Jamie Carragher: How ‘out-of-this-world’ Brighton figured out Man Utd thanks to Roberto De Zerbi’s tactical switch

“The football we are seeing from Brighton right now is out of this world,” said Jamie Carragher of the team. We’re watching one of the Premier League’s top teams, in my opinion, and unquestionably a top manager.

Jamie Carragher lauded Brighton’s “out-of-this-world” football and said Roberto De Zerbi’s side are one of the best in the Premier League after they adapted their tactics to beat Manchester United 3-1 on Saturday.

Brighton, sixth-placed finishers last term, won for the fourth time in five games this season as goals from Danny Welbeck, Pascal Gross and Joao Pedro secured a commanding victory at Old Trafford.

Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher took an in-depth look at their triumph on Monday Night Football, with an emphasis on how they adjusted to Manchester United’s surprise formation change.

Erik ten Hag’s team, who typically adopts a 4-2-3-1 formation, instead used a midfield diamond. This forced De Zerbi to demonstrate his tactical prowess by altering Brighton’s strategy mid-game, which allowed the Seagulls to take advantage of United’s weakness out wide.

“Man Utd’s system caused problems for Brighton”
Whether it was because they didn’t have any wide players available or because they wanted to try and get [Marcus] Rashford and [Rasmus] Hojlund at the top end of the pitch, Carragher said: “Manchester United came in with a different system.

There’s no denying that De Zerbi and his players were severely inconvenienced by this formation because they were unaware of it until the game had already begun. They had difficulties not only with the ball but also without it. They tried to implement a man-marking system but ran into difficulties.

“If you look at the first 19 minutes, before Brighton scored, you can see how dominant Manchester United was in terms of their shots, touches in the opponent’s box, and passes in the final third, as well as how frequently they gained possession while Brighton was attempting to build up from the back.
