[DavidDeSchmikes]

considering the opponent and stadium and considering the last 2 messes against Wolves and Newcastle, not a bad half.

 

[FireballXL5]

Finishing aside, I think we've been excellent. Best half for ages.

 

[r0663664]

Hoijund should always be shooting with his right, not left. Low quality striker at 70 million pound, who made that decision.

 

[JinnerJamie]

They have been lucky

 

[Ayoba]

He's had 1 or 2 screamers in his time to be fair but his conversion rate must be lowwwwww

I recall 1 against Sheffield United a couple of years ago. Nothing since

 

[Nogbadthebad]

I'll say it again, if we had a reliable striker, not a worldy, just a guy who will put 1 in 5 chances away, we'd be a different team.

Amorim's side creates more chances, we just have no one to put them away. And no, Rasmus is not that guy, if he ever will be, its 2+ years away.

 

[Reiver]

Mainoo's having a great game

He is. Still not good enough for some though

 

[Ole'sgunnarwin]

We're just never gonna score in this ground again are we?

 

[Scarlett Dracarys]

and people say getting in a better striker wouldn’t make any difference

Who said that?

 

[ha_rooney]

Should be ahead. Solid performance so far.

 

[Redfrog]

Hojlund is bang average

Wait 10 years before to judge. Once he will spend his entire Time here while earning a bucking load to score in Europa, we could say it.

 

[Redplane]

Bit shocking Pool haven't figured out yet they should probably stop going thru the center every time

 

[Tom Van Persie]

Ugarte has been brilliant.

 

[Swedish_Plumber]

They have been lucky

Always have been

 

[Rapsel]

Liverpool won’t be this bad second half.

Curious to see what Slot will do.

 

[Amsterdam Devil]

Amad is missing for whole parts of the game. He has to play in a position where he can be more involved.

 

[Scanny]

Decent first half from United. Should be a goal up. I’d take a draw tbh. Hope they manage to keep this up for the second half. Completely quietened the Anfield crowd by half time.

 

[astracrazy]

Really like Ugarte. He’s a player to work with.

He should know this system inside and out. Should be first on the team sheet.

 

[Berbasbullet]

Liverpool will have us in 1st 15 of second like normal. But delighted with this!

 

[Fortitude]

We simply need better upfront. It’s not hojlunds fault he’s not good enough

It’s too much too soon for him and he’s getting folded by the pressure. Looks like he has the weight of the universe on his shoulders doing the most elementary things. Confidence is on the floor so even when real chances come along, he doubts himself.

Brutal catch 22

 

[RG77]

What was he even trying ?

Replay showed him just wanting to get it on target. No single thought about the best way to finish that.

He is a very poor player and you guys keep buying absolute dross like that for years.

 

[Amsterdam Devil]

First half was oke.

 

[crossy1686]

5 defenders again. This will be a painful watch.

7-0 was worse. Not losing at Anfield and playing with 5 at the back isn’t the worst thing that’s ever happened

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

Dalot should be docked a week's wages every time he shoots from outside the box.

I’m that case he’d be at the job centre very soon.

 

[MyOnlySolskjaer]

That was a 9/10 half from Ugarte.

 

[lex talionis]

Two glorious chances on goal. Very decent stuff.

 

[Hammondo]

Maguire, De Ligt, Ugarte, Mainoo all very good. Given us a real firm base.

Maguire I thought has been clumsy.

 

[Tiber]

We have zero goal threat but hey atleast they haven't scored either

 

[united for life]

We're just never gonna score in this ground again are we?

Not with hojlund it as 9 it seems

 

[saivet]

Frustrating not to be ahead but that was a really good half from us. Definitely our best understanding Amorim. This is different to the City, where City were shite, I think this has been about us playing well rather than Liverpool being poor.

 

[Reiver]

Best half of football I've seen from us under Amorim

 

[Mike Smalling]

We've been equal to them. Hope we can keep it up in the second half. There is a chance to get something.

 

[Exiled_Red]

Decent half but how did we assemble a team so short on technical ability and so physically weak?

We can't pass out of the press because our team lacks the technical quality and we dont physically break the press because we have a frail team. Its a bad combo.

And I love Mainoo, but his passing has got to improve. He gives away some very routine passes.

 

[Heinzesight]

Played well. Should be winning.

 

[DJ_21]

They're not bad our players are actually bringing the fight.

No but they’ll up their game 2nd half

 

[Sassy Colin]

Interesting how we need 6 defenders to stop 1 attack, whereas Liverpool only need their goalkeeper or a defender to block every half chance we have.

 

[2 man midfield]

Been the better side, just can’t finish

 

[Sylar]

Rasmus missed the same chance against Newcastle, not good enough

At least he hit the target this time

 

[pseudo_canadian]

Does Dalot try to give the ball away?

 

[r0663664]

Why our passing is so poor? I see so many simple passes that are misplaced.
