Post match: Liverpool v Man Utd (EPL 17/12/23 4.30pm)

And unfortunately Mo has lost a few steps, which is devastating to a speed player.

That was awful. Between the lineup and the incompetence of United, should have done so much better. Nunez braindead, Diaz not much better, and only Becker can really come out with his head held high.

I’m sure the point will come in handy at some point but right now can’t help but feel down.

Will keep to the positives, CB’s, Kostas and Endo were fantastic.

& we didn’t lose.

Take the point, beat Arsenal at home whenever it is and all is forgiven.

Gakpo was pish as well. At least Nunez tries to drag players out of position.

I doubt we would have done anytbing with the time but Dalot grtting sent off and then two United playaers went down “injured” in extra time and the referee added less than one minute.

How long does he get to be ‘raw’? He’s 25, well into his second season. He is an infuriating player.

He needs dropping. Not resting, not rotating, dropping. Hard. Absolutely shite today and has been for a while.

Not. Fucking. Good. Enough.

One of those games that we didn’t get going. Needed one of those headers to squeeze in for a 1-0 win. Darwin standing still and appealing for a non-existent pen with the ball just trickling away was the low point.

Endo – decent enough game, but I was surprised he lasted the full game. Needed more quality through the middle. We lost shape with the initial subs which left Endo and TAA in the middle. When Klopp rectified it, Diaz should’ve stayed on with both Curtis and Elliot in the middle.

The Anfield crowd score = C-

Strangely quiet. Only really perked up when twice TAA had to cajole them. Onana’s goal kick routine was 15 to 20 seconds right from the start. After the initial whistles they seemed to more or less accept it.

Next weekend’s match hosting Arsenal brings on even greater significance.

Nunez who on the 6 yard line just lets a ball run into touch that was amazing.

VVD, Konate played very well in a positive.

Our set pieces are so annoying. Trent over hits it so much. Kostas much better gives a ball for the lads to run on to.

Get VVD off the back post. Swear all his goals have come from front post runs too

no truer words @Mascot, no truer words

One point is all we deserved. Front three were all poor today.

Kind of knew it after all the talk.

That’s 2 points dropped because they are shit.

We are missing Jota turning up and finding the net as he does after doing nothing for 89 mins.

No goals in 10 now and some absolutely massive chances missed in that time.

Really fucking lost my shit at that. Think I scared the neighbours. What the hell was he thinking?

Fucking useless today, and Diaz not far behind him. I agree he needs dropping.

I don’t remember Nunez trying anything today to be honest, just on periphery and losing the ball easily whenever it came near him. United’s formation wasn’t going to let anyone get dragged out of position.

Gakpo I thought was OK, had a few moments of both good and bad but nothing special obviously.

They have been for a while. Sick of saying it.

yes, that was dumb.

I still think people are being far too overly reactive about him. We’ve looked better with him on the pitch most weeks.

I’m not sure why everyone’s surprised by that performance , that’s the way we’ve been playing for a while now , and fluking results along the way.

Dom was fucking awful again. As were Nunez , Diaz and Salah. We cant even pass the ball at times.

Just shite again.
