There was a debate on BBC Sport this morning about which players United need to buy in order to compete. The same debate we’ve had annually for a decade.

Spending millions is pointless. They’ll simply be putting a sticking plaster on a compound fracture. If they haven’t learned that by now, we’re merely set for more of the same, for years to come.

Oh boy I hope so. Growing up in the 90s it was painful watching United win seemingly everything in sight. This united side is wonderful. Truly wonderful.

Only 1 foul. If you can't stop them fairly at least kick someone and stop their momentum. They've been pathetic.
Everton play liverpool on Sunday. At the very least I expect us to be right in their faces, ruffle their feathers, put someone on their backside at some stage. You have to knock a team like liverpool off their stride, if you don't have the team to outplay them. I can't believe how utd are just standing off them. There won't be a spec of dirt on either teams kit yet.

I’d like to put ManU in the things that gladden the heart thread. But I’ll keep the football related stuff in here.

Exactly this. If you can't match them in terms of quality at least match them in effort and fight.

Every day's a school day ......................... and Utd were schooled tonight.
Well played Liverpool, I just hope that City don't let things slip! ;)

Don’t think I have ever seen a worse Man Utd team when it comes to structure and effort

Even during the 80’s they at least put up a fight for the shirt

Fernandes is supposed to be the quality yet he just walks around the pitch

Great respect from the Liverpool fans after 7 minutes.
Superb performance from them.
Once again shocking from Utd.
I said after 2 games RR wasn’t the answer and I have been proved right.
A massive overhaul is needed.
Liverpool are that good they could do the quadruple,now that would be unbearable:).
Still I suspect Liverpool will beat Everton by more than 4
