5 THINGS WE LEARNED LAST NIGHT

1 MAROUANE FELLAINI claimed this week that Manchester United had made a big mistake by not offering him a new contract sooner. He added they could pay a heavy price for their hesitation. Crikey. Really? Fellaini, currently on £80,000 a week at Old Trafford, wants a two-year deal to stay beyond this summer. Judging by this, he is not worth it. He does not have enough in his locker. 2 JOSE MOURINHO singled out Scott McTominay at Manchester United’s end-of-season awards dinner, naming the 21-year-old as his personal player of the year. McTominay started on the bench last night and watched as £89million signing Paul Pogba tried to pull the strings in midfield. Pogba’s passes were often misplaced and he showed his frustration at team-mates for not making the right runs. Not the Frenchman’s night. 3 BRIGHTON fans will not want to hear this, but Anthony Knockaert would look right at home at a big-six club. He has an Eden Hazard look about him at times. Staying in the Premier League next season at least gives Brighton a chance of keeping the forward. The 26-year-old Frenchman bamboozled United’s defenders at times and threaded inch-perfect through-balls, particularly in the first half. He was a driving force. 4 MINUTE 20 of this match showed why David de Gea has won Manchester United’s player of the year award in four of the last five seasons. When Glenn Murray leathered a shot towards goal, De Gea flung himself to his right and, with one hand, kept the score at 0-0. Best in the Premier League, but helpless for Brighton’s opener. 5 WITH no Romelu Lukaku because of an ankle injury, Marcus Rashford acted as a lone striker. The young man loves to run at defenders but his decision-making could improve. Anthony Martial, starting with Rashford for only the second time in 2018, was frustrated when the 20-year-old failed to use him.
