Liverpooll vs Manchester United 3-0 Post Match Analysis

the dazzling boots are in the dressing room congratulations be carefully don't step on your foot just intentionally maybe maybe talk us through that then what emotions are going in that Liverpool dressing room right now after that demolition of Manchester United it's a great result you know everybody know that Derby is like very important for the city for the fans so also the manager like first game for him in in here so we're so happy for the result and yeah we need to just carry on if you want to fight for the league you have to win each game and that's a big game so I'm I'm glad that we managed to win it there was something similar in a way about all three goals that came from Liverpool winning back possession pretty high up the pitch was that a key part of the game plan here this afternoon I managed to be involved in three so I'm happy about that uh yeah I think the manager like us to press High and um they did couple of mistakes and we managed to use them so yeah it was part of the plan and when you do win the ball back moving it so quickly now we've seen that from Liverpool before but is this different the Precision that we're seeing in these Liverpool attacks it's not quite not not not a big different because was and first a few years we were always like this we Tred to get the ball as high as possible then with the time we managed to to change our system or the way that we play uh but yeah it's quite similar then like like seven years ago but yeah I think the manager has his own system and we all try to adapt to that a you got to talk to me about your summer you've come back bro you're smiling ear to ear you got a new trim listen what's the vibe man what what was the summer for you you've come back you're flying you sharp three goals three assists tell me about it bro honestly I just um I had a good summer I had a long time to just uh to stay with myself and try to think positive because as you know this is my last year in in the club um I just want to enjoy it and just uh I don't want to think about it uh but just like I feel I'm free to play football and we'll see what's going to happen next year I ask you something the second half are you surprised about how easy it was did it seem like an easy game well you scored three goals you could have scored five six goals the chances you missed to be fair I I was surprised because the game was open and we knew that after first half they losing they are two n down so they going to come and just try to play Man marker and just run behind us in the whole pitch but um it's I'm agree with you I was a little bit surprised because the game could finish five or six but um still it's tough team but today it wasn't their day and bro against man united you always seem to do something whether it be a goal whether it be an assist today you seven games in a row you did the assist and I know you I know you was thinking yo I need a goal yeah to be fair I just um like I was in in in halftime I managed to give two assists and just like it's my time to score I want to score I love to score um this is something I really love to do and as much as I score on the team winning that's the most important thing well if we don't know his name is Mo this scor go he love to scor him goals what else has changed mod with this manager uh it's been a brilliant start for him it's quite tricky to say but I think uh everybody now like also before we had like we have Borgen for seven years so it's kind of you get like in Comfort Zone somehow he's always tried to he was always trying to push us outside our comfort zone but you know when you are with the manager for 7 years somehow you get into the comfort zone but with a new manager he come with his style and he just want everybody to adapt and he had a few meeting with the senior group and just like he told him look you need to to set an example for the for the young players and yeah you need to work hard and yeah I think we're following his hisem well and hopefully we carry on like that and if this is your last season as you say this could be your last time ever playing here yeah to be fair I was coming to the game I said look it could be a last time nobody in the club talked to me yet about contract so I just like okay I played my last season and see in the end of season you missed this place there won't you I my second I don't know with wi Club but so far yeah my last game here with Liverpool well look we hope that it's not you know I hope uh it's not up to me but nobody talk to me about the from the club but uh we will see uh we wish you well Mo congratulations on a brilliant start the season and a great day for Liverpool today thank you Mo what what was the line if you don't need's a tread his gold record his little touches his movement and again when you watch Him Live you see the big a picture honestly great example you know I really enjoy watching him obviously it's hard to take for United today but you got to give credit where it's St he is a world class player Roy didn't like our exchange he had a little bit of baned together you knowers yeah I know but I listen I I warned you before you got to say a humble and victory and defeat you obviously didn't listen I was having a chat with my old pal that wasn't a chat that was a Broman miles from the Liverpool dressing room and more reactions are coming and you can understand why and we were switch on the opening day uh for Match Day Live uh we both covered the game against brenford last week and we both said well this will be interesting today could you have envisage that going that well for Liverpool no I mean it's been perfect hasn't it right the way from from the start of the Season okay it's only three games but we looked at the results there 2-0 2 n 3- n not conceding anything you know not conceding hardly any chances Allison's made one or two saves there today but when you come to Old Trafford you expect your goalkeeper to have to put in a really good performance he only had one or two saves um they've looked very efficient very effective um and their players