We did. We were great first half, the attitude was phenomenal all game and Mourinho got it spot on.
But I'm not going to pretend as if playing in that manner is going to win all of the time.
If there are games in which we sit back, cede possession (especially at home), and lose then we are going to be criticised. That's just the way it is - and I agree with
@JamesO when he says our history, spend and depth of personnel will raise the question:
Why aren't United doing the dominating?
That's not my opinion of yesterday, before any resident super fan takes a paddy, but a realistic picture of the way other supporters, media and even some of our own supporters will begin to think. Believe me, had Liverpool equalised yesterday this place would be a shitshow. Half of Old Trafford booed the (correct) Rashford substitution for Fellaini. So let's not pretend as if our manner of play is one that won't attract criticism, because it will.
Again, I'll stress that we got it right yesterday and any criticism of yesterday's game is unfair.
