Paul. Manchester United have thrown away a 2-0 lead against Brighton in the third round of the Carabao Cup, and they've been knocked out by three goals to two alongside us uh Joby Mackinough and Old Trafford, Clinton Morrison and our football correspondent John Murray.

How historic is Sunderland’s 1‑0 win over AZ Alkmaar in Europe?

Aaron Paul 1:08
Let's get straight into it.

What insights did Sunderland legend Marco Gabbiadini share about the victory?

Aaron Paul 1:09
John, just refresh us of the nature of the time. What actually happened?
John Murray 1:13
Yes, this just the latest famous day for Brighton here at Old Trafford, their fifth win in their last six visits here. What a record that is. And what adds to this latest nightmare for Manchester United is that they'd responded to Sunday's Derby defeat by going 2-0 up inside ten minutes. Shea Lacey scored his first senior goal on his first start.

Why did Fleetwood Town’s upset of Sheffield United matter for the EFL Cup?

John Murray 1:33
We thought then that may well be the story of the night. Mason Mount swiftly. Made it 2-0. But Brighton took stock, settled, found their feet, deservedly got a goal back through Costulas before half time, and then Brighton hit United with two quick goals of their own just past the hour.

What did Manchester United manager Michael Carrick say on the podcast?

John Murray 1:50
Pascal Gross, his eighth goal against them, and substitute Maxim de Kuiper's finish, turned out to be the match winner after Marcus Rashford threw one-on-one was denied by Brighton keeper Jason Steele's right leg.
Aaron Paul 2:04
Yeah, absolutely. Uh Fabian Hertzler, cool. Jason's still the best number two about. He's an exp experienced player.

Who will face Arsenal in the fourth round and what are the draw details?

Aaron Paul 2:11
He's talking to television right now. Great save from the Brighton keeper. Just take us to full time though, Clinton Morrison. The boos were loud, weren't they?
Clinton Morrison 2:19
Yeah, Man United fans were not happy. It was a it was a disappointing performance. You know, two nil up and you end up losing it three two. And you could have lost by more to be fair. Some big big chances went for Brighton in that second half and I thought Brighton were fantastic. As soon as Brighton made mistakes on for the second goal, but as soon as Brighton went two nil down, they just changed and they clicked into gear and got their passing right and as I said, positive performance for Brighton. And that's how good we were digging them up before Brighton. That's how good Hertzler and nice this group of Brighton players are. You can m afford to make six changes and still dominate a man united team.
Aaron Paul 2:51
Joby, I mean you've you've watched Michael Carrick teams for for a while and and it was it was kinda symptomatic of what we saw at Middlesbrough. Things perhaps starting to fall apart a little bit in in that second season. We're not seeing something similar here, are we?
Jobi McAnuff 3:05
No, listen, I think we've got to be very careful that we don't go too over the top. Listen, Michael is incredibly experienced, he knows that club inside out and he will know more than anyone that the results have not been good enough this season. And he'll be concerned. Again, I have got a touch on the the goals they've conceded, two against Holt, to even the win against Ipswich two, Everton two, four nil against Sabah, fair enough. Manchester City. And then tonight, you know, three. You cannot win football games when you concede in two goals every week and you know that is a big problem. I think also the problem when you talk about Brighton and how good they were, the way that they connect throughout the pitch, whether it's the centre halves when they're trying to play out with the midfield, the the rotations, the movement, everybody is on the same page where Manchester United were the complete opposite of that tonight.
Jobi McAnuff 3:49
Times where Euro or Heaven are trying to get on the ball, they've got no options, they end up losing the ball.
