Liverpool 0:0 Manchester United

Post-match discussion


Sun, 17 January 2021

I don’t really know how to feel about that. In one way, I think we matched the league champions well. But; they were depleted. An on form Bruno and Rashford, and we would have won this.

feels like points dropped.
 
Disappointed with a point, which I’d usually take from Anfield.

They have more quality, and yet we were closer to the three points. I’ll take that.
 
Nine consecutive games against Big Six with no non-penalty goals...

It was there for the taking.
I'll take a draw.
Not it you have ambitions of winning the title. Only one team won today. Manchester City.

Wasted opportunity.

The game was there to win.

Rashford is awful, honestly he doesn't pass in big opportunities, he just goes full on head down and tries to score. He could have slipped in Cavani or given the ball to Pogba to work to Cavani.

Bruno lacks maturity in games too, can't retain the ball at all.

Luke Shaw and AWB did great.

United SHOULD have got 3 points in that game, it's a weakened Liverpool, utterly dreadful.
 
Needed one of Martial, Rashford or Bruno to be clinical today. None of them showed up. Good thing neither did Firmino and co.
 
Happy with that. I don't rate us as highly as our position so keeping the 3 points gap between us and Livepool is good. They don't look a great side this year to me. Our final third work was wank but thankfully so was theirs.
 
We had the chances, just a few of our most important players out of form.
 
We've come a long way!
Matched them run by run and even surpassed them the last 10 minutes! We deserved a win today! We were the better team.
 
I really dislike 88+ minute subs, it was one of the most boring games I've watched for a while, but a point at Anfield? Definitely a better result for us.
 
Pogba's and Bruno's finishing and Rashford's poor decision making cost us massive 3 points.
 
Better 2nd half, and all the best chances fell to us overall. I'd have taken a draw before the game, but we should have won. We defended well but I don't remember De Gea being troubled.
 
No two ways about it, a despicable performance. The passing was borderline criminal, the inability to make basic passes or show for the ball, I'd be docking wages of some players.

Really, the worst performance in attack for us in some time.
 
Great result, matched them and could have nicked it at the end. Gap is closing and they should be and will be concerned.

Only concern is Rashford and his decision making. Smarter passes and it’s a win.
 
Ill take it, but it felt like a game we might have won, and I spent the entire second half waiting for a winner.

Luke Shaw outstanding. Lindelof & Maguire very good. AWB strong.

In the context of a title chasing season, its a pretty good point
 
A draws a decent result but I can't stand our cowardly tactics in big games this season.
City 2 games in hand to go top. They'll walk the league if they can get Aguero fit.
 
Disappointed we did not win that but have to say Shaw was outstanding
 
Should have won, but will take the point. We were good defensively, poor going forward with Bruno having a bad game and Rashford with yet another bad one, which is fairly standard for him now.
 
A point is ok but I'm disappointed we didn't take advantage of their make shift defence.

We simply didn't do enough in attack, too often our players don't step in the big moments. Normally Fernandes is the one to do so but even he couldn't do it today.
 
Imagine someone had told you this morning that we'd have beaten Liverpool handily only Bruno and Rashford were shite. Anyway, solid point and we keep going.

City have a golden chance now to be the big winners of the weekend.
 
A draw is a a good result, but not after this type of the game I couldn't know when we will beat them away if we didn't manage tonight.
True winners of the week - City if they win later on
 
On some game whole tactics happens to be to release Rashford behind the defensive line to such extent its so frustrating that we can play better football than that and we have more player than just Rashford who can win the game.
 
Fine with that. We’re the ones ahead in the table and we’re the ones playing away. They needed the win more than us. Boring as hell game but in the circumstances a point is ok.
 
Big winners city & Leicester, but reasonably happy with a point, that said should we have taken more advantage of their lack of key players?
 
A point at Anfield is always welcome no matter what their form is like. Could have been more with a bit of luck.
 
Good result but a bit annoyed we didn’t take one of those chances near the end they were there for the taking. That said we’re still top of the league! :devil:
