The defeat against Brighton has highlighted the team's struggle against top opposition away from home, with the club's inconsistency in big games coming under scrutiny.
The away record against top-nine teams is a worrying trend for United, who have aspirations of challenging for the title next season. The lack of consistency and the inability to grind out results against the top teams is a major concern for the club's fans, who are calling for a response from the team.
Fans are also questioning the tactics employed by manager Erik Ten Hag in these games, as the team's approach in away matches against top opposition has been called into question.
