Klopp is angry, you can just feel the rage bubbling underneath, have not seen him this pissed in ages

I think he is feeling the pressure (and his fail after fail v Manure)

lololol

[Laylabelle 9,351]

Never realised how white Klopps teeth were! 

Happy with that. Long as this doesn't spur man u on its all good

Arguing in the studio....

Souness "They lack a recognised striker"

Neville "We sold Lukaku"

Souness "There's the problem"

Keane "Go buy Kane problem solved"

*silence in the studio*

Keane "What you all looking at, go do it"

Chelsea remain the only team to start a Premier League season (2005/06) with 9 consecutive wins.

It was very rich of Klopp to complain the decisions that went against Liverpool yesterday. They have been so lucky with them for the past 18 months!

Also, Mourinho came up with zinger of a quote on Klopp's complaint about United being defensive - "He didn't like the menu. He likes meat and he got fish".

"He didn't like the menu," Mourinho told Sky Sports. "He likes meat and he got fish. United, with the limitations they have at the moment, they played with five at the back, were solid and didn't give the chance of transition. Jurgen Klopp didn't like the menu.

Yes, lolol

Wtf why is everyone in the media praising United's performance v Liverpool? Did they watch the game? United basically just played long balls into the channel and ran around. Liverpool were pretty piss poor by all accounts too but I suppose trying to have Fabinho, Henderson and Wjinaldum pick passes through 10 players sitting deep and compact is about as useful as a chocolate ashtray. All this United can build on this performance pish is ridiculous although if they want to play like a team of hammerthrowers tbf yeah let them crack at it.

Also as a Scot, seeing how Scott McTominay played yesterday makes me worry, if he is going to be a key player in our NT we are fucked. Seen the game on the train, whole of the second half he just booted the ball aimlessly everytime.

Keanes comment regarding Harry Kane was hilarious though but no surprise Neville, Keane even Souness.... no real criticism of Uniteds performance. Odd because I remember when City beat us 1-0 under Conte, we got absolutely hammered by most pundits until we lost 6-0 with Sarri in same fixture.

Indeed. Hilarious to see some pundits/journalists hailed Solskjaer as some sort of tactical genius for getting a draw against Liverpool. Effectively set United up like a plucky smaller team playing against a big side and hoped luck go their way. They might have stopped Liverpool from doing anything going forward but there was no quality whatsoever in the performance. Even their goal, as has been the case of late, came from a turnover/debatable refereeing decision situation.

Was actually having a similar debate with a United fan who was going on at me for losing this fixture, i said i wouldn't take that performance for an extra point, why? Because in the grand scheme of things it does nothing for United, a point higher in the table but in terms of competing with Liverpool properly it's actually a step back.  Whereas us by comparison went toe to toe with them and despite losing didn't look out of place atall, 0 points but a big step forward in terms of properly competing with Liverpool in the long run.

I rate McTominay

Ironically enough at United he does more than for Scotland but he is still one hell of an average player.

He runs about, tries to get stuck in, has a big physical frame but in a team thats on the front foot, who will be playing against low blocks most weeks, his passing and overall lack of top quality lets him down. 

For Scotland, he is a passenger every game. He sits in a more disciplined role infront of the defence but again, struggles to really impose himself or break the lines with his passing. Doesnt do nearly enough for Scotland to the point where I would rather see Steve Clarke pick Ryan Jack from Rangers in that role.

Victimpool would have run them out of the park if they had played them straight up

3, 4 goals at a minimum, even with the truly dreadful Hendo and the even worse Origi

Klopp was a fool for not going with Keita over Henderson from the start

and he needs to give it up with Origi at winger

a complete joke

[Vesper 28,767]

come on you Blades!!!

smash those north London twats

 

overlapping centre backs FTW!

lolololo

[Vesper 28,767]

woooot

1 nil

Arsenal have done nothing so far. And hopefully they will return home with nothing. Even a draw would be a great result.
