United was lucky to have won yesterday. Brighton was a far better team before the red card and that De Gea's save at the end of the 1st half was truly world class.
At the end when Brighton was left with 10 men individual quality came through - but United will have to play a lot better than this if they want to keep the top 4 position they climbed into with yesterday's win.
I watched this match till the first half. Manchester United had a very annoying performance. Brighton had some good attacks in the first half. Manchester United would not have been able to win without an experienced talented goalkeeper like De Gea. De Gea saved a lot in this match. But I am happy because after a long time we have seen goals from Ronaldo. He played well. If he returns to form, maybe Manchester United will do better in the upcoming matches.
We will just say luck shinned on Manchester united against brighton the performance wasn't enough for the victory but since the goal is all that matters in each match Manchester has been able to secure a full 3 points, De Gea actually saved the day for united. I won't say Ronaldo performance was bad but united is a big team so the should live up to the task

I think Manchester United played well but the red card at 54 minutes certainly helped their cause.
Though they had scored already at the 51st minute, after the red card I think they looked better and more in control of the match.

And obviously, the late goal scored by Bruno Fernandes sealed the deal for Manchester United in this match. And even though it seems like Manchester United won quite easily in the end I am still going to say that they were lucky.
