Get a better stream bro.
 
^^^^ first time watching United against a top team

Weeks ago when I saw Liverpool’s attaching threat and I said Mou is already planning for a draw, I’m not wrong.
 
Salah's movement and touch has been great. Firminho and Cortinho positioning is letting the attack down and United look super comfortable. Darmian is a bit of a liability though, Liverpool need to expose him more.

presumably young is playing to exploit space behind moreno to put crosses on lukaku’s head

just a shame he has been wholly useless

Of course Mourinho will do this. Because it may well pay dividends. All season we've had tonnes of possession and loads of chances and still lost. He'll be confident that United can weather the storm and be clinical. Two things we aren't doing right now.

Maureen was always going to do this.

yep. play for draws away against the top 6, nab a few tight wins at home, then roll over the rubbish sides week after week.

city might be too good this year but as a blueprint it’ll always put you in serious contention for the title.
 
I could only watch the first 20 mins now I've got to go. Was a great start I thought. Shitting it now that I'm just waiting for numbers to come up on my phone

I understand parking the bus. But even when they have possession that try to get rid of the ball as far as possible. But trying not even one serious attack. Ridiculous.

He’ll be banking on those defensive errors to snatch a goal.

It’s annoying as hell to watch and ruins the game, but it’s effective.

That’s it if City have a wobble and you still have to play them you are in a fantastic position.

I haven’t really got an issue with parking the bus. It’s just hilarious that Mourinho is the first one to complain when a smaller side does it against him. It also deprives us of some amazing games.

Salah needs to leave that for Coutinho. Calm down Gary.

Damn. Had the right idea slowing things down and keeping possession for a spell. Need to go back to that.

Lucky to not be carded there
