    When Arsenal got that sickening winner yesterday, I had a feeling we were getting shafted today....but i didn't expect a mauling!

    Social media blackout for at least a week.

    We dropped 3 points like Spurs and Newcastle. It’s a blip! - Bad result yes but it doesn’t affect our season. It’s up to ETH now to make sure they don’t dwell on it!

    We were smashed just as badly last season, twice. Just not in goals.
    Tottenham lashed us 6-1 at home slightly further back.

    These mad results do happen. It's a disgrace, but moaning about it won't do much.

    The Spurs result was when we had Martial sent off very early. Last season when these results happened, we all knew we had started a free fall that didn't stop until this season, so yes there's cause for genuine concern and apart from that cause for genuine anger at this performance.

    How is it nonsense? It’s complete sense. We lost a game of football. Embarrassing yes. But it’s still just a defeat. We’ve seen this team all season and how well they’ve played in the majority of matches. We’ve been excited. Is all that undone by one defeat? Players should be stronger now to deal with this.

    I’d argue some of our defeats in other seasons were more embarrassing against far worse opposition.

    As I said, embarrassing yes, big time. But people need to stop acting like it’s the end of season and we’ve lost out on top 4 or something.

    The result isn’t down to one individual but I’m at odds with the way DeGea seems to go to bits every time we’ve played Liverpool, for at least the past 5-7 seasons.

    I know. Hate losing to Liverpool they are insufferable. It was numbing.
     
    Tonight I'm going to a music gig where the performer is a Liverpool supporter, and someone who is sometimes in his band is a United supporter

    I wonder if they've watched that, or did the sound check clash with it.

    I think 4-0 is a mauling. 5-0 an annihilation. Not even sure what 6-0is, let alone these dizzying heights. I would gladly have taken a mere mauling. This is like a banish-to-the-wilderness result.

    Not sure De Gea takes the brunt of today.

    Fred with dreadful positioning for goal 1 killed the game plan. Until then we were well in it.

    Shaw with some utterly farcical defending in there.

    The sort of ridiculous bad luck that happens when heads go as well, like McTom deflecting a ball twice and it falling right for Salah.
    Shaw lashing it off their player straight to Salah 2 yards out.

    Woeful.
     
    The defence combined was an abomination. Obviously the usual suspects like Bruno, Antony will get pelters but those goals conceded were tik tok meme levels of defending.
     
    Liverpool showed what can happen when they are handed possession as much as they were today. It is something I have noticed a lot this season with Utd. but not as much as to day. Just have to wait and see how much damage this result will do to the squad but a few of them are likely to fold under pressure. We can only wait and see who are the weak and who are the strong, but I think there are some weak ones here. Shaw was awful today but he was not alone, although very lucky to stay on the pitch. Fernandez was very poor but he has not been great since the World Cup restart. Shame to pick out individuals as nobody can hold their head up after that performance.
     
    We could have been two up before they scored the first goal but they were lucky to get the first goal and the second just after the start of the second half.

    Then our team just fell to pieces.

    I don't think it is true. It was a perfect day for Liverpool, everything worked for them while for us, nothing seemed to come off. A perfect storm that resulted in a big scoreline but I don't think, it should be used as some sort of indicator for future things. I hope it does help to rectify the levels of hype that started to become a little tedious. We haven't been playing well for the last 5-6 weeks, only exception being 1st half in 1st leg against Barcelona (iirc). We haven't done anything of note except for playing long balls into Rashford, who is in great form obviously.

    Onto the next game, stick to the basics. No overreactions now.

    Yep that’s when panic and desperation kicks in, we then just ended up making more mistakes.

    Everything Liverpool and Man Utd have been this season they werent today.
     
    I was still amazed Keane and G Nev seemed so confident we'd come back in the second half.

    It's like they have not watched us play there in the last 20 years.
     
    ETH needs to work on the mental aspect of our players now.
    That's what let us down today not Liverpool being that much better.

    Yup. We were not as good as the hype. This is a massive wake up call. Now these players have to show that they can come back from this.

    I have supported United since 68. I mean support. It’s football isn’t it? Shit happens. You don’t like it sod off and support City.

    Yet Shaw looked good first half. Some great runs and looked solid. But when his head went he became a liability.

    No he is correct, If this doesn't gut you to the absolute core , you are a prawn sandwich eating plastic fan who really doesn't support the club.

    Managers can't always hide behind the players - if you lose 7-0 to your rival who has their worst season in years - a lot of the fault has to fall on the manager. I dont believe in this - we win - ETH is a genious, we lose - the players are to blame.

    Yes the players are to blame - but so is ETH. And the consequences of losing 7-0 to Liverpool are so huge. You can't say - it's just a defeat. No - this is a lot more than that - this is the evidence that we are nowhere near we thought we were. I would consider this as back to square 1

    Get a grip, this is on the players. Just watch the goals we conceded, amateur hour to say the least.

    As I said to the other guy - you cant applaud the manager every time we win - and then blame the players when we lose. He is just as much to blame as the players - he messed up the team and the tactics.

    True. I am trying to analyze the match. Maybe we could say Bissaka would have started, maybe we would have played deep and try to catch pool on the counter. The more I think, all I just see are individual errors and a Liverpool team that really wanted to win. We were not that poor, our tactics just played into their hands
