Pogba and Van de Beek to start — Manchester United predicted line up vs Brighton

United completed deadline day transfers for Edinson Cavani, Alex Telles and Facundo Pellistri, to add to the addition of Donny van de Beek earlier in the window.

The 6-1 defeat is United's joint-heaviest loss in the Premier League as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Ed Woodward and the Glazers took the brunt of fans' fury after the game. Midfielder McTominay, however, pledged that United's players will look at themselves and react well to the painful reverse.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has made just one change from the side that beat Brighton 3-2 in a madcap Premier League game last week, with Bailly replacing Victor Lindelof in central defence. Harry Maguire is fit enough to start alongside Bailly, while Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic are preferred to Van de Beek, Fred and Scott McTominay in the United midfield to face Tottenham.
