Topic: Half time: Manchester United 1-0 Liverpool

[GreatEx]

I've been avoiding gloating over Man U's situation this week because I had a feeling this was coming. I honestly think our wonderful Liverpool team is cooked and needs a massive overhaul.

[Mister Flip Flop]

Pathetic commentary honestly.  Just shocking. You could hear Neville screaming for fuck's sake.

Turn the sound off

[west_london_red]

We get one and these lot will shit themselves.

[MJD-L4]

Was that Neville screaming "YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!" when they scored? Couldn't work if it was him or just the mic picking up someone in the crowd.

Yeah that was Rat Face. Disgustingly biased commentary as usual.

[CS111]

From the mancs in crisis to us in a crisis

[Tonyh8su]

This is pure insanity the bullshit from Sky. When have we EVER cut to the gantry to see what Gary Neville thinks of a half time scoreline?!?!?

[Sudden Death Draft Loser]

It's either a hangover from last season or Klopp and co have got the training regiment completely wrong, either way I'm 45 minutes away from putting a line through the season, not based on the results, but the performances. Something is fundamentally wrong with this side at the moment, and they aren't looking like fixing it any time soon.

Totally agree. My mental health ain't the best ATM and this really isn't helping.

Nice over reaction

[Flaccido Dongingo]

Have we been ahead at any moment this season?

Conceded first in out last 7 games or something like that

[lollysportswasher]

If Firmino wants to play as a midfielder, make him a full-time midfielder. He's not even a false 9 at this point he's literally playing on the half-way line the whole game and we have no presence upfront.

[King Kenny 7]

Just win the second half!

Dont go down without a fight at least.

[Armchair expert]

I don’t think Elliott’s been particularly good.

li don’t care what anybody says he isn’t a midfielder …A number 10 for me

[the_red_pill]

Gutless stuff

Outclassed and outfought by a condom header managed banter team who got twatted by Brentford. And let’s pretend it’s just not signing a central midfielder that’s our problem when so many of them are playing like utter shit.

Carvalho, Fab and Tsimikas on at HT please

100%
Perhaps Keita... if he can play... but that would be flirting with re-injury.

[TALBERT]

Sky Sports is basically MUTV again

[Wabaloolah]

problem is no bench... sooo yeah this is it all the way! we looked to be coming into it and i think utd will be knackered by 70... hopefully we are still in it

Carvallho for Bobby on 60, I think Fab should come on almost immediately too. Kostas for Robbo. Other than that it's our u21 squad pretty much

[OOS]

Totally agree. My mental health ain't the best ATM and this really isn't helping.

Its just a game of football, good and bad. Take it easy. 

[jillcwhomever]

Sky Sports is basically MUTV again

It's always been that.

[west_london_red]

Can someone with better tactical brains tell me what Elliott is doing? He doesnt cover trent, hardly gets past the front man and into the box?

I would expect Hendo and Milner to provide the cover for the full back more then Elliot

[bornandbRED]

Lackadaisical on the goal. Lots of men a second off. We’ve become poor off the ball - the last thing you’d associate with a Klopp team… 

[TepidT2O]

li don’t care what anybody says he isn’t a midfielder …A number 10 for me

isnt a number 10 a midfielder?

City are full of number 10s playing 8

[red1977]

I would love to see Elliot get the winner really late on, he will go fucking nuts which would wind them up no end.

[Cesar]

No changes. See you on the other side

[Flaccido Dongingo]

li don’t care what anybody says he isn’t a midfielder …A number 10 for me

No 10s usually play in midfield

[RedSamba]

We miss Maguire

[Guz-kop]

We look undercooked every game. Enough time to win it but need to be better

[naYoRHa2b]

It's negligence to rely on so many injury prone midfielders.

You can get away with Thiago, injury prone but when fit a class act. You cannot say the same about Ox or Naby. So then you've got a 36 year old who is a fantastic player to have around and call on when needed but not week in week out. Plus Hendo who is limited and even then you wouldn't want to see him play every week. So then you've got a 19 year old in Elliot, what a huge fucking ask that is too.

[CS111]

Even a draw would be a shit result

[TALBERT]

We miss Maguire

Done nothing to target Martinez

[oldfordie]

Looked like Milner was tearing the back out of VVD for not closing down Sancho. typical of the way we are playing right now, just get back to basics.
These will collapse if we equalize. we are making them feel like playing.

[Oldmanmick]

Surely we can't play as badly in the 2nd half. Hope Klopp has tore into them at Half time.

[Knight]

When you’ve got Milner and Henderson in midfield… yes Firmino very much needs to drop deep so that we can progress the ball.

[the_red_pill]

what's happened to us, exactly? was Sadio really the glue that made everything work?

Hangover from last season, I think.
Seems we're prone to that.
