Manchester United vs Liverpool (Tue 12th July, 14:00 UK time) | BANGKOK CENTURY CUP CHAMPIONS
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
I think in 2 years you would be hard pushed to see 2 players left from the starters today.
Meanwhile, their first string did feck-all against our second (I mean, really, we had Telles playing CB), who had already been on the field for 15 minutes previous.
And the Scousers pretty much had three full squads to play 30 minutes each, whilst we only had two to play 45 per.
It means more. La.
Consider that a 1-0 win over a damn strong scouse team albeit not fit yet of course. Genuinely think even fully fit they will miss Mane, he always seemed to give us trouble.

Klopp the clown...
“Obviously the game came a little bit too early for us, for some of our boys,” manager Jürgen Klopp noted after Tuesday's 4-0 pre-season loss to Manchester United. “We saw a lot of good things, but in the decisive moments we were not. “That's it pretty much."

To get match fit you fecking idiots!
Was last years team plus Martial, encouraging result, but utterly meaningless. We have seen yougnsters have good preseasons before and fade away.
What I watched, was good energy, but we still looked over ran a lot....it is last years side.
I like what Ten Hag is saying and appearing to do.
Personally, I am still of the opinion a good 15-18players should have been shown the door. We have got rid of the contracts, loaned Henderson and a couple look like going. Hopefully Ten Hag can get the best out of some, would be pleasing and save a fortune.....I still at the moment with the vast majority of them, think they have had enough chances and dont have the intelligence as footballers or ability to actually improve enough.
I am not naming names, are a couple that have been hit and miss I still rate, some I think are dreadful....I have the feeling Ten Hag wont suffer repetition of mistakes, attitude and lack of development, so they will get found out in the end and moved on......still think he is in for a rude awakening though with many in his first season and not enough incomings to seriously change where we are currently

The article makes up so many excuses for Liverpool yet there’s no mention of our 10 changes in the second half and the team of kids we put out?
Fully expecting the narrative in the media particularly from the ABU ones to be different if the result was reversed
Klopp confirmed after the game his major summer signing was suffering from blisters on his feet, which handicapped his movement.
The Liverpool boss also added "after his third sprint his lungs were ready to explode".
Klopp already bringing out the need for asthma medicines.
I haven’t seen the game, just the goals.
For those who did see the game, ignoring the 4-0 result, was there early signs of a proper system and of the Utd players, particularly in the first half, being willing to implement it?

The defensive line was high and there was a good shape of intensive pressing.
That's about it.
It's only the start. But it's a promising start.
I don't care what anyone says. If United had lost this game, all the ABUs would have been all over it. I can see the media narratives now about ten Hag. The relentless banter from Dippers and Gooners in particular but oppo fans in general....even though as everyone is reminding us "it's just a pre-season friendly".
Yeah it is just a friendly but I'm shamelessly milking it for what it's worth because I know that if the tables were turned they would be also.

Blisters? Liverpool water is different.
Yeah completely agree.He’s literally smashed it in the championship on loan to Birmingham last season. He’ll do fine.
Then why did Klopp play him? This match and result means absolutely nothing in the context of the coming season, but we came away with the bragging rights and Klopp didnt like it.
The amount of disrespect.. his assistant shook Goofy's hand while he was posing like a supermodel.Life under Erik eh?
Liked the fitness, work rate. Impressive that Uniteds B team beat a first choice Liverpool 1-0 in the final 30 minutes. Bailly especially in beast mode..
Roll on game two of the pre season..
He hates it when we park the bus and still complains when we play more expensive haha
Its always good to beat them, and we did it with some style. Liverpool of course will be 100% better by August, lets hope we are too!
It's because they are still the best team in the century cup. The one everyone wants to beat.
Also still the best team in England, Europe and the world.
Even better again, they are quite possibly the best team ever, to win fcuk all.
They've invented debuts.
Never a bad thing to smash Liverpool in your first game.
No point ever getting carried away with anything that happens in pre season but the pressing in the first half was great to see and a Sancho/Martial/Rashford has potential in that sort of system if the latter two can find some form.

I guess they couldn’t put the word performance in considering they lost 4-0 and he missed an open goal. Reception it is
Probably to make it sound like the whole stadium was Liverpool fans.
I hope that half isn't the only half when these lads press this season.
I agree. EtH is a top top manager and we are very lucky to have him. Let's hope our dumbass owners won't waste this huge opportunitySorry in advance if too positive, but i really think we got one of the best managers around in ETH.
Now we the supporters and players need to back him all the fecking way.
GLORY GLORY MAN UTD!
Beating Liverpoo
The Bluewings crushed us, didn't they?
Improvement.
This..
Why are they so sour?
Sorry lads, my bad, I was off by one goal.
Ten Hag wouldn't have known what Klopp was going to do, would he? They don't go telling each other their lineups before the match
I remember Yokohama Marinos beating in David Moyes' only preseason with us. It was also the last tme we played in Japan. Otherwise, I have no recollection about being beaten hard by anybody in that region. Regardless, J-League teams give us quite a run for our money even during our dominant years under SAF.
Another Russian sports club behaving like ****tards. As far as I know, they are NOT in the Champions League nor the Europa League this year nor anytime soon.
