I'm a united fan, always have been since the days of watching Irwon, keane and other Irish greats wear that famous red jersey. Always will be until I'm gone. That's how sports works.
You take the good with the bad. And yesterday was one of the bad ones.
Liverpool are a great team, with a great manager and a top class player in Salah. There is no getting away form that fact. Unfortunately that where we are at for now.
But United just made it so damn easy ofr them. They just had no organisation, no passion, no cohesivness, no plan. They were running aorund in circles with no where to go. Where was their Keane?
The onfield leader to set the tone, rally the troops and drive foward. No one stepped up. Ronaldo is a goal scorer and a match winner but that's not his role.
what Liverpool had more than anytihng was a team spirit and a will to win. United didn't. They have all the talent in the world and great individuals but they don't have the team spirit.
Could another manager change that?
I honestly don't see one who is available that could. I like Brendan Rodgers for the spot next but he is happy where he is.
Ole has done great work to date and is punching very much above his weight. He is in a job that he has no right to be in and done well limited skills and knoledge.
he got them to second last year and had them moving forward when others couldn't.
He has done as much as he can but i don't know if he can last much longer. Things were already piling up but this looks very bad for him. Unfortunatly there is no ready made replacement as the best managers are already with the best teams.
That game hurt to watch yesterday. I was trying to get some work done but was so pissed off watching it that i couldn't concentrate. If i went onto the pitch at least i would have done something useful. The best move that was made all day was thekick Ronalo gave to the young lad. At least there was a bit of fire in it. Because everywhere else they just surrendered.
