Shame on Antonio Conte for not just setting up his team to lose and roll over for Liverpool to claim a straight forward win

- Another reminder tonight of just what an achievement it was Manchester United winning the treble in 98/99. Liverpool have wiped away all before them in the Premier League but crashed out of the FA Cup and now the Champs Lge within the space of eight days
- It’s January 15 and Manchester United are TWENTY FOUR points behind the Premier League leaders in a season they were expected to challenge for the title. They are, quite frankly, a disgrace
- 🚨 Bayern Munich reach total agreement with Liverpool to sign Luis Diaz. Deal for 28yo winger €75m + permission granted to travel for medical. Proposed 4+1yr contract at #FCBayern. Now ~£190m sales since Hughes became #LFC sporting director @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/65155…
- Just watched Maguire's disallowed goal back again - it really is a superb header. His elevation and momentum takes him over Pieters and his eyes are fixed firmly on the ball. What else is he supposed to do? It's an absolute shocker of a decision the more you watch it #mufc
- How can Manchester United start a brand new season with Timothy Fosu-Mensah and Daniel James as their right flank? They're supposed to be moving forward. As pressing as the need for a right-sided forward is, though, how another centre-half has not been prioritised is staggering
- Would like to see Souness’ reaction had someone turned his back on him and ambled off for a moment while he was talking and then had a hand dismissively waved at him …Micah Richards: "Kane's not turned up for training and we're calling him a saint, Pogba's never said he wanted to leave #mufc but he's getting abuse." #mulive [@footballdaily]
- Six defeats in the past 14 Premier League games for #mufc. This, don't forget, is the second most expensive squad ever built
- Bruno Fernandes telling Guardiola to ssshh. Puts a finger to his lip to silence the City manager
- Maybe more will appreciate now why there were #mufc fans who campaigned so vocally against the Glazers’ takeover in 2005. And those now in a flap who allowed it to happen - well, you reap what you sow. Greed, exploitation & the death of ambition, that’s the Glazers’ legacy at OT
- Ten Hag on boos for Maguire in win over Melbourne on Tuesday: “If you perform, it slows down.” #mufc
