    Always liked Sturridge and am very happy he got to go out a winner. Career was wrecked by injuries and he was always under appreciated.

    He’s actually the opposite of Henderson. He was always overrated.

    So now that we have all had a chance to process and unwind...we gotta get Salah off of penalties. I know it went in but oh my shit that was such a bad penalty.

    Gotta imagine Milly’s minutes reflect similarly to what we saw at the end of the season....primarily a 60-65 minutes-in sub

    Don’t like the thought of Salah being our primary PK taker for the first hour or all of most games

    Was it though? The keeper guessed right and couldn’t get a finger on it.

    I still agree with your sentiment.

    Salah, mane and hendo are not good at pens. I’d even argue firmino isn’t good at them either.

    My 5 for if we went to pens Saturday would have been robbo, Trent, VVD, Fabinho and Millie.

    Fabinho is the best we have after Milner I think.

    Gomez looked great before he broke his ankle, and Matip was incredible when he came into the team. I mean, we had he best defense in league.

    Just think De Ligt is the type of guy you get, if you can. Don't think we should upset the wage structure to sign him though.

    Salah almost always goes down the middle. It's a recipe for disaster

    And it’s ok to be middleish with your shot if you’re watching the keeper but he just puts his head down and hits it as hard as he can down the middle.

    So many heroes its crazy. Almost every player had a moment during the run. Also watching that made me remember how huge Alisson was during that run.

    Also real talk, VVD should win Ballon D'or this year but he won't. They'll give it to Messi again.

    Also wants a longer deal, but he deserves basically whatever he wants. Especially if he lands De Ligt

    Modric won it last year so there’s hope.

    I think he’s deserving. It’s hard to quantify exactly how impactful he and Alisson have been for you guys but they’ve been worth double what you paid

    Some relevant takes from the former Man U manager Van Gaal in a recent interview:

    I saw as Manchester United manager that the quality of the players of City, Tottenham, Chelsea, Arsenal was better. So what can I do? We were attacking. We were not defending and we were looking for tactical solutions adapted to the level of our players. For example we were provoking space and that was new in England. I think six months ago [Jürgen] Klopp has also seen the light because in former days he was always pressing.

    How do you provoke space?


    I have tried because of the speed of [Anthony] Martial and [Marcus] Rashford to provoke space by not pressing immediately but to come a little back, not parking the bus, but to the middle line and then the defenders halfway in our own half. Only with AZ did I do that before, also because of the lower level of my players, and of course I adapt to the quality of my players. You have to see it. Because I didn’t have the best quality of players, they could not perform the system to attack. For example, when Liverpool have to attack constantly, they have a problem, more a problem than, for example, Manchester City.

    Why?

    Because Salah, Firmino and Mané need a bigger space than Agüero, Sané and Sterling and also the creativity in City’s midfield is higher with De Bruyne, David Silva, Fernandinho and Bernardo Silva – they can play in a small space. That’s why City are the champions.
