    Like everyone, he has good and bad games, but I always think he's a notch or two above what he is given by many on here.

    Yeah, everyone did their job ok. Our full back positions are arguably weak points but Gomez and Moreno (Yes Moreno <yikes> ) were fine.

    Frustrating in games like this not to come away with all three points but that performance will breed confidence <ok>

    Anyway, a clean sheet! Even we can keep one against a team that doesn't even try to score.

    Most of the footy outlets calling it as a masterstroke defensively by Maureen (ala last season) not surprisingly, but tbf it was deffo more a case of bad finishing by us, given up on hoping for an honest assessment of our matches v them over the years.
    The "defensive masterclass" by maureen only proves his weakness, when playing City, Chelsea, Spurs and even Arsenal(,with better finishers than us)they'll wilt and concede under pressure.:emoticon-0100-smile

    Mourinho was always going to be defensive but even I had no idea how defensive! If I were a Utd fine, I'd be livid.

    Regarding us. We badly need a proper #9. We need to have more of a threat from crosses or we'll forever have to break down deep, narrow defences who are happy for us to have the ball wide because we are awful from those positions.

    Burnley offered more than Utd going forward. They should be ashamed of themselves.

    It’s similar to all of the other games that we failed to win (except City). Decent performance and missed chances.

    We’re not playing vintage football but it is good and attacking. Just lacking that final bit.

    But it’s clear Coutinho is the creator from deep and it kills our team when he’s not on the pitch. We lost that momentum when he was taken off.

    Exactly. It's not enough for a side with genuine title ambitions to be happy to grind out a draw against any team they consider a genuine threat. It was that attitude that denied them a top 4 place last year.
    It's all very well being able to walk all over lesser opposition (wish we could do it more often), but they will have to show more desire to win against other top 6 rivals if they want to make a serious challenge.
    Even if I hate watching it, I can at least understand the tactic of trying to stifle a game and then nick it, but they didn't even try that.

    <laugh> #bbcsalford 's week long propaganda campaign trying to convince everyone Man Utd had won the game and the league before a ball was kicked was a good use of the license fee then #thatwentwell

    Mourinho brought the most expensive team in history to Anfield and made 13 times as many fouls as shots on target #fraud

    You can't even argue they were missing Pogba and Lukaku since we were missing Lallana and Mane #firstnameontheteamsheet #secondnameontheteamsheet

    Liverpool dominate Man Utd so #bbcsalford call Liverpool "wasteful" rather than admit Man Utd are crap and can only hope to beat teams they've outspent by more than 10 times <laugh>

    "Mourinho masterclass in defensive organisation" <laugh>

    why do they think Hose-a will be the happier manager? his team were out played and spent most of there time defending. I doubt if that was Burnley and Sean Dyche doing that they would say Dyche was giving a "masterclass"

    Salah was creating plenty in the first half. The Ox created a couple after coming on. We all know Mane can create too. It's not just Coutinho
