All the Football (Part 2)

United have the hex on Villa, we played well but as you point out, came away with zilch.

Casemiro?

I suspect Garnacho will play, hopefully Diallo but probably Rashford with Zirkzee at no9. No Ugarte yet but heā€™d probably have been sent off if heā€™d played!

Would anyone at Chelsea really notice if we sent Anthony over rather Sancho? Heā€™ll be loaned out to Belgium anyway.

Even the Chelsea players donā€™t know who their teammates are

Poxy international week already after todayā€™s games.
I hate these breaks.

Itā€™s a bold move, Cotton.

Gravenberch and De Ligt looking good today

Heā€™s on fire.

Unlike CasimoNo!

Liverpool looking much the sharper so far. Utd picking up too many cards aswell.

I would have thought Casemiro would have been an ideal candidate for Saudi League football. Heā€™s be alright at that.

Itā€™s ok
Because Ten Hag knows they are better than Liverpool.

Hmmm.

Theyā€™re nowhere close today. Awful. They shouldā€™ve binned Ten Hag off after the cup final

Someone posted this on the BBC stream:

Wrong manager. Wrong captain. Wrong players. Wrong sales.

Szoboszlai will be getting a rocket in the dressing room for trying to fancy dan that chance he had at 3-0

Gravenberch and Salah were immense. This midfield setup is very pleasing, so much control.

I also donā€™t understand VAR not giving the penalty for the foul on Gakpo.

A very strong & efficient showing from Liverpool. Utdā€™s players and management should study & learn. Could easily have been 5 or 6.

Hopefully Ugarte will strengthen things down the middle.

At least Anthony didnā€™t get brought on.

Bruce Willis doing all right as Klopps replacement.
Is he resting players 20 minutes from time or making a point.

Arne Shallot knows his onions, he researched United.

When Keane asked him about the high press, he just unloaded a 30 second masterclass on the differences between United last season and this, how they press in a different way, so how he beat those tactics.

*and told everybody else about it.

If Szoboszlai blams that one in, we go top of the league.

Prepping them for the League and European game mix

In three games under Slot we have not made a single midfield substitution other than Gravenberch subbed in the 91st minute against Brentford.

This points to a big difference in approach. I canā€™t remember many games under Klopp when at least one midfielder wasnā€™t subbed in a game.

Hereā€™s a mad statā€¦

Since 2021, Mo Salah is the 4th top goalscorer at Old Trafford. That is including United players as well.
