United would do well to get knocked out of the CL twice in one season

If they let us back in we would be more than happy to get knocked out twice I'm sure.

Maguire missing the cross but getting lucky with the block on Firmino.

 

[Alex h]

It's so glaringly obvious that Bailly is a much better fit into our defence.

Was thinking the same mate

 

[manic111]

Can see Cavani getting a goal or two

 

[planty]

Can see United knicking this late on if it stays like this.

 

[Purdy]

Can see Cavani getting a goal or two

Uruguayans do enjoy this fixture

 

[Mark1989]

**** sake salah, why is he ******* about with it in his feet, just shoot!

 

[adam cool dude]

Martial needs benching so much talent but so little fight. He looked really slow today.

 

[manic111]

Salah looks so short of confidence

 

[Ayahuasca]

Salah looks so short of confidence

Just reducing his Real fee.

 

[Robbo]

So dumb playing out from the back like this against an aggressive press.

 

[adam cool dude]

TTA has been pretty poor this season. He was best right back in the world last season.

 

[Purdy]

So dumb playing out from the back like this against an aggressive press.

I mean it’s how you’ve created your decent chances, you just have to accept it’s not going to work and invite more pressure sometimes, Liverpool in no danger of scoring so seems worthwhile

 

[fez]

Can see Cavani getting a goal or two

Would need to create some sort of chance for that to happen.

We have been dire.

Ignoring Liverpools lack of cutting edge they have shown us what a decent team looks like on a football pitch.

I think Liverpool are suffering from post title blues and not having a crowd behind them to keep their energy levels up.

 

[Calpol]

Fernandes has been gash today

So dumb playing out from the back like this against an aggressive press.

It is dumb but we need to do it otherwise you never will get to the top.

 

[Ayahuasca]

Fernandes has been gash today

I run the risk of him doing something sublime now. Hasn’t he always struggled against the top 6?

In games or teams where they can’t play everything through him with ease he goes missing.

His stats when Pogba plays drop off massively.

 

[Converge]

Fernandes has been gash today

Yeah his passing has been poor as Martin Tyler spotted too!

 

[Mark1989]

I think utd will take the points from us now Cavani is on.

Take the context into account. Liverpool have been boss for the past two years and have an amazing home record. Man Utd are basically still boys and need to grow into men which is slowly happening. Going to Anfield and getting a result is going to be daunting to even the best.

 

[Purdy]

I wonder will it ever been highlighted in the absolute waste ‘knuckleball’ free kicks are, such a dog**** technique that requires massive luck to work

 

[Purdy]

Might as well start letting Shaqiri just shoot anywhere near their box, so so bad
