in the second. Great move and finish for the first, and a decent move finished off with a very nice header for the second. Only annoyance from that second half was that we seemed to invite pressure on ourselves in the closing minutes which made it a bit nervy, but not a major deal.

Happy with the win and second half performance. Awful first half, and poor goal to concede, particularly for Wan Bissaka.

 

[wolvored]

Thank god Brighton couldnt keep their energy up from the first half. 2 decent goals though.

 

[bosnian_red]

Much better second half. Shaw, Bruno and Pogba all stepped up. Great to see Greenwood score, deserved it the past few months. Fred probably my motm as he was quite good all game, whereas the rest were shit for half of it.

 

[abailey123]

Thought Harry Maguire was brilliant at the back tonight. Huge 3 points. Second half was night and day compared to the first half

 

[Oranges038]

Terrible first half, much better second.

Reaĺly can't be arsed thinking about this game any more. Totally forgetable match.

 

[Hester_manc]

Three points and both goals from our academy.

All 3 goals were from our academy ;-)

 

[Vidyoyo]

Not the prettiest win but we got there in the end. Good result.

Don't care what @Sandikan says either. We were not outschooled by Potter.

 

[joedirt87]

3 points but this team could have played for 900 minutes and not found a goal if not for the Brighton mistake

 

[Schmeichel's Cartwheel]

It wasn’t pretty but a wins a win. Take it & move on. Now onto actually enjoyable thing like having a drink & watching a movie!

 

[saivet]

Not sure I agree with so many that the 2nd half was excellent. I thought we improved and played okay in the 2nd half and probably deserved the win, but we were by no mean great.

We're now in an excellent position for top 4 so happy days.

These type of performances are becoming a bit of a trend which is concerning but hopefully they can be rectified in the EL and next season.

 

[calodo2003]

Rather shit overall, but three points is three points.

That’s how Rashford should be utilized - keep the ball out of his feet, give him one touch attempts.

 

[TwoSheds]

Jammy but I'll take it. We have to stop turning in these pathetic, slow 1st half displays. As soon as we up the tempo we create stuff but they all just stand around like statues until they go a goal down.

I also don't get the point of playing Fred against a team like Brighton who are going to put a lot of bodies behind the ball. I don't think we've had a player who's less of a goal threat since Gary Neville used to trot down the wing.

 

[BestRed]

Thank feck for that, tough game, great 3 points for us.

 

[YouOnlyLiveTwice]

Three points and both goals from our academy.

 

[Polar]

Excellent result, good second half performance.
Vital three points

Yes.. Brighton players were crowded second half. Well deserved win.

 

[Zen86]

It was a chore to watch, but it’s 3 points. There’s a worrying trend with just how flat we’ve been of late. The entire team seems so laboured at times. Hopefully it’s just fatigue, but I think we desperately need some comings and goings in the summer.

 

[keithsingleton]

Poor performance but a nice 3 points I suppose. We maybe second in the league but our football so up and down.

 

[Rustyspider13]

Great win, comebacks are always fun. Hope this kind of resilient win gives us the belief we need to finish the season on a high.

I missed the first half. So for me it was a decent performance, Brighton didn't threaten at all second half. Very glad for Mason, he's hitting goal scoring form at the right time. Brighton are probably sick of Maguire

 

[Jeppers7]

Could’ve been 90% of our games this season I’ve just watched. Important win though

 

[always_hoping]

Job done thanks to a much improved 2nd half performance that included 12 shots on goal, 7 on target and two goals.

Brighton are no mugs recently bet Liverpool away and should have earned at least a draw away to Man City so very pleased that United stepped up 2nd half for a hard earned and deserved win.

 

[lysglimt]

Very strange game - Brighton by far the best side in the first half and then we won the goal attempts after the break by something like 12-0 or 12-1 depending if you count the VAR-situation as an attempt.

It feels strange going behind in game after game, knowing - we will turn it around in the second half - no matter how poor we were before the break.

So regardless of what people think of OGS - surely he must do something right during half-team.
