    1 - 1 United v Liverpool two great passes to two great finishes. 28 mins played, game is heating up.

    Feels like a practice match with no spectators doesn't it ?
    We need a win.

    Good game so far can go either way, the broadcast I am watching has fake crowd sounds playing.

    I am glad I got Salah back in he looks sharp, getting into good areas.

    Caught you at the right time though a win over Liverpool is always a sweet victory. Liverpool were looking better in attack today could easily of won the game, good game of football to watch.

    Bruno is one of your best signings ever ?

    If Da gea had played he could of saved at least 1 of the goals imo.

    But Becker can't seem to make any saves.

    Yeah Henderson should have done better for the second goal, De Gea being very good with his legs probably would have saved it.
    I thought at the time maybe Pogba may have made it difficult for Becker to see the free kick early.

    I heard not sure if true that some senior players went above Frank, he did a great job last season the influx of so many players this season would be tough for any manager, especially if they are players that Frank may not have wanted.

    No Mari, no Tierney, no Aubameyang, no Saka. Luiz over Gabriel. You're welcome United, that's three points in the bag.

    My thoughts too. Very scary line-up it is.

    My thought is that the starting eleven couldn't get much worse than this. This is going to be nasty.

    Big players missing, this will end up being a draw I think.

    True. And the thing is even if Arsenal have a complete and strong team, United are still a threat. But this sort of line-up just gives United a higher edge.

    Hmmmm. With this sort of line-up, I hope so.

    No way. Arsenal are more or less playing a cup team.

    Indeed, and typical that Arteta is forced to field a team like this in a game that means so much.

    Not that I think it will matter much seeing as Arsenal might struggle to finish top six, but still, there's the goal difference to think about too. Hopefully Arsenal won't come out of this game completely destroyed.

    Yeah. That's what we should be hoping for.

    0-0 in the end. Can't feel bad about that given the circumstances, but both teams must feel really annoyed about the missed chances. The only thing of note other than that is why the hell doesn't backing into players in mid air result in a booking? One day we're going to see a really serious injury from this.

    Yeah. Fair result @Fire_and_Ice_Returns got it right.

    Yeah, that is dangerous play that should be looked at by the officials.
