    If only Woodward had signed Maguire and Perisic.

    On a more positive note, Lingard released his clothing line this week so maybe the club can milk some of that cow too. Keep the quarterly figures nice and promising.

    Liverpool fan here. Worst Utd team Ive ever seen at Anfield. And I'm 46.

    Jose won't survive that.

    Ah the Pogba blame and deflection after another shocking tactical display from UTD and he wasn't even playing.

    Your consistant with this stuff I'll give you that.

    What’s happening with Pogba these days? I don’t watch his Instagram so don’t know what he’s working hard on these days....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,131 ✭✭✭malinheader


    Biggest mystery to me is why there is not a rebellion from the fans at OT.

    If only Maguire and Perisic had wanted to play for Mourhino

    If you took 11 strangers and threw them on a pitch without any training, they would be better organised than that shambles of a team. No link up play and defensively a mess. There isn't 1 player at the club atm playing to their maximum ability. The longer the season goes on the worse it is getting

    Thank god for Woodward. Saving us from Mourinho's signings.......can you explain why he didn't sack the manager he no longer trusted?

    Don't know. Don't follow him.

    What did you think of how Jose set us up today and his subs and general tactics etc?

    The funny thing is - it is not even the best Liverpool team in the last 10 years.

    Cylnne - Lovern on the pitch - lacking in midfield and an out of form front 3 (for them)

    I wouldn't bet on that. The board have a real problem when it comes to making obviously good decisions.

    Probably because not signing everyone Mourinho wants isn't exactly a sign of not trusting him as a manager. Although Mourinho is doing his best every week to erode whatever trust remains of him from Woodward and the fans.

    i would have liked a few rough tackles or cards just for the players to show theyre annoyed or angry at losing like this!
    De Gea on Salah.



    Fúck it, De Gea on Lukaku would've pleased me more.

    Drumpot we got hammered by liverpool and all you are talking about is pogba and he wasnt even playing

    No but what's worse is I can't explain why he hired him in the first place. Joses 3rd season meltdown, in fighting and hissy fits was all too predictable

    How is this still the angle people are taking?

    The players are ****e. The manager is ****e. And the board are ****e.

    It’s ****ing blatantly obvious it’s a collection of all three.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,485 ✭✭✭✭Father Hernandez


    Funny that 3-1 probably flattered us too

    Jammy goal, could have conceded 4/5 had they have been more clinical and De Gea wasn’t the best in the world

    It still boogles my mind that he is A: still at the club and B: starting matches regularly.

    We wouldn't be good enough for most teams in the league, yet he starts for Man United. Guess running around a lot must be a plus.

    Nope. For some its only Mourinho holding back our "top class" players.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,643 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Never thought I'd see the day a United manager would say Liverpool are a better team and United can't compete with their intensity.

    It's all well and good getting rid of Mou, but massive changes need to happen at the club to claw us back to the top.

    All the talk before the game was pogba and he wasnt even starting

    I love the way Jose is getting away scot free of any blame on Sky Sports. The manager who bought the players.....

    Forgot he controls their legs when they consistently misplace 5/10 yard passes.

    It's a shame Jose's top class signings haven't worked out either right? Now he's benching some, playing others constantly despite how bad they are.

    Poor guy wasn't backed. Give him another 400m and 3 seasons and we can start over and maybe just maybe he can produce a team that can pass a ball and not need to park the bus all day long.

    Oh thats just tactics. Not the players fault at all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,640 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    The board have to take on blame here yes those clubs mentioned above would have sacked him by now as they are Football Clubs we unfortunately are a football business.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,227 ✭✭✭20 Times 20 Times


    Never thought I'd see the day a United manager would say Liverpool are a better team and United can't compete with their intensity.

    But it’s true ! We are not good enough ! Everyone takes responsibility for this from top down .

    Does sacking manager fix it ? For me I would of said no right up until this game.

    Now - he has to go .

    How often do you need to change the skin on that drum of yours?
