Here are 5 things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt from the display at the Amex stadium.

1. MASON 'BAZUKA' GREENWOOD
Our junior Van Persie, Mason,  joined Martial and Marcus to form the attacking M.M.M against Brighton. The teenager was super lively throughout the game.


He capped his performance with his usual leg-over and shot into the net plus a fine assist for Bruno Fernandes.

With the way and manner his shots have been rattling the net, #ManUtdNaijaFM have decided to name him Mason 'Bazuka' Greenwood.

2. AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF BABA FERGIE
A header out of the box by Maguire, a 'Chivita-stic swinging shot by Matic, a 'Maltina-stic' cross by Greenwood, an 'Orijin-al' shot by Fernandes and the ball was dancing one-corner inside the net!!


That counter-attack was just beautiful! It brought back memories of Rooney-Ronaldo-Tevez in the days of 'Igwe' Alex Ferguson.

3. MIDFIELD JUICE
The Matic-Pogba-Fernandes midfield collabo was once again on display and they shone brightly against Brighton.


Fernandes has now been involved in 10 goals with 6 goals and 4 assists. He was unlucky not to get a hat trick as his first effort met the woodwork. 

Matic has been simply outstanding and Pogba has been bright and sharp. May their collabo continue to "hit back to back".

4. AARON WAN-BISSAKA
Our 'Issakaba boy' has added some sauce to his game. His attacking has improved greatly in recent times. In addition to being a 'bustop' to every left winger, he has now become a 'chuku-chuku' in the flesh for left backs.

His delivery into the box has become much better and he now has 4 assists for United. "Carry go" Spider man!

5. MARTIAL VS BRIGHTON
Anthony 'Ikechukwu' Martial's record against Brighton makes one ask in a Naija way:"Na wetin dem give am chop?"
He has now played 6 EPL games against Brighton without a goal. Infact, he has only had only 2 shots on target! Tonight, the kind of marking they gave him is what we describe in Naija as "dem lock am throway key".

IN THE END, the ministry continues to move to the permanent site as United have now gone 15 games unbeaten with 11 victories, scoring 38 goals and conceding 4! 

Kudos to Harry 'Okuta' Maguire, his back crew and David 'Osinachi' De Gea for a fantastic job.
