After that display midweek I fancy Brighton to get battered on Saturday. There's got to be a response surely, or am I being to optimistic?

I think we'll keep it tight and hope to nick a goal. That has been the case 9/ 10 games this season.
Any other manager (aside from LVG) would unleash the team and ask them to make a point. I fear Jose will take the approach, "whatever happens we can't lose this game, so keep it tight and we will grind them down".
If we go for it then I'd be amazed. Suppose it depends on if a moment of magic happens, I'm sure we'll have 2 CB's and 3 holding midfielders picking up Murray, got to protect everyone from the amazing attack of Brighton of course - we have to adapt to their strengths / s.

Is our defense strong enough against a team like Brighton?
Do we not have to play a more defensive tactic against such a strong team .

If we don't show much attacking intent I think the atmosphere at OT could get quite toxic and rightly so.
I'm all for supporting the team through a rough patch but to continue with safety first football is wilful neglect of their obligation to supporters which is to provide some goddamn entertainment.
If Mourinho doesn't think we're good enough to go toe to toe with Brighton at home then I honestly don't know what he thinks he's doing at Man Utd.

I'm taking us to overcome Brighton after relinquishing almost 75% of possession and scoring the only goal of the game deep into added on time. MOTM David DeGea.

Wow guys. We lost a game. We have no God given right to win them all. If we change manager every time we lose we'll run out rapid. The great thing about football is there's always next season. At least were not depending on winning the Europa league to get to the champions league. We're 2nd!

Topbomin, I think it was the way we lost that game that p1sses people off.

Noucamp,
It will take an awful amount of good football, (not just one good performance) to wash that debacle and Jose's disgraceful after match commentary from my memory bank.
After the midweek fiasco I suspect Jose is drinking in the last chance saloon with many fans.
