Objective achieved.
Mourinho totally neutralised the attacking threat of Liverpool.
A point achieved is better than no points at the home ground of your most bitter rivals.
Different opposition,different tactics.

Yeah, hope your objective in UCL would be to get a point and neutralize attacking threats... Thank your stars that David De Gea still stands between those sticks.

SMH for all of you.

You better be contented with this draw. Liverpool's attack is not as sharp else we could've shipped 2.

I wonder why those who attacked people who complained bitterly about the match against So'ton are complaining about this game. The So'ton match was actually worse. We defended better against Liverpool and although we lost possession stup.idly sometimes, it wasn't as bad as the other game.

"If you don't like it, go and join Man City, they plan ghen ghen football"

If we had Fellaini, maybe, just maybe, we would've won. He's better at aerial balls than Lukaku- which obviously was our major game plan today. Lukaku didn't do well, despite being isolated up front. He lost a majority of aerial duels with Liverpool's central defence pairings. With his build and height, I wonder why he didn't ride those guys like a horse.

Hopefully, this mentality of defending when playing away against top teams and trying to win the rest of the matches will win us the league.

In a game like this where it was pretty clear that we weren't gonna have too many clear-cut goal-scoring opportunities, I think he shoulda tucked that chance away in the 1st half.

Shii happens sha.

Mourinho did not totally neutralise nada.

You have DDG to thank for the cleansheet

This argument again. Is De gea part of the United defence or not?
De gea is part of the defensive sheild created by Jose to neutralize Liverpool. The onus is now on our fellow title contenders to go to Anfield and beat Liverpool to show they are better than us.
Once again a Mourinho tactical defensive master class and a very precious and valuable point gained.

Neu what? We didn't neutralise shît. We're just lucky Loserfool had no good striker.

Agreed Liverpool had no good strikers, but we did defend okay. They had 19 shots, 5 were on target.

Let them be deceiving themselves with defensive masterclass. The years De Gea was our player of the year, what was our league finishes? Anybody with a speck of sense and a Fibre of honor in them will know this is disgraceful. De Gea yet again saving us with a super human reflex when it should have been martial, Lukaku or any other player giving a game of his life. In a derby at the home of a terribly poor team that has seen teams score in their home, we dey labor to even get ball reach attack... instead playing Westbrom football. Tufiakwa

Tactics my friend. This is a precious point gained.
The objective was to defend and catch them on a counter,unfortunately The chance that fell to Lukaku was saved by Mignolet.

Don't you think that we concentrated on their strengths and never exploit their weakness? Everyone knows pool has a shaky defence, why not have a go at it?

What are you objecting to. If that game continued till the next day,Liverpool would not have broken that defence.

Nope. Everything is fine and the team is great. Not sure what you're complaining about. We got a point and a clean sheet. Absolutely nothing to complain about. Remember such a post will mean you should go and support another team.
Seriously this is frustrating to watch. Better I had a sleep than this sh!t. angry Bar running around there's nothing in this L'pool today. How's it this team can't string 2 to 3 passes? We've to depend on hoofing it to Fellaini always.

Why can't Martial and Rashford play together? Is it a crime. I don't mind Rash replacing Mhiki and Martial staying.
i just tire. Where i was watching the match, some peeps were saying, you can't put them in the same match.
In my mind i said, why messi neymar and suarez dey start, whats the use of your best players.

It's not even the 5 shots that worried me; there were times in the game when Loserfool made some incisive crosses too easily in our box but no striker to bury it. Chicharito would've scored one of those unconnected crosses.

It wasn't a defensive masterclass from us but I'm happy with the point.

Tactical masterclass ko, magical masterchef ni.
We were saved by a combo of bad finishing and super goalkeeping. The tactics mainly helped in crippling our attack and giving us only one decent chance, luckily Liv squandered their plethora of chances.

The issue is not even whether the tactics worked or not, the problem is why does JM season after season deploy bus parking tactics against this mediocre Liverpool side? This side with part time defenders who were made to feel like Baresi and Maldini today.
We didn't gain 1 point today, rather we lost 2.

Largely untroubled yet he had to make 5 or 6 saves in this game despite averaging 1 or 2 per match

Yeah bruh. I hear ya.

DDG was MOTM cos of that single save he made in the 1st half - the others were routine saves any decent GK woulda made.

Yes, he was largely untroubled

Champions League-different tournament from the English premier League.
Different tournament, different tactics.
It is not to play gung-ho football,it is to be tactical. And I assure you the team with the better tactics will win the Premier League this season.
And while you are at it,can you remind me the name of the club David De gea plays for

The thing weak me no be small. The tactics was dead on arrival, coupled with terrible players, it's an eyesore. This is 2pt lost.

True that. Lukaku should've buried that chance but I'm not even pissed at him for that. It's the fact that he couldn't trouble Liverpool's defenders that irks me. Some strikers shorter and smaller than him would've shown those 2 CBs hell today.

But like you said, shii happens. We cannot come and go and kill awasef.
