The team looks so much more solid and together. We actually have a decent defense now.
Yes the defence looks a bit more solid lately. However I'm not counting my chickens just yet.
That performance would have got us well beaten by any of the top sides last night. The curse of inconsistency still haunts this side. We need at least 4 and preferably 5 top class signings this summer. Am very interested to see what level of quality Klopp brings in, always assuming the committee and FSG stay out of his way.
while I partly agree we didn't play our best despite creating 5 real good chances, because of the space man utd sacrificed trying to take the game to liverpool, I think man utd did the best they could to get a result - I think that deserves some credit
Yes it was the space they gave us while trying to take the game to us that allowed us while playing poorly to create those chances. Had Van Gall done what he needed to do and keep things tight at the back to prevent the killer away goal, we would have struggled to prevent a second when they scored from the dearly penalty. Van Gall threw it away by not prioritising defence first and foremost, and especially after getting the penalty. Poor management by a struggling manager.
But didn't they try to prioritize defence at anfield and it didn't work, and they won the ball back high up the field leading to the penalty?
I personally think they should have made more of their set piece opportunities, but all credit to liverpool for not letting them do that.
I still think they could have got that 2 goal cushion playing the way they did, even if another top de gea performance would have to be on the cards, they just didn't create enough or were clinical enough with their half chances, 3 shots on target, I mean that sums up man utd at home this season not cutting edge no penetration.
