Good for 25 mins, absolutely awful for the rest of the game.

Mctominay and Fred should be nowhere near a team that wants to challenge. Ole wasting another 45m of football by playing rashford on the right and mason on the bench.

Whats annoying is that two of their goals weren't even good strikes, they looked like routine saves that Henderson spilled

Dominated, outclassed. We couldn't string two passes together for the majority of the game. That's more worrying than any defensive frailty.

We're a million years away from challenging for major trophies.
Progress though

Henderson was not good and his errors are the difference in the scoreline. Not excusing other poor performances, though. De Gea can have his spot back for the rest of the season as far as I'm concerned.

Why bother resting the players against Leicester if they're not even going to show up for the match?

Garbage game all around from everyone.

Losing against Liverpool after losing against Leicester to retain the integrity of the premier league... :lol: poor performances up and down the pitch today, I know we don’t need to win any league matches now for top four, but they need to sort it out before the final.

Disgraceful performance, not helped by poor starting line-up. Rashford on the right, Pogba on the left unbalances the team, why was Lindelof moved to the left? Bailly being on the pitch didn't help either, unsettles everyone around him.

Those protests look superb now don't they. Cost us 2 home defeats, and let Liverpool into the top 4.

Brilliant effort lads.

That was just embarrassing, we deserved nothing, most out on that pitch tonight for United, looked to be not arsed, shocking that a Man United game v Liverpool and we could not be bothered to get out of second gear, FFS at times looked like first gear, thats more shocking than the result.

In all the football matches I've watched. I do not think I've ever seen a GK make it so easy for a player to score ? I mean Henderson stood there like a deer in headlights.

Every one of their goals was a gift, so so sloppy!

We definitely missed Maguire tonight, all at sea at the back!

Decent performance but lapses and silly decision making cost us. In terms of the season though, pretty much a pointless match. Valencia is all that matters now.

Too many mistakes. Maguire is vital for us.

Players did try though, so i won't be too harsh. Ultimately pool had more to play for, Even if thats a bad excuse.

We looked like a team that couldn't be arsed. They looked like a team fighting for something.

Mentality was shit.
This.

Only got going in the last twenty minutes.

Need to shake that out of them by the final.

Absolutely ridiculous. We just gave some life to these dying, miserable cnuts and a chance to play in Europe next season.

2-4 at OT : Liverpool's "title" for the 20-21 season.

Pogba should feck off to Madrid already.

Look it ultimate doesn't matter to our season but that was a frustrating one. Awful performance, especially at the back. I feared before the game they'd want it a lot more than us and that we'd struggle without Maguire and I think both of those fears were justified in the end. I'm sickened to let them get back in with a chance of top 4 to be honest.

All four goals were gifts. Throughout the game, it felt like every player was taking several seconds to make every simple decision, even things like which way to turn, resulting in them ending up flat on their arses. They just looked mentally knackered.

I think that's more than likely the result of the recent schedule and the matchday routine being thrown off by the measures to get around the protests.

Gutted. Just gave away the win. The squad's weaknesses are clear. We need to address them in the window.

But for this season, Ole needs to light a fire under the players' asses for Fulham and the final. No excuses.

A lot of overreactions are going to happen. Naturally it sucks to lose against liverpool.

But they came with everything to play, theywere fighting for their lives. We have finished our job in PL for this season. Most important game for us is EL final.

Pogba seems to be in awful form and this is worrying.
Rashford scored which is a good sign, hope he can pick it up for the final. He had a horrible game otherwise.

Good sub by Ole to bring Greenwood in instead of Fred, gave us momentum and we turned the game around. Stupid mistake gave them their 4-th goal and it was over. I felt equalizer was on the way..

Move on, nothing to see here. It's not new information that we need good CB/DM and a new attacker BADLY.

Think our CM vulnerabilities got completely found out again. CDM is priority, even more so when we are without our best CB.

Not a good showing from Henderson either, slightly concerning.

This could be a very ugly end to the season if we don't get the result in the final.

Ole needs to learn, Rashford on the right is like playing with 10 men.. how many times do we need to see it.

frantic performance, rushing and flapping, misplacing passes, leaving glaring gaps. Fred made his usual fatal mistakes.

Before the 4th goal we were in the game and looking dangerous but suckered on the counter attack.

Certain players think they're already in the starting line-up for the final.

They need a reality check. I'd give the second string some opportunities to prove their hunger to start against Villareal. Some players are in the team simply because we haven't invested wisely.

I hope Ole is kicking piles of laundry and throwing pizza right now
