Both needed the win really.

In itself it's not a bad result but now 7 points behind Chelsea. A win was kinda necessary.
Would've taken a point 2 hours ago. Leading for an hour you should really win the game though. Utd were absolutely shite considering their "form" and Liverpool's weak lineup.

Fraudiola just out frauds Fraudinho. Terrible performance from United. Very lucky. A draw was not good enough.

Draw is okay for me. If we were playing better maybe not but we never really troubled them at the goal. We've really gotta get fired up for Chelsea, get the team playing like we were a couple months ago. Coutinho was looking pretty good even coming off of injury so I have hope.
Yep, can't help but feel robbed there at the end.

Feel we should have won it after leading for so long. Great chances for Firmino and Wijnaldum as well.
It wasn't even debatable and I'd have said the same if it was a Liverpool player.

We created chances, but didn't take them and that sucked.
Thank god we got the equalizer.
Midfield being over run was the biggest problem. Pogba should have been off instead of Martial.

Yeah. I really feel we were robbed. Pogba should have been off the pitch. At least 4 United players should have been on yellow cards.
Fucking joke.
No one is saying it wasn't a penalty so I've no idea what you're on about.
Reading another forum and I see countless "delusional Liverpool fans" and "there goes their year".
It's reached critical mass of projection at this point.

Good thing on GAF then we have level-headed, impartial and unbiased football fans, eh?
We were totally shite, and got an undeserved draw, but thank fuck we aren't Man City tonight

I hope Chelsea drops some points then. I want the PL to stay interesting and Kloppo-kun to succeed.

Complete saints in comparison
I know we can all get together and agree Guardiola is the real fraud, right?
Also Zlatans heading skill in FM2017 at 13? lol.
And on Sky Sports 1, asshole Souness gonna asshole.
Spurs are a better bet to challenge Chelsea this season based on current form.
Undeserved draw? Really?
Look at how many good chances we squandered. We didn't play the best we could but it was a good effort all-around. The team didn't give up and pushed for the win. It was a satisfactory performance.

Twitter, tons and tons of mancs crying about that penalty, claiming theyre hard done by

Well, I still feel like it'll be decided between teams which are not in European competitions. So Liverpool and Chelsea (at the moment). I bet Spurs will go at least 3 knockout rounds in EL.

3 shots on target at home? lol. No.
1st half was dreadful, 2nd half was a minor improvement that lead to a goal that was offside. Terrible performance. Also the worst performance by Pogba so far, which is easy to say. Whole team were gash though. Even Mourinho admitted it was a poor performance.
If Chelsea were playing this game they'd have beat that Liverpool side by 3 or 4.

I think you mean they would have beaten that United side by 3 or 4 goals.

Liverpool would have beat them, amirite?
Also what is it with Guardiola's post match interviews? lol

I don't think my post said anything about Liverpool beating Chelsea, but if they beat us it wouldn't be by 3 or 4 goals. We were missing about 4 or 5 first team regulars today. I believe if we had Clyne and Matip, they wouldn't have scored.
Lucky that Liverpool did beat them when they did at the bridge, Otherwise it's pretty much over.
A point is better than nothing but we really needed a win to close that gap up. City getting spanked is great but 3 points would have been better.
At least the unbeaten run continues.
Stoke(A), Hull(A), Leicester(H) and Watford(A) to play now before we have City(A).
Na I don't think he's a fraud, I just don't think he's had to manage in a league where you can get beaten by every team on their day, or where you have all 90+ players but everyone else is at least 75+ and not 60+. It's by far and away his biggest test as a manager.

I'm guessing Guardiola's second season oughta be much better than the first one, I think for someone like him, coming from spain and Germany, it will take some time to get the hang of the game in the isles.
Now for Real Madrid - Sevilla
I smell Ronaldo brace incoming

That was my point, this was a weakened Liverpool team and it showed how poor United were.

Madrid is going to drop points here from what I've seen, can't create chances. If you don't shoot you can't win.

Chelsea got Arsenal(H) and Liverpool(A) in the 3 upcoming games. Hopefully some dropped points there... :c
