Football expert Jamie Phellett expressed his opinion regarding the transfers of Dutch midfielder Donny van de Beek and attacking midfielder Edinson Cavani to Manchester United. After suffering a defeat at home to Brighton with a score of 1:3, he stated that "the reason for the defeat lies in the transfers. Donny van de Beek spent 600 million pounds sterling, and many of them do not match the level of play in another major club."

Brighton is currently in ninth place in the table with 4 points, while Manchester United is in 13th position. When asked about the disappointment regarding Marcus Rashford not being on the field to help the team, he replied: "No." Under pressure from journalists, he added: "Yes, guys, Brighton has six players who could be in the main lineup of Manchester United."
