It would be hilarious if it weren't sad that United pissed away a combined 29 million quid on Rojo and Darmian, for instance.

Actually the kids are generally outperforming many of the veterans and big money buys. If anything they should play more!

Today United's whole defence fell apart after Fosu-Mensah went off injured.

And the more famous players are very average and should be playing for Fulham or Newcastle.

I don't see a way for them to become 'a big club' again. Terrible squad.

Rojo is there because of superagent Jorge Mendes and Blind because LVG is mates with his dad. Just shows what happens when you buy players for reasons other than merit. What a mismanaged mess!

Blind isn't terrible, he's just not a center half. Rojo is dogshit, though.

Lol United are terrible.

Liverpool on the other hand own. Allen, Origi, Ojo and Stewart really stood out today. I honestly think Allen has done enough to stay at the club. Every time he's played under Klopp he's done the exact job he's there for. With Henderson out he should start imo.

I've also done a complete 180 on Origi. He looked raw as gently caress without any confidence at the start of the season but now he's a threat every time he gets the ball. He's got pace, power, good on the ball and a great work rate.

Allen does a great job at running around and getting in people's way. He's like a little terrier. Quite happy for him to stay next season as a rotation option.

Origi's been fantastic since Klopp came in.

One day Allen will get the ring to Mount Doom and then he'll be no good for anything anymore but in the meantime let's keep him.

Origi owns.

This is exactly what I don't remember him doing under Rodgers. Though thats probably because Can enables it rather than Gerrard or Henderson.

Also I hope the club are finding a way to give Divock some of Big Ben's wages, cos he is doing the job we bought that big lump for.

Yeah can't deny I judged Origi too quickly. All that about him being in the worst 11 in Ligue 1 last year, and a history of shite squad player forwards going back as far as I can remember, I didn't have much hope he was gonna do anything. But he's really exceeding expectations, it's great.

I like Henderson and there is clearly a good player there but he's really regressed since that Suarez season and I'd actually consider taking Allen over him.

Hopefully we buy an outrageously good cm to play alongside Can for next season

Most players on Liverpool have regressed since that season and that's because Suarez made them all look better than they were.

I agree with that to a certain extent but the main thing that hosed up Henderson was that heel injury imo.

Alli seems to not have this, Sterling sort of doesn't his problem is more just that he runs like a spastic and surprises his own self with his actions, it's like anti-vision.