their attacking players are still scoring goals you know when you try to change it slightly to be a little bit more structured and a little bit safer then sometimes you can lose that edge up front but they look as as rampant as they've always done and I think what put into perspective when where we were sitting we saw Nunes and gakpo warm up in front of us and come on K was sitting behind us and Liverpool have six when they fit forwards going for three places I was just exactly what I was thinking of when you see the squad the first 11 was brilliant and probably that was probably their easiest game out the three they bad um and then we saw the subs warm up go past I thought wow this is a proper Squad of players and he's I think he's been quite fortunate to walk into that of course he's got to put his own stamp on it and I'm sure he will we've seen the first three games they've looked defensively better although did they concede a couple of chances I think xer had a couple of chances where he could have scored the keeper did make a save but on the whole it's a real dominant performance from Liverpool we talk about the six forwards they've got they've also got five brilliant Midfield players you think of Curtis Jones who's not here today rvel who can come into that but I think he really likes enony if you know in the game he didn't change enony it was all the forwards it was the right back it was a left back so look there's a real dominance about that Liverpool Squad they could really challenge for for that title this year do you know what even three games in yeah three games in yeah well look at before a ball had been kicked I thought Arsenal might be there year to give City a real goal and possibly going to win it but after watching the first three games I I think Liverpool could go past Arsenal and they were up there for a long long part of the season last year they only fell away the last few games but if they keep that Squad together they keep the majority of that fit I think that's a team that can challenge S without without a Shad of a doubt what do you think I agree I think Pep Guardiola if you asked him now who's your biggest danger he'd be a tossup between you know I think start you thinko yeah I think at the start of the Season he might have said might have said arsal because you know what you're going to get same manager same players they've added one or two you knew what you're going to get there was a little bit of what's going to happen at at Liverpool new manager you know is it going to be totally new style are they going to take a while to adapt all these questions of course the one good thing from Liverpool's point of view is they kept the squad you know there was hardly any outgoings okay no incom as well hardly but it was a it was still a structured and he was walking into a squad that's absolutely in the guts of their careers you know all the big players are uh the absolute you know peak of their powers so but there were questions but having seen three G I don't want to get ahead of myself but after three games you look at that and think wow it's going to take a special team to stop them they you know they've just swatted Manchester United aside that team from Manchester United Okay he didn't play well in it but Liverpool didn't let them play well it wasn't an injury ravage team at all or it was a good Manchester United Team on paper that was minimum of fuss swatted as side yeah you'd have to say apart from hland that's United strong Luke Shaw yeah maybe yo but not far away it's not yeah Euro as well a young kid we really not sure what we're going to what we're going to get with I no I think the back five could be okay but I still think in front of that we we are going to be show you see the area of the pitch three goals today were three Mistakes by Midfield Midfield players really and again the attacking third was just no way there the likes of what we've seen today from Liverpool Marcus rashford is his confidence is shut to Pieces when he should be taking people on he's turning back and it's it's not like him gacho's still young we still got to give him time and obviously the young lad settle settle in he's going to take a bit of time I think the biggest thing guy notices from from being pitch side and actually looking at the Players Liverpool look fitter they look more athletic but they also have more quality I think that was a concern I think the likes of Manu might take a bit of time to get going I thought Bruno for looks a bit sluggish C obviously KN game hasn't played and that was that was a big thing that struck me now we're only early in the season but there are things that would worry are the team working hard enough behind the scenes to be as fit as they should be they just didn't look fit enough to well they've had that many injuries and it must be playing in their mind as well mustn't they they've had so many injuries over the last couple of Seasons under under T hard and that's that's another problem and then if you start second guessing yourself should we train should we should we go a littleit easier but you know no such problems for Li Michael was going to say as well they keep bringing Center halfs off now if you've got a center half you can't get through a game that that's a big concern mean that tells me they're not fitting enough straight from the off you only bring Center Center back four should always stay together really you might bring the odd right back off here and there if you're wrestling people but two Center halfs should be there for the full game and it's been the first three games now they've changed Center back how can a center back not be fit enough I know and and I wouldn't mind but that was a problem position that there's so many you mentioned before the game how many different Partnerships they've had so you'd think there' be one area that they'd want to to to to keep quite stable and let's get it right center halfes you look at all the stats all the numbers they do less running than anybody on the pitch by the goalkeeper so it's not like it's a a huge that's what I'm saying they should