Man Utd boss Erik ten Hag slams display and talks more signings after bad Brighton defeat | Football | Sport

Then, when quizzed on the club potentially needing more signings, he added: “We could do better with the players we had.”

United skipper Harry Maguire also addressed the defeat, and insisting the Red Devils must stop conceding first in order to improve.

“We went into to the game positive but it’s the worst possible start, a bad start,” he said.

“The first goal knocked us back very badly and stopped playing. We have to be better on the ball and 2-0 down at half time was a nightmare start.

“We didn’t create enough to get the equaliser and have to improve on that. It is something we need to address (conceding first). We have to learn from that.
