Neither pogba or fellaini are in the team.

So McTominay is there with Matic. There's hay to be made in midfield, lads. Can and the Ox especially should be up for this, with Milner sitting in behind.

HandsomeBob

Disappointed Hendo is not there but relieved he isn't starting Wijnaldum.

Vicxas

That's a very strong team

Agent Coulson

Very happy Hendserson is on the bench I have to say.

He's done well rcently, but so have the others so I'm happy either way.

Delighted that Milner is playing anyway.

One_Of_Shanks

Happy enough overall but not sure if I'd have gone with Can over henderson. Glad Wijnaldum isn't starting anyway.

How does that united team lineup 4-2-2-2? Its very attacking looking on paper

6-2-1-1 in practice.

murpho999

Happy with the line up.

Shows how strong we have become that Henderson can't get in the side.

Right lads, i’m off round the pub now for this match and the rugby. I’ll check in later to post drunken nonsense and get carded

Hopefully there isnt one

Oh, my nerves are ramping up. This is the only fixture that still gives me the old butterflies in the stomach.

what a strange thing. Surely its ok for each crowd to talk among themselves?

Sure forcing both into same thread is more asking for trouble, no?

Anyway, feck it, I'm away to watch it on a very legal river.

Good luck lads, hope we are happy gits come full time.

Agent Coulson

Waiting for Tyler to blow his load if utd score and a little whimper if Liverpool.

J Mysterio

Last post before match!

Agent Coulson

Again TAA caught.

beya2009

Good header from Lukaku but really poor defending.

beya2009

We really needed to score first as I can now see Man U sitting deep.

Fromvert

Trent sleeping but was a great finish.
Terrible position to be in now the way United can play.

Harry Palmr

That match up was the one to keep an eye on and Liverpool didn't. TAA needed to have someone to double up on Rashford.

All on lovren for me. Didn't even compete with lukaku from the kick out. Cut it out at source. Compete with the obvious target for the goal kick....centre half 101.

noodler

TAA is really worrying me.

Alonso77

Lovren was pathetic in lead up, guy will continue to cost us in big games

Harry Palmr

Game over. Rashforded.

Fromvert

Headless at the back and the rest of the lads havnt started

Gbear

Needs to bring Henderson on now.
It was a mistake not to start him.

We've no rhythm.

Incredible bottle job today so far.

messinkiapina

This could turn into a hammering, all over the place.

beya2009

ffs these defensive lapses...no wonder we never win anything.

j8wk2feszrnpao

Trent and Lovern getting bossed.

NukaCola

TAA is having a shocker.....two long balls, FFS.....basic stuff. 2 shots two goals.

noodler

Fairly pathetic.

murpho999

Very disappointing to be 2-0. Not really deserved on balance of play. But Utd/Rasshford have taken their chances.

We're still in this game, especially if we get 1 back before half time.

Lovern is a donkey...I don't rate him at all.

Harry Palmr

Lovren always has a mare when he shi'tchats to the press.

It’s not lapses, in this case it’s just getting plain beaten. Lovern is being dominated. Trent not coping with pace.

Could take almost anyone off though. Stick milner or ox at rb if gomez isn't fit. Trent isn't with it today and there's no room for passengers.

One_Of_Shanks

Trent poor but WTF is Lovren at? Hes getting bullied. Simple from Mourinho, long balls over that side targeting Lovren and Trent and yer sorted.

Very poor from us to get picked off so easily.

Mignolet was the exact same. He is the ultimate bull****ter. Billy Big Bollocks vs Newcastle and when really needed, he's embarrassing. Trent's been utterly exposed here again today.

NukaCola

Lovren will be fine half the time, against top sides he's an easy target. Matips no better.

Fromvert

United saying here's the ball do something and we've got nothing.

This.
Obviously targeting by Jose. Virgil should be picking lukaku for those kick outs, not lovren. Klavan should be on him if for some reason we don't want Virgil picking him up.

VVD should have made it 1:1.
Easiest chance of the game.

Blondie919

Mane is muck today

Riesen_Meal

TAA is going to cost us this, but Lovren isn't immune to criticism, he hasn't exactly covered himself in glory either...

Utopia Parkway

Once I saw that Lovren did his customary interview during the week I should have known.

razorblunt

Had to laugh at the radio silence for VVD’s chance versus the euphoria for rashfords two. May as well be watching on MUTV.

mada999

utd getting the break of the ball in midfield, and dominating the midfield.... winning the ball each time... Milner to slow to get around and release the ball..
