, his status is secure to the point there is no question he remains the best thing about the club.
United’s fixture list may have contributed to a freakish second half at Anfield, the strain of 21 games in 75 days — a rate of three per week — showing itself in some tired tackles and frazzled choices. Look at the body language, how they communicate with each other. They didn’t co-operate together anymore and they didn’t fulfil their jobs.”
Usually, Ten Hag uses the break to make adjustments and inspire improvements. This was the opposite. He felt United had the better of the opening period so made no changes, but matters quickly unravelled, with all players culpable. After Salah thumped in the fourth goal, following a breakaway from a United corner, Ten Hag had an expressive conversation with Antony, who had lost the ball on the edge of Liverpool’s box.
“We tried to go forward and score goals and we lost a bit of balance,” admitted Fernandes. “We gave too much space away against this kind of team.” At the final whistle, Weghorst went over to the United fans who had remained to offer applause. Steve McClaren then instructed the rest of the players still on the pitch to do the same. Those few hundred supporters clapped back.
