Manchester United's season reached a new nadir losing 4-0 to Brighton at the Amex Stadium, in Ralf Rangnick's penultimate game in charge of the club.

He slid a ball through to Pascal Gross who calmly pushed the ball past the sliding Raphael Varane with his right foot, before sliding home with his left.

They currently have 58, and could yet slip to the seventh place they finished in under David Moyes.
