Lukaku has become a shocking front man. I think we could potentially be better with the bottom 10 club strikers up front, they will at least give an out ball.

Why are we playing Fellaini as our playmaker? Thought he was coming on to be our focal point up front. May as well have brought Pogba on instead.
Yeah agree with this. Same applies to many players for me.Utd look as limited as Everton were here. A true reflection of the league table sadly.Has Lukaku held the ball up even once yet? No wonder our midfielders have poor pass completion, they play it forward to him and he just stands there whilst the defenders run in front of him.Liverpool with all the initiative. We're just there to spoil.The players are playing way better this half. Defending is tight. Just wish we could attack better.Caraggher saying we need Lukaku to hold the ball up......
They've fallen down to our level since the equaliser. Robertson for all his running has a fecking awful cross on him.Rom absent but in fairness those aren't passes to him, they are clearances....59 min
Lovren decides to shoot from miles out now, way wide.
Because hes a shocking player who costs us goal after goal.
This what we used to do before. Kick the hell out of others. Now we cannot even do that. How pathetic these days are.Well done Fellaini .Doing a job.If Liverpool win 4-1 we can't complain with such performance.Long kick off up to our big men and all three standing around while a Liverpool player has 5 yards and all the time in the world to head it back.Bailey and Lindelhof just need more game time
Yeah the rumor of buying Arnautovic doesn't sound as silly as it once did.
He actually looks like he dislikes the opposition and wants to get stuck in.It's as if Liverpool are playing a relegation bound team, wave after wave of attack.My god we're horrible to watchCaraggher saying we need Lukaku to hold the ball up......
He needs to actually get near the ball for that to happen. You could probably count on one hand how many touches he's had.Caraggher saying we need Lukaku to hold the ball up......
It's like trying to drink a bowl of tomato soup with a fork.Dalglish looks like he sleeps in a shop doorway.Gone full bottle job mode matter of time before we concede. Lukaku off please, Paul or Tony on.Lukaku offers nothing up front. Not an outlet for anything.Bailey been outstanding
And still they aren't creating chancesThis is pathetic. We’re playing like a bottom team.Aside from that win over Juventus, would an undeserved draw at Anfield to knock Liverpool off the top of the table while we remain 6th be our highlight?
Ridiculous.Liverpool front three hardly seeing the ball atm. Liverpool just lacking in the middle area for me today, thought it as soon as the line up was announced.
Shaqiri would be a decent sub for them.
Those aren't passes to him though, it's just clearances....Liverpool playing into our hands by shooting from distance. They need to be more patient to break down our bus.
This has been the case for the better part of 4 years running now
Exactly - these pundits annoy me! They just talk for the sake of talking61 min
It's a much slower start to the second-half compared to the how the first-half began, which is a good sign for us. Liverpool still seeing the majority of the ball but we're defending fairly comfortably and looking for chances to counter-attack. When we have got the ball we've been very wasteful though, giving it away cheaply or not holding it up well enough.Fellaini had single handedly evened up this game. I no longer feel like Liverpool are inevitably going to win.Every single Lingard pass is a, less than, hopeful, punt into space.
Every single one!Fellaini has done more in 15 minutes that matic has all season.
He's scoring the winner ain't he.Lukaku is shocking today. We have nothing to go on.
It's not surprising. He's been our best defender for a long while now. One bad game and all of a sudden he's our worst.- Status
