Manchester United FC

There have been some obscure final-day XIs from Man United and it has not always been wise to rotate en masse.

There were innumerable positives for Manchester United on Wednesday night and their victory means there is something to play for at Brighton on Sunday.

Brighton have won four of their 15 games against the top eight and Sunday could mark Roberto de Zerbi's swansong. Brighton are not the sure thing they were eight months ago. Only Lindelof survived from the back four against City, who scored after 13 seconds. That has to be dismissed as a freak, rather than a miscalculation by Ten Hag. Lindelof, on his 12th consecutive start, was the defender who hesitated in the second-ball duel with Erling Haaland before it dropped to Ilkay Gundogan.

"My players wouldn't forgive me if I played the strongest team," Ferguson said ahead of the match. "They would say, 'what?'. It would be the best thing that could happen to Hull really."
