Minimum it ends 1-1 I don't think they can expect to defend and not conceed against us. Expect a much better 2nd half TT is not opposed to half time sub's or the hairdryer treatment if players aren't performing.

I'd be surprised if Tuchel has a hairdryer with that comb over.

Really! That's actually a decision that would require a choice?

Who would you choose to take off? Jorginho or Gilmour? Our worst player in that half or our best?

Well there’s ya answer - Billy Off

Utd will lose that one. A motivated Klopp side is dangerous

If Liverpool do win that one they will get uncomfortably close to us unless we can turn this one around.

They have become our bogey team we seem to always f**k up against them.

They have beat us 3 times in 8 years what you been watching 😂

Why are so many people saying they saw this defeat coming ? its only HT !

Well we managed to come back against City so hopefully TT remembers what he said at half time there.

 

Big problem is we have no Kante. No Kante not a lot of hope.

WTF we take off Gilmour and leave on Jorgi, stupid call by TT.

Maybe my standards for him are too high but looking at the goal again I'm wondering if Silva should have committed to marking Smith Rowe and gambled on Kepa saving from Auba.

Gilmour off instead of Jorginho, strange one that. 

 

That is strange. Looks like CHO RW, and Pulisic LW and mount back in midfield.

Well well 😂

Well that was... unfortunate. A no-look backpass the one time the man who never comes off his line goes for a wander. 

To be honest I do feel like we will break Arsenal down if we are patient, but it will require a tweak to the front three. Pulisic and Havertz have been pretty ineffectual - I’d hook one (probably the former) for Hudson-Odoi and bring Giroud on later if we still haven’t scored. I have a feeling we might see Werner... this really isn’t the game for him.

Gilmour is showing the most ambition on the ball but again has been inconsistent in his execution. If he improves that part of his game he will be a serious midfielder! Silva was probably next, but long balls to Havertz’s head won’t work - putting the ball in front of Azpilicueta, James and Pulisic a little more so.

Come on Chels!

Wonder what all those who were downplaying Utd chucking the game against Leicester last night are thinking now?

I feel the same as I did last night. I'm fed up with counting on other teams to slip up so we can secure a spot, we need to start relying on ourselves again. If this lot ever want to start challenging for the league again, they need to learn to do the job themselves instead of hoping others slip up.

I thought he should have focused on cutting the angle for the cut back as well to be fair but it all happened so quickly and I imagine it was panic stations for all of them after the back pass.
