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

I'm only here for the meldown....

We'll lose against Leicester too and I'm sorry for being negative but it's going to be a car crash of a season
 
:lol: are you serious?

Pogba, Lukaku, DDG, Young, Valencia, Martial, Matic, Fellaini, Rashford, Lingard and Freds only started and you are talking about our lack of depth? Liverpool have their whole squad back basically. Behave yourselves ffs.

You’re right but even when we play Liverpool with our full squad, Mourinho still parks the fecking bus and plays shit house football. Today he did the same thing but with worse players.

He’s the worst possible manager for us. I’d rather have Ronald fecking McDonald.
 
Pre-season or not this has been a fecking embarrassment. Horrible defensively, absolutely nothing going forward, and we let that no necked midget score a bicycle goal against us. Can't wait to get some of our best players back.
 
It’s still only pre season though so I don’t really care. Would’ve preferred us not to park the bus in a pre season friendly but what can you do.
 
Relax lads, it's just a meaningless preseason game.
Losing to Liverpool in pre-season is like watching someone shag your wife, but he wore a condom so there's always that. We've still got battered off Liverpool. I dont like to see this.
 
Mostly reserve players on both teams but this game has clearly established who the superior coach is....and yes it is just a friendly but f......me whatever side Jose puts out is just so painful to watch!
Darmian on the other hand is everything and more that has been wrong with the club in the last 5 years !
It's the one who's won more trophies you melt.
 
it will be even more beautiful when we beat them in the league this coming season.
 
Mate, sharing your views is what the forum is about. Sorry you don’t like my view, but maybe time to let it go. As for the therapist analogy...wtf are you talking about? Because I said it’s shit watching us? Yes, that’s what one goes to the therapist for. Christ on a bike.

'Sharing your views' is a nice way to put it. Sharing implies some sort of discussion or openness to another point of view.

All you've done is say that you hate the manager, the way we play and don't enjoy watching us. What sort of discussion does that promote?

it will be even more beautiful when we beat them in the league this coming season.

I can't wait because it'll be amazing. This is the biggest rivalry in english football but Liverpool have an atrocious record against us that it's not even a rivalry.

This is Jose that Kloop hasn't beaten since he takes over United in 2016?
 
I haven’t watched the game but I remember when we smashed the US tour in Van Gaals first season. We beat Liverpool, Madrid and City then lost against Swansea in the first league game.

Pre-season means nothing.
 
We're going to have a lower turnout than the XFL at the next US Tour.
The foreign fans will turn to the best football playing sides who win titles. We will have loads buying the city shirts and chucking Utd in the bin
 
Only watched the 2nd half but what a terrible performance it was. Absolute shitshow. Liverpool just overwhelmed us and had too much intensity. We were too slow in everything. Slow in the mind. Slow in the legs. Clueless in attack. Even when Fred, Chong, Gomes came on I had a bit of excitement but we couldn't get the ball off them.

Should have explained myself more. Of course majority of first XI missing, but a few injuries and we are down to slim pickings is what I’m saying.

A great work out against a team that had better options on the day.
 
Relax lads, it's just a meaningless preseason game.

To be fair a lot of the problems being discussed have been around for a while and there’s been little sign than Jose is capable of implementing a more attractive or fluid style of football.
 
Would not worry about this at all. Not our first team and Mourinho judging by his demeanor and comments could not care less about it. If it were up to him I would say he would prefer not to have the preseason in america or where ever given it is a world cup summer.
 
We'd have been better cancelling the tour and playing Bury, Oldham & Rochdale and staying at home.

What's the point when you've got 90% of the bloody team missing?
 
feck me we had one maybe two guaranteed starters in our line up. Its a non contest.

Of course and I agree however I don't think anyone can deny than Liverpool play a significantly better brand of football than us and this isn't going to change irrespective of players available, and they have improved the quality of their squad with some astute purchases. What you will find is that we'll be terrible in the first part of the new PL season given that our pre-season isn't going well and our best players won't be at full fitness. We will improve but my feeling is that we will lose ground early and therefore will struggle again to challenge for the league this year. Realistically, I'm expecting a top 4 finish.
 
Liverpool don’t half have some odd looking feckers in their squad.

Anyway, we were shit but people need to breathe. Pre-season means very little...we’ve had pre-seasons where we smashed some of the best teams in the World in July and won feck all.

And for the people saying we should’ve signed Shaqiri...deary me.

I could agree with that first half, we got mullered by there second string majority of the second half. I agree with the post you replied to though, they have added strength and creativity to there midfield especially after losing Emre, depth to attackign options with Shaquihri (who will be from th bench) and actualyl now have a good keeper. This game is meaningless towards the season ahead of course, but painful to watch
 
Pre season results mean nowt but added to the transfer window so far, it’s been a fecking shit show, no wins, grumpy manager, disillusioned fans etc.
It will be another long and boring season ahead I reckon with a top 4 battle and many one shot on target games ahead. Really pray we get some signings in and get rid of Darmian the useless turd.

They do but that doesnt stop us beating them in the season does it?
