Unfortunate - goalkeeping errors in my opinion. Have to write it off as a bad result. Really hope they don’t make top four.

Just incredibly disappointed with the entire team shitting the bed for the first 20 minutes of that second half. Absolute disarray for a good half hour that started just before half time.

We made Alexander-Arnold look World Class but really Liverpool should’ve had 6. Given them a CL place on a fecking plate.

The fact the whole defence has turned into a jibbering wreck with one player missing is very very worrying.

Pogba on that second goal from the free kick to his defending for the header was frankly a pisstake.

Concerned about the mentality of these guys going into a final.

Maguire is absolutely essential to our sticky tape defence, that much is clear.

Puts the effort and performance from the lads on Tuesday in perspective. I don't think they genuinely would have been worse then that sorry excuse.

Our midfield is so fecking bad. Henderson isn't good enough and De Gea needs to take back his no.1 spot ASAP.

Absolute shit from start to finish. Rashford on the right needs to end. We need a CM to end that McFred thing and please put a goalkeeper in our goal again

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

Mentality was shit.

3rd goal conceded was the worst by far.

This game perfectly highlights why we need to buy a centre mid and a centre back in the summer.

That was horrible. No Maguire defensively is a disaster. Fred was abysmal. Henderson equally terrible IMO, really don't think he'll be a long term goalkeeper for us but as a stop gap he's whatever.

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.

Liverpool showed why they were decent favourites tonight. They are still a quality side and had the genuine motivation.

Rest up, beat Fulham, secure second, and get ready for the final.

Maybe going for a goalless draw against big teams wasn't such a bad idea after all. Good game from Liverpool but our amazing number of individual mistakes made it too easy for them.

Good: Bruno, Wan Bissaka
Decent: Pogba
Shocking: Shaw, Fred
Poor: the rest

Defensively a shambles. Concerning how bad we are at defending set pieces. McFred are not good enough, especially if you press them. Very poor performance & it gives Liverpool a boost to finish top-4 which is even more annoying.

We also need more than just Sancho if we are going to seriously challenge City for the title.

Worryingly bad. If I am Villarreal I am seeing a lot to encourage me if I press hard and high.

These fixtures killed the momentum. I was worried of it.

Also, it didn't look like we rested these players. And, We need a CB and DM/CM.
