Liverpool are always capable of putting in these big performances. They had a rough start to the season then stuck 9 past Bournmouth. If you’re not 100% on it they can smash you, but it should never happen to a side like United with experienced players and high aspirations. We just gave up at 2-0.

Surreal. Not that bothered though because they aren't that good and we have been lately. A freak result.
I don’t care about the credit they’ve earned this season, every single one of those players can feck off. Absolute disgrace. 1-11 every single one of them gave up. cnuts.
What the hell was that?!We could have lost by 8?Overreactions? We got just got beat 7-0 by out biggest rivals, how could it be any worse?
I thought we had stopped this.
Heads will roll and I would expect a lot of changes on Thursday. Manager has to draw the line to retain credibility.

We cannot lose a game with any dignity at all can we?
Brentford, City and Liverpool in 1 season is shocking, all 11v11 too. Usually when you get a pasting like those it's because you're down to 10 men, but we conspire to get humiliated with all 11 players on the pitch.
The players have no sense of pride when a game is lost. Just play the game properly, take your 3-0 loss and get the feck out of there.

Almost had the bastards. Next time though heh
Every fecking shot went in. Move in
We played well in the first half. Rode their early momentum and nearly scored a couple of times. We conceded 2 goals at the worst possible time.
Then it’s just a perfect storm or our worst half of the season and their best by a mile. After the double header with Barca and the cup final, our thin squad was always going to turn out a performance like this at some stage.
Forget this one, write it off and move on to the next game. It’s important not to let this result affect our long term form.

All joking aside, I understood at 3-0 what type of game it was.
Simulation glitch, every slip helps them, every slip they have, just misses us, random bounces land to their talisman 12 yards out, his shot hits the bar and goes in, their striker heads it off the back of his head, our player kicks the ball against his own man and it lands to their player for a tap in, our RB stands IN THE GOAL not on the line.

And everytime it's against Liverpool
We were shit universally, but our owners leaving us with Weghorst as our only striker is unforgivable. We need to drive these scumbags out of our club.
Should have gone 5 at the back after 4-0.
Well, but we bottled it big time today. Not often in the last few months we've had to say that, but that's what happened. Loads of players put in their worst performance for ages at the same time? Not a coincidence. Anfield has been a graveyard too many times for us in recent years, it feels like it's hanging over us. We looked inhibited from the start, never believed we'd win, and when it started to go wrong, we gave up. I'm sure tiredness didnt help, but that's no excuse.
Hard to know where to start with the poor performances. Keeper was repeatedly bypassed far too easily. Backline looked shaky as hell. Midfield never got a hold of the ball, and gave up when the going got tough. Front line made a few chances early on but failed to bury them when needed. Even ETH was off key today, his selection didn't work and we were 3-0 down before we made a change. Plenty of blame to go round.
That said, 7 goals from those chances was pretty freaky. If this had "only" finished 3-0 or 4-0 I'd have called that a more fair reflection. But when you stop trying, you give your opponents the confidence to start banging in goals every time they kick the ball.
Doesn't really derail our season, as long as we can draw a line under today as a bad day at the office and move on. We're still on course for top four, have a decent chance in two cup competitions and have one pot in the cupboard. But it's a huge reality check for us, and ends any talk of a title run. 16 goals conceded away to City, Liverpool and Arsenal show that we've another level entirely to find in these big games before we have a chance of stepping up.

We were actually the better side in the first half. Completely lost it when that second goal went in.
Just forget 2nd half and move on. Think its more a mental block for us rather than a lack of quality. The scoreline is not the true reflection of the game. We were good for a good 45 mins. We managed their high tempo at start of 1st half, but failed to manage their high tempo in the 2nd half. Thats all.
One of the most bizarre games of football I’ve ever seen. Were the better team first half and were unlucky to go in a goal down then every single one of our players collectively shit the bed in the second half. Every mistake we made seemed to get punished and they basically scored from every shot on target they had. I just hope this doesn’t derail our season, 7-0 is a hard one to get over especially against our biggest rivals. I hope ETH goes through every one of them, embarrassing performance.
Ten Hag reluctancy in being pragmatic in certain key games may end up being his undoing here.
Klopp has coached his side for years on the three CMs shuttlers midfield with three fluid forwards, I expected ETH to start this game with Casemiro, Fred and Sabitzer to match Liverpool's energy with Bruno playing the false 9 while Rashford and Sancho will be inverting in a fluid style with bruno.
Be Pragmatic ETH and lastly stop the failed Wout experiment at 10 position.

