I don't think he would even be running in at the back post.
Fred needs help, whenever hes in the final third he has no support beause Matic just stays back
Based on the fact he hasn’t improved since we signed him. He loses the ball constantly and the play stops when it reaches him. Okay, “dogshit” might be an over exaggeration but I had great hopes for him to light up the world. He’s a good fair weather Player when your 2or 3 up but in a battle like this he’s anonymous. (Watch him score a worldie now)based on what exactly?
I would say more knee-jerk reactions than decisions!Good response to going behind. Shit corner to concede.
They'll probably get another one shortly after half time when we're still trying to wake up. We'll push and push, and they'll get the third around the 80th minute.In our current plight missing Pogba and Rashford
You know it’s bad when one of our best players is a youth product in his first season as a regular.
2 of which are injured due to poor management.As long as we play Lindelof we will never get in form with the defense.Liverpool are 10x better than us. It seem so easy for them, the way they find space. It will be an esst game for them.
Hope we really invest in our team so we can challenge them again.If Woodward had any sense he would wrap up the Fernandes signing during halftime, because otherwise his price will have increased by 40% by the time this shitshow is over.No more injuries is all I wanted from this game. Anything else is a huge bonus.
This weekend has been fine.. this result wont ruin it for me.Lindelof with a Lindelof type display really, it shouldn't surprise anyone.They've played within themselves after scoring because they know we won't score.
United will not score in this game it's just a case of whether they fancy a few more
That is utter guff. There was no speed in the last two games when he was man of the match? It is all about quality. Legs without quality is just that...legs.
Absolute nonsense, he was instrumental in our only clear cut chance in that half. People should learn how to support the team ffs. Leave your BS bile atleast until the game is done
No, I just don't understand those cheering mediocrity. Like all those in the Ole amazing person I admire Brigrade thread. This is a poor display.
Fred absolute taken out...Pawson...plays on. Massively influenced by the crowd. As weak a ref you’ll see.
Omg don’t say that you’ll be chased out of here
They can up their game by a few levels. But like Sir Alex teams, they do what's needed to get the wins and dont need to overdo it every week.
Missed his last goal then ?Other than the present scoreline, the game has gone exactly the way I expected it to go.
We can’t cope with them!Marking VVD on corners: I believe the idea is for one person to disturb his run up, and for a big fecker (Maguire) to win the duel.There are just too many players in this team that aren't good enough. They clearly see the passes but their either too scared or too bad to make them. They end up taking three touches, turning over possession and we get punished for it almost every time. It's not just today. It's against your Villas, your Watfords, we are just not good enough. Squad needs totally dismantling. The forwards alone are at an acceptable level.We need a goal threat up front. If we leave it how it is then I can see us conceding a second and Liverpool seeing the game out. Get Greenwood and Mata on for Williams and Pereira and go 4-2-3-1, with Greenwood up top.
I think we've done ok so far, but we need some attacking threat if we're going to get something out of this, or else we'll end up losing 2-0 but having not played too badly. Either that or a stroke of luck with a pen or a set piece goal.Not going down without a fight at least.More crap newsDoes anyone feel James is getting slower and slower? Maybe he is feeling the burden of responsibility on his shoulder. He started the season with a bang and now, he doesn't even feel like a Utd player.I’ll take 1-0 at HT. Reckon we can sneak a goal against them here.Today just shows extra much how bad we are as a unit in attack. So few patterns of play.
We have defended alright, but stupid to not mark van Dijk with Maguire in the box. How can you bloody leave the best header so free in the box?
Surely with a username like that you're the leader?
We were an inch away from scoring towards the end of the half.
Spot on assessment. Pawson is also giving all 50\50s to the scouse, which makes life difficult.
Would like to see some Greenwood in the second half.Pereira not making that ball in front of the empty goal was pathetic. May have been our only chance.Huge plus that we're only going in 1-0. You get the feeling that Liverpool could put 4 or 5 past us if they really wanted to.
Would bite your hand off for a draw in this game. We're just not in it at all. Can't see where the chances are going to come from and we're not good enough at attacking set pieces that I feel we could nick it there, either. Our best chance will be Liverpool making a defensive mistake or giving away a stupid penalty, and I can't really see that happening because we're not playing far enough forward for us to be in those kinds of positions anyway.If we could defend set pieces at all, we might still be level.
They are much better obviously but that was to be expected. At least it's not a humiliation so far.
I know James' pace is supposed to be a threat but I'd be tempted to take him off for Greenwood at half time, he's been woeful.Pereira looking well out of depth. Such a shame when you know the alternative will just hide in plain sight when he replaces him.
I hope Ole has a plan for the second half. Not sure what it’s going to be as zero cover in such vital areas.Happy with Shaw. We could potentially nick a point, but we are undoubtedly inferior.
Think my username and support of him as a player highlights my ability to distinguish his class as a player compared to as a manager. Unlike a lot of posters here.
Since we are mostly zonal I’m guessing Williams and Fred are on him just to make his life difficult(failing miserably) then Maguire/Lindelof clear it when in there zone.Fred marking VVD, comical. There's totally a plan!
Seems stupid to me and you would think you‘d go man to man. Bigger question why are both Shaw and Martial front post. Why not stick one of them on him and have Williams cover front post.
Unlucky for the kid on that first goal.- Status
