Liverpool 4:0 Manchester United

Post-match discussion


Tue, 19 April 2022

This club has forgotten how to win and realized how to lose.
The only players I would keep on this squad are:

De Gea (and yes his distribution is a problem)
Bruno
McTominay
Fred
Telles
Elanga
Sancho
maybe Rashford but I think he needs to new team.

The good thing is, this summer is going to be a mental reset for this team. I just hope we make some good moves to get players in.
That’s quiet depressing if I’m honest!
 
After a good nights sleep, I am thankful that what we call a horrific side (and it is by our standards) puts us in 6th with an outside shot at the Top 4. It really sucks to have such a gap between us and the title contenders but things could be far worse. At least we are not in Everton's position.

Only ones I care about, the rest can do one.....Only 2 starters, maybe 3 if Varane can stop being crocked for us.

Elanga -squad player for now
Sancho- starter
Fred- squad middie
Rashford - I give him chance with ETH
Bruno - needs a manager reset more than anyone
Lindelof - 3/4 CB
Varane - get healthy a starter
DDG- of ETH wants him

Other youngins of course....
 
Are you for real? Were you blind to the god awful pass from Maguire? That was on Maguire. If you can’t see that, then please seek help.

Also, why have you spent so much time gathering all those quotes from posters just to criticise a young player like Hannibal? I’m astounded.

I'm not criticising him, I just find the massive praise heaped on him a little strange considering his involvement in the 4th goal and his limited minutes. If he had played well for a 90 min game, I'd understand it a little more.

I think it's still too low a standard from the fans to praise someone for running around with energy for a few minutes at the end of a game.
 
Wow… still unable to quite digest the humiliation of that. I’ve never felt more dissociated from this team than I do now. Can’t relate to almost all of that squad. Shocking.
 
This made me laugh
You can’t expect a team to dominate for a full 90 mins.

Liverpool had the game won and were just in 1st gear when the second half started.

Are you Gary Neville?

The United performance was objectively good for the first half of the second half. And no team “has the game won” at 2-0 up. That spell wasn’t just about Liverpool playing badly. We did actually play well.
 
You know your club is in trouble when my Liverpool supporting friends didn’t even mention it
 
At least we now only have a handful of matches left to endure, and then Im away to USA for a few months. Hopefully by the time I return there will have been a few changes made but its going to take whole sale changes over a number of years to put us back where we belong, competing for trophies, playing attacking, exciting football.

Glad you’re capable of laughing. Still dazed at what I saw !
 
I just dont see effort with this team. I think it has/ had too much star power. These guys just dont hustle. I saw hustle on RR's first game, and since then its been drab.
 
But, ball playing centre back :lol:

At least Smalling would have smashed it into the stands.

Peak Smalling is still, by some distance, the highest performing Utd CB post Fergie.

Not without his flaws of course but it is a little amusing that so many were convinced that it was his passing holding Utd back and that bringing in 2 ball playing CB's(which Maguire and Lindelof are) would push us to the next level.
 
Mohammed Salah came out after that game and said United's midfield "made their life easy."

Basically saying to the world our midfield is shit.

Mate it's been shit for years and nothings been done about it.

Maguire post Fergie still for me

I liked Smalling but squashed in between his injury prone years he only had one good season for me. 2015-16.

Maguire before this season for two years was good to consistently solid.
 
You guys are much stronger fans than me. I kinda checked out of football a few months ago because i just couldn't face up to the pain that this club brings me. The constant recylcing of managers and players it just gets too much. Some of my fav players like Rashford are just shells of themselves and wtf happened to Greenwood? What is wrong with our club? I was here for the Moyes years but somehow this feels significantly worse and I can't explain it.

I've seen this take a lot online but for me it is pretty clear he is talking about how the Liverpool midfield is making life easy for him (Salah) and his fellow attackers. Can't really fathom why 90% of the media and tweets interpret this so wrong.
