Manchester United defender Diogo Dalot is confident positive results are just around the corner despite the defeat to Brighton.
All the optimism for the start of a new era under Erik ten Hag and a positive pre-season were wiped out in a desperate first 45 minutes at Old Trafford that very much belonged to last season.
Pascal Gross scored twice in nine minutes for the Seagulls, who outplayed United with brave, forward-thinking football. An Alexis Mac Allister own goal after the break, which Dalot played a part in, got United back in it, but Ten Hag was unable to avoid defeat in his first competitive game in charge.
