Manchester United 2:1 Liverpool

Post-match discussion


Mon, 22 August 2022

Drink it up Utd supporters. Tonight's a seasonal highlight. TSB are below us in the table.

The gaffer is military made. Glazere OUT.
 
Regardless of the result, it’s the performance we’ve been waiting for.

It’s a different game when you want to score and stop the other team from scoring and are willing to put the work in to make it happen.

That said, this is no more than what Liverpool did when they were shite. Although to be fair they’re shite now. The circle of life.
 
So much better, and the new signings all played really well.

Penny for Maguire and Shaw's thoughts after that...
 
Here’s a narrative I bet the media won’t be pushing for the next week.. after two games, crisis club Man Utd bottom of the league. After three games, they are above the media darling that are Liverpool.
 
Martínez and Malacia best players for me. Bruno's workrate was utterly outstanding, pretty good on the ball as well barring the obvious hairy moments in our own half. Rashford kept making the right runs all game, glad he got his.
goal. Varane was solid. Great performance altogether.
 
Where's that knobhead Souness put that in ya pipe and smoke it. Get in!
 
That final whistle felt like coming up for air after quite some time under water.

I hope this gets the rust off Rashford. And imagine that we get to add Casemiro to the mix after this major boost! :drool:
 
First time in ages that I felt we played like a team with passion! No idea if it’s here to stay or if we played our cup final as they say, but I’m just enjoying the moment! Hopefully we can build on this though.
 
Been a long time waiting for a performance like that.
 
The best Monday night I’ve had in a very long time. Nervous last 10 minutes but we played some great stuff. The effort and commitment was first class. Both centre halves with cramp? Says it all.
 
Felt a little like Ole's wins vs City. So trying to not get too excited
 
We were due a league win against this lot.

Leapfrogging above them in the table is just a cherry on the top after all their taunts about our shitty start to the season.
 
We so needed that! Some positivity.

This is what hard work gets you. I hope the players keep working.

Very happy for Martinez. 2 games and the knives were out. Shows you his character that in one of the biggest games for us, he played his heart out.

Big up to young Malacia as well. Think `Martinez just edged him for MOTM.

All the players did their part - yes even McTominay! :) Hope Varane can stay fit.

Lots of work still needed but hopefully this win gives the whole team a lift.

Sooooo happy!!!
 
Really impressed with Martinez and Malacia. Miles different from seeing Maguire and Shaw. They were key to this win. Liverpool hardly gets a clear chance. Can't wait for Casemiro to start soon and stamp his authority in our defence further
 
Great win, 3 points, going back to our shell is something i wouldnt like to see, not in this manner because we could drop there.

They fought, some played better than other but overall it looked different which is positive.

Regarding Bruno, dunno what the feck was that overall, not only he was poor, tried to gift them goals but on top being obnoxious complainer and QQer, now he dives too and cherry on top, he is next level of cringe with behaviour.
 
Regardless of the result, it’s the performance we’ve been waiting for.

It’s a different game when you want to score, stop the other team from scoring and are willing to put the work in to make it happen.
Came here to same exactly this. Heart, passion, desire, fight. No cause ever lost.... But then the skill and technique to make it happen when you've got the ball.
 
According to the stats Liverpool had 17 shots to our 12, yet cannot recall a single big chance bar the goal that wasn’t created by our own players.

Should’ve won by more:devil:
 
Fantastic, United looked angry today. If had to have one piece of criticism, I wished United could keep the ball better and not invite so much pressure on themselves.
Could have three or four today if we took more of our chances.
