Speaking to Sky Sports, via Daily Mail, he said, “‘It can’t be. I understand the perspective from the outside. But we can’t be comfortable thinking that this is OK. It’s not.
“I’m not here to lose games and be in the position we are in at the moment. But I know that no-one in that dressing room is and if someone is, they can’t be here.”
“It doesn’t matter to me. It’s another loss to us. It doesn’t matter how many times they’ve won against us.

“I remember in the past where they haven’t won a game here. That’s not going to change anything.
“The main thing that is going change for us is we didn’t get the three points today. Congratulations to them, they did a good game and they deservedly won the game.”
United have now lost six of its past seven Premier League encounters with the Seagulls, including all three of those encounters at Old Trafford.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7y6ujOItm_Y
