Liverpool vs Manchester United - 05/03/2023 - Official Match Thread

Understand the drop off on performance and result. Expected to get beat this couldn't go on forever.

That 2nd 45 stunk of absolute arrogance from that 11. Then at 3 -0 losing all form of professionalism or effort.

There's a lot of good credit the players have built up in the last 6 months gone in one half of football. Ffs

£#%&!ing hate these scouse @#%&!s

Utterly ridiculous, hopefully their luck evens out in the next few games at least.

I don’t think that’s the case. It’s a poor excuse. Big mistakes were made. Antony Casemiro dalot haven’t been playing much recently . Varane shaw Martínez Fred have had a weeks “rest”


It was a pathetic performance in the second half. As weird as it is to say, it’s not like the scousers were all over us . They played well. But hardly a game where there was nothing we could do.

Poor in game management from the players after the second. You have to shut up shop for 5-10 mins the moment the second goal goes in

Thinking of swerving motd

perhaps that was down to complacency. we already have a trophy, and we're comfortably in the top four spots, so maybe our players think the pressure is off and put their feet up. out of the three competitions we're in, the league is the most "dead rubber" of the three.

but that is simply no excuse for conceding £#%&!ing 7 to those @#%&!s. it wouldn't be an excuse if it was prime klopp vs moyes or lvg or ole or jose at his worst. they are the most average they've been in years, and we're the best we've been in years.

the result away at city was a sickener too but at least we still pulled a few back and did all we could to stop it being total and utter humiliation, even if it was too late. that today was simply disgusting. inexcusably poor, and yet another history making result which we are on the wrong end of.

The end of some players today. You can’t come back from that

It just seemed like everything they hit went in. Genuinely odd last 30 mins.

Shots from angles that should not be going in - somehow managed to squirm in. The ball is ricocheting around the box and continually finds its way to Liverpool players, I’ve never seen anything like it.

We hadn't played a proper game for nearly a month before, there were big mitigating circumstances that just aren't there today.

It’s why it’s all the more surprising . Prime klopp , that ole game, I expected to get beat badly because of how bad we were.

This is the worst Liverpool team in the last 6-7 years and the best team we have had since fergie

Would have honestly done us the world of good to lose against West Ham or Leicester.

Atleast the glazers might think twice about staying

Because he’s happy, mate. He’d rather be ‘right’ on the internet.

I’m starting to think Utd as a club died once Fergie retired
We’ve taken so hidings from our biggest rivals in the last 10 years but that today was the final nail in the coffin

We will never (not in a 100 years) do what Liverpool have done to us over the last 2 years
5 nil at OT and 7 nil at Anfield, there’s just no response to that

I didn’t watch the 2nd half as I feared the worst (although that final score is beyond my worst imaginings) so I don’t know how we conceded the goals but I can’t understand how any Utd team in history can concede 6 goals in a half to Liverpool
Even the worst Everton team in decades have put up far more of a fight against Liverpool

I’ve had it with the majority of players who’ve played in these hammerings
Get rid of Dave, Shaw, Dalot, Fred and anyone else who doesn’t have the stomach for the fight
Even Bruno for me is on thin ice, plays like a @#%&! in too many big matches
Clearly they are mostly talented footballers but there’s clearly something there that allows them to capitulate like that

ETH has his work cut out to keep this season from going off the rails after that

This six times over, with our defence wearing clowns shoes

DDG made no howlers but he is a mouse when it comes to knocking sense into those in front of him. Smikes would have punched 3 of our back four today when it got to 3

Who wouldn’t want to know what Richard Keys has to say about football? Successfully Played, managed, coached at the very top level for years. Oh, that’s right, he didn’t. He’s a strategically shaded chimp, with none of the manners or morals.

Bruno was a disgrace as captain. The whole team need to be dropped for the next game.

My Son’s first birthday today.

Got to have that date associated that result now too.
