Tha what? It's our first season in the PL for years and Liverpool haven't lost in about 30 league matches. Deluded if anyone doesn't think it was a free hit game.Not the biggest fan of this statement.

We're in the same league as them and deserve to be we have got results against other top sides other people gave us no chance against. It is not deluded, it is a good mindset of going in to every game to compete. If they are so mighty that we cannot even think of beating them or getting a result why not field second string and 'give em a run' until we have apparently a more feasible game... Or am I just being deludedTha what? It's our first season in the PL for years and Liverpool haven't lost in about 30 league matches. Deluded if anyone doesn't think it was a free hit game.
We might aswell all pack up now then. In fact don’t even sell us any tickets in the away end if that’s the case.Tha what? It's our first season in the PL for years and Liverpool haven't lost in about 30 league matches. Deluded if anyone doesn't think it was a free hit game.
We should have had a bet before the game and i dont bet on united. We wasn't ever going to pick any points up tonight, glad it's over with move on.We might aswell all pack up now then. In fact don’t even sell us any tickets in the away end if that’s the case.
We’ll give them plenty of slack even if they can’t pass a ball to each other. It’s one thing supporting the lads and another thing calling out their downfalls on a forum for a certain game.Well one thing is for sure, if some fans don’t cut the lads any slack when they’re playing the best team in the world god help us when we’re playing dross like Arsenal and ManU.
I do wonder sometimes but then again, when you’ve got a fan base who are all top of their trade and captains of industry it’s to be expected.![]()

I’ll move on alright, and trust me, this Blades team, if they turn up and do the basics right can beat or at least give a game to any fucker.We should have had a bet before the game and i dont bet on united. We wasn't ever going to pick any points up tonight, glad it's over with move on.

Listen to Wilders interview, he’s basically saying they pressed us and ran after the ball, when they didn’t have the ball after being forward they all ran back or something very similar, it was another way of him saying they did the basics or is what’s expected whereas we didn’t.Here’s a challenge for all those who choose to believe our failings in this game were a bigger take-away than Liverpool’s quality:
Next time @Roygbiv’s View From includes the phrase “off day” from an opposition fan, show some empathy...
If “just doing the basics” is something that’s always equally attainable, regardless of opposition, then you’re probably mistaking football for snooker.

Excellent summary that mate.Gray, I think you and I are normally on the same page, when it comes to this team mate, but tonight I am allowing myself to be very critical of the performance.
I also think that the boys themselves will be, and we already know that Wilder wasn't at all happy with it.
Maybe I/we have all been spoilt in recent years, but when I see Wilder's United look flacid and disjointed like they did tonight, I feel deflated, because I know how good they are. Regardless of who we ever play, we normally get the basics right and scrap to get possession of the ball. Then once we have it, we back ourselves to keep hold of it and ask the opposition a few questons.
I didn't see nearly enough of any of that tonight, sorry but I just didn't. And as good as Liverpool are, that wasn't all down to them.
Still, onto Wet Sham..for what it's worth I think we will tonk them. UTB
This^We just played the champions of the world on their own patch.
We were clearly and comprehensively outplayed but so have many other top quality teams.
This was never going to be a game we would get anything from but we left without head held high and every United player will be a better player for what they just experienced.
At the beginning of August, we would all have taken 8th place on Jan 2 and having played English champions and world champions in 4 days and only let in 4 goals against the top strikers in the world.
We have come along way from the Port Vale’s and Scunthorpe’s of this world.
We now move on and solidify our position for next year.

My view Stretch (and bromtom and wizadry ) is that it was simply one big game too much for us mentally as well as physically. Liverpool away on the back of Man City away in such a short timescale was too much to ask in the end and the early goal scuppered any sort af a game plan. The centre backs and keeper were the only players who were on their game because they didn't have to think too hard, they were too hard pressed, the rest mentally froze, we’ve seen it happen to teams at all levels. It’s hard to explain why happens collectively as opposed to just individuals but it does to better players and teams than we’ve got. In my case it was just a matter of chalking it off as a bad day at the office like so many teams that play us have had.Gray, I think you and I are normally on the same page, when it comes to this team mate, but tonight I am allowing myself to be very critical of the performance.
