Man Utd winger James: Brighton couldn't handle pressing game

Manchester United winger Daniel James was delighted to be part of their 3-1 defeat of Brighton.

James shone on the day as United rediscovered their best form in the Premier League on Sunday.

James said, "The high press paid off, that's what we have been about all season, playing with energy right from the start.

"We were a little bit edgy when they scored and it was good to score again on the break. But we could have scored also seven or eight goals.

On teammate Marcus Rashford missing an easy tap-in, he added: "Marcus normally scores a lot of those goals, thankfully when he missed we were already 3-1 up."
