    Thiago has fouled 7 times in one half and not been booked.

    Fabinho should have been sent off.

    Liverpool fans claim we have paid off the refs.
     
    I have no idea what VDB is doing on the pitch. He is virtually non-existent
     
    Got better as the half went on but we really need to be more ruthless and the likes of VdB and McT need to up their game. They've both been chasing shadows and had little to no impact.
     
    Swap Pogba and VDB around. We need a safer approach in cm and a risk taker up front.

    Shaw's been the best player on the pitch.

    I think this might actually be the best performance I've seen out of him ever. He's been all over that left side. Doing well at both defending and attacking. It's like watching a prime Evra.
     
    Everyone commenting on Wrightys coat; completely ignoring Alan Shearer doing his best impression of a cat-burgaling, lesbian bus-driver.

    Yep, he's a whole other animal on the left. He looks so much more confident and dangerous.

    He's been a monster so far. I'd actually keep that front three and put Martial in for Cavani against tired let's until he finds some form again.

    Most of what he does is quality, but it always feels as if he is at the edge of the game.

    Good summary

    I just dont understand why he is mostly used as an attacking midfielder when his relatively low risk but polished game seems better suited to playing deeper

    Not a no 10 for me, much better player playing slightly deeper, where he can get on the ball and detect the play like vs Watford. Like he did for the pass to Rashford for the goal

    thought donny was starting to grow into the game. needs a run in the team to get his confidence going
     
    Did anyone else see Robertson screaming at Greenwood to try and put him off before the goal :lol:
     
    When are the coaching staff going to realise that
    with McTominay it’s virtually playing with 10 men in games like this? Matic, Fred, VdB deeper would all be better options
     
    This should be the front 3 moving forward with Martial rotating in when Cavani needs a rest
     
    McTominay-Pogba is a horrible pairing. Barely an ounce of positional nous between them. Pogba, at least, can actually play football.

    On a positive note, this is the best Rashford has played in months. We’re a better team than this lot.
     
    VDB was decent enough, some good connections with him, wtf is wrong with people here? Is it only great or shit, no middleground? Bloody hell.

    Stop overrating him. He hasn't been that visible. Rashford and Shaw have been fantastic, plus you can't overlook the run that he had a full stop on. Outside of the flick on to Shaw, hasn't been too special. He' s clearly an attacker though and his flick and one two's are deadly. I really would like to see him on the right at some point.

    This is my first comment on him and I’m not overrating him :lol: . He’s playing well, not great though. Could have scored had Greenwood passed it to him at the start. And that pass across when he was in front of Allison. Players need to give him the ball when he’s attacking and going for the run, instead of ignoring him everytime. feel like he’s going to score.
     
    Good half of football. We're clearly the better team today but there were parts in which Liverpool were on top.

    We should have more goals for that showing. Need to keep it up. Only worry is that we scored with a counter attack as opposed to taking advantage of our many attacking phases of play.

    Ole has clearly told this team that they are good enough to play out against Liverpool, and to stop looking for the early pass every time!

    Apart from giving it away in midfield, we have absolutely dominated this game. I’d swap McTominay for Matic and then he won’t give the ball away the same.

    Madness. McT only gave it away once that I saw and had a great half. Maguire and Pogba were more guilty of giving it away.
