which universe is that? arsenal last won the league in 2006. We thrashed arsenal 8-2 in 2011/2012 season but man city won the premier league that season

my bad....getting older and memory failing

Mou was waiting for Everton to open up. At 1-0, Everton was pushing us especially on the 2nd half. But Mou just cool and didn't revert to defensive formation. Instead he sub in lingard, Herrera and Martial.
I think he was pretty confident our defence was able to deal with the bombardment.
Once we got the 2nd goal, the floodgate open.
If he reverted to defensive mode earlier, we might only win 1-0 or worse everton got the last min equaliser.

paying tribute to Arsenal who miss out on CL this season

Manchesdraw Utd to ManchesFour Utd

like what mourinho said, the football is like a chess. U plan your next move based on on your opponent's. With Utd losing pogba, carrick and fellaine, we can only put up matic/herrera against a 3 men midfielder from liverpool. we can cleary see that we were overrun in the midfield. That's y he's set up his team to sit deep and attack on the counter. JM is counting on Klopp to change the formation in putting another attacker and go all out to score and win the game. That's no brainer as liverpool is playing at home, trailing utd 7 points and not winning in the last 7 games. Yet, klopp was being cautious and keep the same formation until the final whistle. Only if he opens up, I guess Utd will be able to score late on
Also, if JM go for the offensive from start, it will be devastating if liverpool score first, as clearly we can't match them in the midfield. It might even end up like what happened to Arsenal.
JM was waiting for the window of opportunity, but it never come.
Not forgetting, Utd usually are losing a bit of form and momentum everytime after an international break. Of course i would not like this type of performance, but it it more important being pragmatic.

we will only left with 2 world class players -DDG and Pogba if Fellaini decided to move to PSG....
