FT: Man Utd 4-2 Brighton
Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "It is disappointing. We made too many mistakes and like this, you cannot win the game."
On whether he felt like something was in the game at 3-2: "I felt it all the time that there was something. We are consistently there. We worked hard, we had chances and they had chances but the main thing was after our too easy mistakes, it cost us energy. That energy, we missed it a little bit in the end."
On their own mistakes costing them: "In the end it is about execution and our execution wasn't right today. We made too many easy mistakes and we have to start in training, take every pass and every touch serious. We have to improve."
On responding from 3-0 down: "Like I said, the character was good, the personality was there and the belief was there. We never gave up but the main thing is, we made too easy mistakes. The rest, the plan and how we were structured was good but in the end you have to have the execution and that is something we missed today."
On whether Man Utd were more confident today: "I think they had confidence, we had confidence. We started in a 50/50 game like this. The atmosphere was loud today. The fans were loud today but we made them loud with our mistakes, that is also part of the truth and that is something we have to change."
On what is next for the group: "It is always about reflecting no matter if you win or lose. It is a young group and we have to analyse it, be honest and find the right solutions. That is always our approach and attitude after the games. Now, we have to keep working."
