Preseason Tour Game 4: Man Utd v Liverpool (ICC, Saturday 28th July 22:05 BST)

Why are we playing those games If we won't even give youngster a chance? We are so shit!
 
People cant wait to have a moan round here. You used to see quite a lot of decent discussion but now its just page after page of pointless, parroted sound bites.
 
FFS. Its a pre-season friendly. Ok its Liverpool but chill the Fick out. This is nowhere near the first team, it hasn't been great but it will come once the first team players comeback and the fitness and rhythm sets in.

Liverpool havent been impressive, nor have we. That is because its ficking pre-season. Bad ref aswell.

everyone needs to chill out.

This is pre-season yes - but do you think these players will get magically better in 2 weeks ? It's actually possible to run in pre-season - Liverpool do it.
 
It’s a friendly, in July. Without de Gea, Young, Jones, Valencia, Matic, Pogba, Lingard, Martial and Lukaku. A meaningless game to give players some exercise, have a word with yourself.

Why? It’s all about mentality. The mentality is always reductive, negative. The personnel is almost irrelevant. Have you even been watching the last 24 months. Try and think before you start offering banal cliches and acting condescending.
 
Blackett or CBJ never played the same amount of games as Scott. How about you leave the wee cnut alone and enjoy the match?
And what does that prove?? we had no alternatives in that position, now Andreas is back and in form and we bought Fred he will get very little time before going out on loan or eventually leave. Actually had a lot of games to prove himself but barely impressed to have a shot in a season where we finally have quality in midfield. I will leae him alone but it just pains me that we invest our invaluable time on him when he's clearly not good enough
 
I know it’s a friendly but why are we bouncing long balls from the keeper up the field and not playing our way out? Comical watching Sánchez against VVD in the air in the first half.
 
Freezed the pen many times, looks like Herrera clips his left foot. Not so clear though
 
I think people who use pre season friendly game to excuse the team need to realize that it is the result that should not matter in those. But, the playing style, absolute lack of idea and imagination of our playing style actually matter as we are preparing for a long season.

This 3-5-2 or whatever shit makes us look vulnerable on the wings for both defending and attacking although obviously we have not had time to make it solid yet and we might be running out of time.
 
Why are we playing those games If we won't even give youngster a chance? We are so shit!

That's what I don't get. What's the point of a back 5 with Darmian and Mitchell? We are clearly useless in attack without the missing guys. Why not give more time for gomes/greenwood/Chong and see if they can add some spark to a dull attack?
 
This is pre-season yes - but do you think these players will get magically better in 2 weeks ? It's actually possible to run in pre-season - Liverpool do it.

The players that aren't going to play in 2 weeks are not going to get magically better in 2 weeks. Sack Froggie sell Greggs.
