    No problem if we set up like we did at Anfield- we could have nicked that game if Garnacho had scored from a counter attack.

    Having watched Liverpool v City yesterday I really fear for us.
    The scousers really outplayed City and were unlucky not to win it, mind you I haven’t seen City play that shit before (in recent seasons that is).
    My only hope is that the “magic of the cup” will sprinkle some stardust on us and we somehow win and go on to lift the cup.
    My head says 0 - 3 Liverpool, my heart 2-1United, I pray it’s the latter.

    City play their worst games in Anfield. Only game they have won there recently was with no crowd in attendance.
     
    I have a feeling we’ll win and still everyone on here will moan it wasn’t good enough.

    At this point we could stuff them 8-0 (we won't) and people will still moan about how many shots they had.

    If we play a decent game and win, you won't hear any moaning from me.

    But if we spend most of the game cowering in our half, Liverpool forget to bring their shooting boots, and we score a lucky deflection off Van Dijk's backside, I'm gonna moan. I'll be happy we stopped the Mickey Mouse quadruple, but I'll also moan.

    If we play a good side then I dont think that's completely unreasonable to be fair. We should be able to play a bit more progressive with two full backs fielded plus Hojlund.

    Every United fan on this forum would moan if we managed to beat our worst rivals? That is a bold prediction!
     
    Can't summon up much confidence I'm afraid. I'm not a betting man, but if I was then there's no way it would go on a home win.

    If we had key personnel fit then I'd have a bit more hope we could maybe sneak a win. Though even with a full strength side I'd still fully expect them to be playing more like the home team and the 'big' team and us adopting a smaller team away tactic - which is a real shame and something we just shouldn't be doing as a Plan A.

    It's more understandable without the likes of Martinez, Shaw, Malacia, Hojlund and Martial - so all our left footed defenders and #9's, which has really unbalanced the teams we can select. But however we approach it, really can't see anything but a Liverpool win.

    After seeing Liverpool's inhaler-fuelled hyper-pressing yesterday and our attempts at passing on Saturday, I can't see anything but a battering.

    Please, you fecking useless shower of bastards, end their quadruple chances and give the fans one fecking thing to be happy about this season. One good performance. One.
     
    Want to see our players rise to this..... dont shrink

    show some heart and fight

    Ten Hag make us hard to beat.

    No excuse for this to be a battering.

    Ok, but pretty much everyone.

    Personally i think pretty much everyone here would be delighted with a win, regardless. It’s Liverpool. A win is a win is more true in these games than most other games.
     
    Just seen an update, hojlund Maguire and AWB are all in contention to play in this game.
     
    If we batter them 8-0, even if it’s the result of 8 horror pk decisions, I’m pretty sure the general reaction here will be delirium, not moaning.
     
    Expecting a player who was close to joining us like Gakpo to have a worldie against us. As per usual it seems with any player who almost joined us or left us.

    That wouldn't happen if you played this game a trillion times, what would happen 99% of the time is they will have 20+ shots and vastly outplay us, which is what will happen, which is why people will moan.

    Was the obvious hyperbole lost on you?
     
    Have to stand up and be counted in this one. I think the occasion can work for us. Garnacho is so important because he inspires the team through his endeavor.. which we desperately need. His attitude makes good things happen for him.

    Liverpool are flagging a bit imo... they have been brilliant to cope with their injury list and remain in so many competitions. But at some point that lack of quality and experience will show. However, my head says that Salah, Nune, Diaz etc may just want it that bit more, as has been the case all season, sadly.

    One disallowed goal for LFC, two yellow cards, one for each team. Final score 2 - 1 to Liverpool.

    I have a feeling that after the fairly sh*t VAR decision to not give them a clear peno May yield a couple of handy ones against us.

    Let's fecking go. With all our players coming back from injury in Jan, I thought we could play this in the City game and really see how far away we are tactically. The team's good enough on paper, so if the game just looks like an extension of the City game with 25% possession and shot after shot from Pool, then I'm done with Ten Hag.

    Sure if it's 8-0. It would be some moaning (and justifiably so) if we sneak a 1-0 result thanks to a dodgy penalty with most of the game being one way traffic.
