Claytons Left Boot Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 Wtf was Van Dyke doing there? Should have moved out to Sancho to attempt a block or get a tackle in. Instead he stood there bowing slightly with his hands behind his back. 3 Quote
chaddyrovers Posted August 22, 2022 Author Posted August 22, 2022 Great finish by Sancho. He looks miles better today. Utd look better playing like this. Ten Hag has sent them fire up and he is right to drop Ronaldo and Maguire. Utd would be better getting rid of both. Liverpool defensive are wide open and easy to play against Quote
Displaced Rover Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 TAA is one of the worst full backs in the league defensively. He should be in midfield or on the bench for me. Quote
Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted August 22, 2022 Moderation Lead Posted August 22, 2022 VVD has looked poor so far this season for me. He’s obviously been a major reason for their success in the last few years in his defence. Every time I have seen Elanga play for United, he’s looked a real threat and he’s making TAA’s life hell tonight. Though he has been showing far too much of the ball to him in one on ones… Quote

speeeeeeedie Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 Liverpool came into it toward the end of the half. van Dijk has been bad, a sentence not uttered often. He was too slow to react to Rashford's initial run for the goal, then stood there whilst Sancho shot. TAA conforming to the criticisms he receives too. He fits into Liverpool's system but isn't a full back. Man U have played well. Can they keep it up? Quote
RoverDom Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 Thought that second looked offside all day long 1 Quote
chaddyrovers Posted August 22, 2022 Author Posted August 22, 2022 Liverpool looks very poor and Utd are playing very well. Quote
Backroom DE. Posted August 22, 2022 Backroom Posted August 22, 2022 The bubble well and truly seems to have burst for Liverpool. I know they have injuries but what an unbelievably poor start to the season for them. United aren't beating them through quality, but just through sheer effort and willingness to battle for everything. The total opposite to their first two games! Maguire and Shaw likely to be warming the bench for a while, one would think. Quote
arbitro Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 The Rags are eclipsing Liverpool on the number of team sprints. Hard work is still one of the greatest assets in sport. 1 Quote

I think I'm too conditioned to looking at the feet and the line across the pitch. But it's usually the shoulder lean forward that's the mark, and that can add half a metre or so. That's my theory anyway. Loads that are given look offside to me. Quote
RoverDom Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 I would wet myself laughing if united didn't take 3 points here. 1 Quote
arbitro Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 Liverpool were awful tonight and after the way their two centre backs played Van Den Berg could be in the first eleven. Alexander-Armstrong had absolute Joe Cocker. The Rags will be cock-a-hoop but the majority of Premier League teams will give them much harder games. Quote
AllRoverAsia Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 Fernandes is just perfect for ManUre. Mouthy poser They beat a totally out of sorts and injury ravaged Liverpool. Big fucking deal deluded pimps. 1 Quote

Tyrone Shoelaces Posted August 28, 2022 Posted August 28, 2022 There’s an article on Wolves in my paper today. It reveals the nationalities of the entire first team squad. Two English players, one Irish player - and ten Portuguese players. I’m not sure how I’d feel about that if it was the same at Rovers. 1 Quote

If they were of the calibre of Neves, 30 cap international wanted by huge teams, Guedes, 32 caps and a big money move after a few good seasons at Valencia, Moutinho, 146 caps and glittering CV, Nunes, big money talent wanted by big teams before signing, Nelson Semedo, big money signing from Barcelona, Pedro Neto, brilliant talent wanted by Arsenal and also Sa and Podence, as well as previously having the likes of Jota to help them to become a top half Premier League side, I reckon I could stomach it. 1 Quote

Yes probably, it’d just seem a bit odd. Modern football I suppose. When I first started watching 4 out of the 5 forwards were actually born in Blackburn ! 1 Quote

Gerrard and Lampard are proving a great player do not automatically make a great manager,they could be going into the Keane slot of World class player/Non league manager 3 Quote
