A cheesy smash and grab would honestly do nothing for me. I need performance. Give me LVG era Anfield.
It was only less than a year ago when we were in the title race. Then we conceded a last min goal away to Palace and Casemerio was booked and missed the Arsenal game. That seems a lifetime ago.Care to tell me what's wrong about that? We've come 2nd, but miles behind top in terms of points. We've never been close.
Playing against a team where we have scored 1 goal at anfield in 7 and a half years that came in a 3-1 loss in Jose last game in Dec 2018Hope I'm wrong but I think we're incapable of scoring a goal on Sunday.
id like to see this, it gives us numbers in midfield. but its clear ETH seems too stubborn to change the formation, and instead were more likely to have a 4141 with the two wingers staying back a bit, so contributing nothing in attack or defence. much like versus newcastle recently.For me 4-4-2 (diamond)
Onana
Wan Bissaka
Varane
Lindelof/Evans
Shaw
Amrabat
Hannibal
Mainoo
McTominay
Rashford
Hojland

Our wingers can't cross or create so let's pack the midfield, and rely on full backs to create from wide.
We’ve seen Juanfield…get ready for Antfield.A cheesy smash and grab would honestly do nothing for me. I need performance. Give me LVG era Anfield.
Good for you.I think this is the first Liverpool v United match I'll purposely miss in my adult life. I've got a long journey up north and normally I would've arranged it around the game but feck if I'm gonna do it this time. I've never been more disillusioned with this club.
It's the comparison of what they're saying was never close with us, yet what supposedly was close for Liverpool. Like being 4th one year, or a distant 7 points another.Care to tell me what's wrong about that? We've come 2nd, but miles behind top in terms of points. We've never been close.
If I recall, the EtH of last year or some previous managers may have had the sense to do this. Packing the midfield and actually using our strength or dna in transition is our only chanceFor me 4-4-2 (diamond)

Great, now they'll win 8-0.I'm going to put a tenner on 7-0 6-0 and 5-0 to the scouse and it will never come in because I never win a bet. Taking one for the team.
Fine I'll put 8-0 on as wellGreat, now they'll win 8-0.
Have you seen our injury list? Rangnick, ffs, get a grip.The fact that we have been allowed to fall to this stage is simply scandalous.
How the hierarchy and players can even try to put a positive spin on this facade is embarrassing. Bring back Ralf Rangnick to oversee a proper rebuild.
I like this, ensures our midfield will have some bite and the ability to break up play. We’ll have to put in a dogged and fiesty effort to get anything from this game so Hannibal and Mainoo are must starts.For me 4-4-2 (diamond)

try 9-0 too just in caseFine I'll put 8-0 on as well
I prefer it when they finish 8 points behind us.At least this expected trimming will be against a Liverpool team that will go on to win the league title compared to last season hammered by team that would finish 5th and 8 points behind United in 3rd..
Is there a less than 5 goals option? Like an over under? That should dotry 9-0 too just in case
Mazel tov!Is it too early to start drinking for this?
If that was considered being involved in title race, Ole in 20-21 did participate in title race. We was top for 3 rounds out of 6 rounds played in January 2021 while City played one game less. We never went any worse than 2nd for the rest of the season.It was only less than a year ago when we were in the title race. Then we conceded a last min goal away to Palace and Casemerio was booked and missed the Arsenal game. That seems a lifetime ago.
