Great to win a game like that.

Ole got the tactics right, we were more adventurous than the last game, in fact that's what we should have done last week. The substitutions were decisive on 65 mins when we usually wait too long. I don't understand why Lindelof gets picked in front of Bailly, he wasn't very good, nor was McTominay but it worked overall. Shaw was excellent again, especially first half.

Well done to Ole for the decisions today. We don't win anything today, he has to make today count at the end of the season. Let's hope Rashfords knee is ok.

Red man I think Bailly had a knock. honestly I’m not 100% on that mind.

Well done to our team and Liverpool too. They were good and match could go either way. I don't agree with Redman, Shaws positioning wasnt good and Maguire was worst than Lindelof but he has a free pass sometimes because he is English?
But the player that let me down is Henderson. I think he is slow at reactions, leave his goal for no reason sometimes trying to become the new Noier and his reflexes is nowhere near De Geas. For a huge man he isn't excellent at the air too. Henderson himself were the one saying all time that he is good enough and he didn't want to go to another club at loan and that's the reason we "lost" best numper 2 in world football Romero and Dean doesn't play in order to improve. I think it was a terrible mistake keeping him and i think that's all is his fault.

{Ed0666's Note - Henderson is excellent he just needs a run of games to prove his capabilities.

Henderson is a very good keeper.

Red Man, except for Shaw I agree with everything else you said. Shaw got caught out several times with Salah and others making a run behind him and we got lucky they could not make the most of it.

For both their goals he was slow to react even though he exactly knew what was coming. For the first goal both him and Lindelof were at fault, Lindelof not holding his position and Shaw just let's Salah go past him without tracking his run and he repeats the same for the second goal as well. It's almost like he is indecisive in such situations and delays a second or two making a decision and allows his runner to get ahead of him. And this keeps happening with him almost all the time.

Herrera, it's a little harsh on Henderson who has only played a couple of games for us and he needs a run of games like Ed0666 pointed out. One thing that DeGea struggles with is commanding the box and he hesitates to step out of his line when balls are played through and the defenders expect the GK to be coming for the ball. Henderson is much better in that regard and is decisive in such situations. His overall game is better than DeGea and has the potential to be a fantastic keeper for us in the coming years.

I am not so sure Ed0666 but ofcourse i wish you are dead right mate. But i think it was a wrong decision anyway because he has only played one Premier League season . I would like to loan him again to have a run of games and grow as a keeper.

{Ed0666's Note - his time is now mate. He’s proved at Sheffield United he’s more than able to be England’s No 1. You can’t expect him to be top of the pops by playing a game here and there. No rhythm equals no form. Just as we saw with Conor Mcgregor you stay away from the octagon for so long and rustiness creeps in.

Henderson is a bit dodgy but he might improve with game but he isn't going to get that at United and he is not as good as DeGea.

McGuire has been excellent recently. He has really started to play well. I think Salah goal was also caused by confusion that lidelof had swapped next to shaw - didn't notice why that had happened in the build up - but mcguire and shaw had played Salah very well in both games.

Their second goal looked like hendo could have done better, but is tough to move feet quick enough to save that. We are used to seeing DDG doing that, and is one of his strongest attributes. Hendo is a good keeper and is doing well. More games to come for him, and he has pushed DDG on this year.

Caolan i am clearly not mate. That doesn't mean i am not over the moon with the results recently. But i am afraid with our own golden boys a lot. Historically we get there a lot of times. He played only one year top flight football and that's it, because of that he is ready and he is good etc and we gave him i think a new big contract and he was the reason we lost the best numper two in world's football Romero. We and he must have accepted that he is a work in progress and he must go to another team to play regural football.
I am not saying he won't be good, Ed01 said he is good, 0666 saying the same. Although i don't see something special i respect these mans opinions but at the moment he must have been at another club playing regular.
