I wasn't expecting anything but a Liverpool win. I said to myself before the game as long we show some heart and desire then I'd take it on the chin and move on.
There are signs that Ole can get this team playing, albeit there are other times when we look clueless. Given that half of our first team were out and Liverpool were at full strength as usual, I say we did alright. Some will say alright isn't good enough for United, and they're not wrong but we have to be realistic. We are where we're at and it's going to take at least another year of good ins and outs as well as sticking to this system which we're currently playing. Set pieces at both ends need a lot of work though.
I think Williams and Shaw on the left worked well, Williams showed again that he's a comfortable ball player not just a defender and Fred arguably his best game in a United shirt. We created a handful of decent chances that may have gone in on another day and limited Liverpool. They had periods of sustained threat but so did we.
