Liverpool 0:0 Manchester United

The fact that we can sit here being disappointed with a point after a game at Anfield, tells how far we has come as a team. We created the two biggest chances in the game and could easily have won.

absolutely But it’s pretty clear we are still lacking that extra piece of attacking quality to push us over the top. Bruno martial and Rashford were all really poor today. Our defenders were good.

Yep, can’t disagree with that.

Today was a huge missed opportunity I feel.

Liverpool dominate first 20, but few clear chances

Not poor, but surely inexperienced playing together in that role/positions?!

Fabinho's played there most of this season.

It really isn’t a bad point on reflection. I reckon if you put Van dijk for Wijnaldum in their team today and Henderson moves into midfield, that’s their strongest line up (unless they think Jota starts for them these days). I’m less disappointed now than I was immediately after the final whistle. They will know we’re a proper team again after today.

Haven't read any of comments in previous pages, did anyone ask why rashford was pulled back when taa fouled Shaw in injury time, there was no Liverpool defenders in his way

A draw is better then a loss but I think there’ll always be a what if... what if Ole played Pogba in a central midfield role. And we went out to outplay this Liverpool team.

A '0-0' score line never sits well in any games, especially ones like these. There is relief of course and some great accolades for our defenders in how they dealt with Mane, Salah etc.
However, yet again we squandered two great chances (personally I think there were three great chances, Marcus ran himself into trouble when he could have passed to Cavani or Pogba) leaves you feeling that if you are going to base your play on a counter-attacking style, then you just have to take your chances, especially in big games.

The best bit for me was Klopp's post match comment that, "with so many good players they play defensive" (need the German accent to go with it) we were somehow attempting to 'park the bus,' and even the MOTD2 panel had to argue with that!

"Still on top of the World, Ma" ... paraphrased and with apologies to Jimmy Cagney (White Heat 1949)

Can’t tell if serious..

We'd have won if we had Bailly on the pitch, not struggled to get out of our own half forcing us to do last ditch clearances all game. The whole team would've been braver and higher up the pitch.

If Vicky understanding Norwegian doesn't play a part in this favouritism then it must be that he looks cute in dresses.
