Failing to beat these was a real slip up in the grand scheme of things.

[Daffydd]

In recent years even a shite Man Utd would somehow claw something back and salvage a point with a spawny own goal and a penalty but it seems they don't even have that in their locker anymore.

Someone please explain to me how we couldn't beat these shits at Anfield over a week ago.

They parked Concorde against us (which they don't do against all the other sides) and we were wasteful, lacking in creativity and inefficient.

Annoying, but it can happen. Key thing is to make up for it somewhere else - may have to beat one of Arsenal or Man City to make up for one too many draws.

Criminal we didn’t beat Utd.

25 min in and a free header in the six yard box followed by an unmarked Dendonker flick puts Villa 2-0 up.

The boos ringing round Old Trafford after only 25 minutes 😂😂

Overplaying, what really needs to happen is we arrange these players into the world’s best direct, lethal on the counter, pressing and counter pressing, squeeze teams until the pips one out outfit like their predecessors, THEN develop the passing game further from there

We already have the midfielders with the ability to play the kind of balls our forwards thrived off and switches to open the play up in the system that only Hendo, Trent & Virgil could play, now they can all play them and they have more of the cute stuff in their lockers too for when it’s needed

I think our up and down form is because we’ve not done the above more sensible and pragmatic and necessary organisation aspects building the team up we should have, Mo, Diaz and Nunez were all better making the runs in behind from LFWD or RFWD and Gakpo much better from the space those runs opened up

I just don’t see what’s wrong with steamrollering teams while conserving a lot of e edgy like we used to and having far more ability to do that with 4 or 5 more players who can play the top quality medium to longer passes and switches, top quality switches from all 3 mids plus Trent, we should be running riot based on how Jurgen is capable of arranging his teams

Like the runs in behind opening the space up for Szlobo Gravenberch Jones Mac Allister to use or bust into and through, look at Jones’ best performance in a Liverpool shirt the other day, because Nunez was LFWD making the runs in behind opening up the space for him and Gakpo was intelligently running a CB left or right to make avenues for Jones to work with

Diaz looks a very pale shadow of the player he was when we played the other way, gets bullied by the full back instead of giving him nightmares with runs in behind, drops of and completes loads of nothing passes not threatening the opposition goal

Looks offside to me but it’s Old Trafford

[Steveo]

Offside, and looked it

[Crimson Dynasty]

I'm genuinely stunned that VAR and these crooked officials didn't find a way to let that goal stand.

[Insidious]

It's a pity it was offside - a 2-2 draw here wouldn't be the worst result for us.

Rashford the fucking pussy he was favorite for that ball if he comitted to it hes there and martinez gets red. Hes a fucking fraud it must be hard for english fans to see such a pathetic individual play for theor nation without question.
