Attitude not good enough from beaten Manchester Unitetd, admits Pogba

BRIGHTON: Manchester United commander Paul Pogba conceded his side didn't have the correct disposition in losing 3-2 to Brighton on Sunday because of a shambolic guarded show.

Without precedent for almost two years, Jose Mourinho's men yielded more than twice with each of the three Brighton objectives touching base before half-time through Glenn Murray, Shane Duffy and a Pascal Gross punishment.

"They had more yearning than us. I put myself first, that my state of mind wasn't sufficiently right. We committed errors we shouldn't make," said Pogba, whose punishment profound into stoppage time demonstrated short of what was expected.

Joined supervisor Mourinho cautioned of a "troublesome" season when he wasn't sponsored in the exchange advertise before the due date for Premier League clubs shut before the opening few days of the season.

Reinforcing the core of his safeguard was Mourinho's need and it appeared as Victor Lindelof and Eric Bailly persevered through a torrid evening on England's south drift.

"We were rebuffed by the oversights we made. For me that is the narrative of the diversion," said Mourinho. "We committed unfathomable errors in some vital minutes. Mix-ups that executed us."

Romelu Lukaku quickly brought United once more into the diversion at 2-1. However, there was little response after the break until Pogba's punishment as United fell three focuses behind shielding champions Manchester City, Chelsea and Tottenham only two amusements into the new crusade.

At the point when United additionally lost on their last visit to Brighton in May, Mourinho bludgeoned those gave their opportunity to battle for a place in the FA Cup last in one of a progression of open tirades against his players.

Furthermore, he asserted the backfire he got for doing as such means he won't talk his mind so uninhibitedly in spite of his third season in control inauspiciously getting off to a terrible begin as it did at Real Madrid and his second season at Chelsea.

"Try not to anticipate that me will talk with you about it since you and your partners were extremely basic when in past seasons I was excessively legit, excessively open examining players exhibitions," included Mourinho. "So don't request that I do what you reprimand to such an extent."

The story could have been altogether different for the guests had Lukaku not squandered an enormous opportunity to open the scoring when he pulled his shot wide of the close post 10 minutes in.

Rather, Brighton went in front when veteran striker Murray got Lindelof ball watching to flick home Solly March's cross with a tasteful wrap up.

After two minutes, the hosts drove 2-0 as Duffy was given the space to control and fire past a vulnerable David de Gea after United neglected to clear a corner.

Notwithstanding proposing he is troubled at Old Trafford in the wake of scoring in a weekend ago's 2-1 prevail upon Leicester, Pogba was again given the skipper's armband by Mourinho.

Nonetheless, there was minimal indication of Pogba driving United out of the soil as he and summer marking Fred, who cost a revealed £52.5 million (57.9 million euros, $66.3 million) attempted to control the amusement in midfield.

"I know you can't simply play, great," included Pogba. "The state of mind dependably must be great and we missed that."

Brighton's inability to guard set-pieces cost them in a 2-0 annihilation to Watford a weekend ago and debilitated to fix their great work again when Lukaku was left plain only five yards out to gesture home Luke Shaw's avoided cross and give United a life saver.

That relief endured only 10 minutes, in any case, before more impulsive safeguarding by Bailly enabled Brighton to reestablish their two-objective lead when he cut down Gross, who changed over from the spot.
