The former Sport Lisbon coach was not happy with his team's loss against Seagulls, and Alli reiterated his words during an exclusive interview with us.

"I don't think there's a lie in what he said. You can see how poor this team is, and I am sure Amorim put in a lot of work to make the team deliver, but they do other things on the pitch," he said.

"It's no longer exciting to watch Manchester United, especially those of us who witnessed Sir Alex Ferguson's dominant era.

"I just want the new board to listen to Amorim and get him all the players he requested early in the next summer transfer window."

Manchester United will hope to bounce back from their defeat against Brighton when they welcome Rangers to Old Trafford in the next match in the Europa League.

The Red Devils need a win against the Scottish giants to keep their hopes of qualifying for the Round of 16 alive.