Let the "don't be stupid, our cieling is top 4 at most" brigade have their fun then. Some people have been quick to shut down any talk of further ambition as if talking about it is bad or something.
Tough game, could've gone either way, but Liverpool just got lucky and managed to bundle in 7 goals.
The last time we lost by seven was in 1931. Wow.
I really thought this team and these players were past this. How ETH reacts will be huge. It is a VERY big deal to lose like this. 13-3 score combined at Etihad and Anfield is just nowhere near good enough. This has to be the last of these aberrations under ETH. It's just unacceptable.
Genuinely the shittest half of football I've ever seen United play, reminded me of my Tuesday night 5 a-side where we give up cos we're knackered, shit and can't be arsed anymore.
The first Gakpo goal was decent and against the run of play (hard to believe now). But from the first minute of the second half when they went 2-0 up we were absolutely deflated, lost our heads and got absolutely fecking trounced.
It's funny thinking back to beating Barca a day after Real battered Liverpool 5-2. We did exactly what Liverpool did against Real, only 10x worse.
Could give everyone 0/10 for that game, it's actually going to be difficult to decide who to drop for the next game because a case can be made for literally everyone including the goalie.

we've played every three days for what seems like the last six month's, were gassed. it was always gonna come to an end, just a shame its against these
The agenda peddlers who've decided it's three players they don't like who drag the rest of them down.Who the feck is giving players 2 ratings
Not one player gave an iota of a feck about that. Not one of them.
Some are either scared of hostile stadiums or treat a derby as any other game.
One of those where the players gave up and didn't care that United were on the end of a historic mauling, it's just us who have this burned into our minds forever.
It could be at the end of the season this will be looked back on as a horrible blip in a great year, maybe it's talked about as a spur we used to kick on and finish strongly. For me the coming weeks will tell us just how disastrous this result was, but that performance sure was disgusting and a team we hate and have laughed at all season long have bragging rights over us once again.

We were flat. And then lost shape. And then gave up. Feck off
How do you even lose 7-0? Even Arsenal with half their team out managed to score 2 goals in that 8-2 game.
Disgraceful performance, maybe the endless praises went to these players heads, I don’t know.
I’m ok with not seeing anyone involved today until after the international break, feck the lot of them.
At least we still have a positive GD (I think).

I know, what can you say
I missed the game, don’t have Sky. What the feck happened?
We do need a plan b to go pragmatic in this situation. A freak result. Even Liverpool have been beaten 7-2 by Villa and 6-0 by Stoke in recent years. It is just magnified because it’s vs us
Funny, i am still more pissed at giving easy game to Trent than fecking 7:0, just dont understand, all that blabling how ETH is preparing for weeks for a game, Lord of details they said and guess after all that myth he sent Bruno on him today lul.
Everything else is just whatever, Shaw lost, Bruno most obnoxious moaning cnut in the league hands down, nobody is even close.

Embarrassing and shambolic behavior.
After 2-0 or even 3-0 we should have kept it tight and saw the game through. A tough loss but kinda accepted.
Throwing the towel and deciding to not even put any more effort, losing by 7-0. Shambolic and unacceptable behavior.
Conceding 6 at Etihad and 7 at Anfield in one fecking season ? Do you have any kind of dignity ?

I actually don’t feel that bad. Yes it was humiliating but we matched them in the first half. We just conceded a silly goal at the start of the second half and lost discipline as we tried to get back into the game by pumping players up front.
We played badly yes but only after the second goal. We should build on the first half positives. It’s only ETH first season and the rebuilding will continue.

Pfft. Is that all you got?! Only 7. Weak!
Hope Liverpool have used up their luck for the season.
We need a strong leader to galvanize the team when we are down. Bruno is not it.

Don't even know what to say. A Liverpool team that have been poor this year... United in some of there best form in years and that happens. We should never ever be losing 7-0 to any team and that is just stunningly bad.
Sheer embarrassment.
We could've expected that the tough schedule would take its toll, but this is just inexcusable.
This is definitely gonna be a huge boost for them. As for us... we'll see