be there for 19 minutes if I'm sure they can I don't know I don't know why he just keeps chopping and changing it I mean no you can have your excuse of the Euros can't you say it takes a little bit of time to get going of course it is but Liverpool have players there as well other teams have got players there you don't see them struggling as I said to Michael right at the start that's three games now he's just made that one alteration uh K Quanza and canate and he's had a real settled look about it hasn't he yeah and I do like that obviously the games will start coming thick and fast so it'll be really interesting to see how he uses his Squad however at the moment you know it looks like he's just you know we're we maybe because he he's new as well to the to the team maybe he just wants to get that consistency so all of a sudden he can get his points across even better than he normally would but it's very consistent so far keep keep praising onest lot Michael cuz he's joining us life you came in at the right time there there we go the Liverpool supporter is still inside the ground you can hear them singing the name of their new manager very well done how pleasing was that all around for you today yeah very pleasing I think we saw all the things you want to see there were difficult moments in the game for us we started I think United were very aggressive in the start we came through that then we had a goal diss out we came through that so we were mentally really strong today and with the ball I think uh we saw an excellent performance as well did you expect it to be that control today you really had control of the game yeah you hope for it of course um expect is not the right word I think I said before the game to the players that there will be difficult moments today and then you have to fight yourself through so till now with I switch and brenford we only had the positives and then that you work hard okay that I can understand but I want to see how it is if it's tough and there were tough moments today and I think we constantly saw how aggressive we were how how much we ran without the ball and uh deserved win I think Onie congratulations I was just wondering the three goals that that Liverpool scored today all from pressure that you caus mistakes in the Midfield was that a specific Target from you today or is that just how you like your team play winning the ball in Midfield and breaking quick yeah I think the way Liverpool likes to play in general and and and and and I'm the same like this so we want to press high as high as we can uh we know with the type of players we have because they can run very good but if they arrive in the jeel they're really strong uh so the threee midfields we have with Maka with d and with Ryan they can run and they can arrive in a jewel and um and they ke and they kept running so we won the ball back a few times but I think the first goal we scored which was disallowed which came not from a pressing situation my football heart would have loved that goal to count unfortunately it didn't yeah an congratulations again I think your first 11 are very strong but also we were just that two rolls back and we see the subs walk past uh sorry warming up and think that is such a strong Squad that's going to be a tough part of your job this year to try and keep all them players happy yeah I think it's impossible to keep a player happy if he's not playing uh but uh they now go to the international team play two games come back I think in 21 days we play seven games so the the schedule is crazy so you need these amount of players the good thing for us that they're all fit so that's why you see them as well um but yeah it's it's always I I also saw some some players in the dressing room they were happy but in a different way than the ones that that played of course yeah and apart from the goals and the wins three consecutive clean sheets yet to concede and you said about that Foundation to go and play how pleasing is that pleasing although in the second half we needed Alison two times uh which is normal if you play United away that that that you sometimes need your goalkeeper but in an ideal situation uh he's only there to play out from the back but we needed him two times and in those moments the game can change we all know they better than me how things can uh can change over here if they would have scored a goal but it was good to see that in the end we kept control over the game and yeah I said it before deserved the win you talked about the experience of this fixture we saw you with those Liverpool supporters that are still here singing your name celebrating with them at the end what did that feel like this third game in to come here and win like that at Old Trafford as Liverpool manager yeah it's a big win so the moment you you think about this is in the end phase of the game where you feel like okay with five minutes to go I don't think they they can score free anymore so that's the moment where you start to realize okay this has been a special start but with this special start also comes the responsibility for us to be ready if they come back from an international break well they're singing your song again so um you're a popular man at the moment very well done today and we really appreciate you joining us thank you honor well done on the slot for you live matx Day live on thead well Bruno obviously it's a day that's not gone to plan at all why has it gone the way that it did obviously they they were um they were in the front foot I think we we start really well the game we we got some uh we got some chances uh we have to be more clinical we had this in the first game win the first game with me the first two chances we had against Fulham also uh we need be to be more clinical they were clinical they they knew how to to to make sure that they they they get into the spaces we we let free for them um and that's it for you it's not about picking out individuals or teammates but did it feel like the goal goals were self-inflicted today their goals the goals are always self-inflicted either way you want or not uh every goal uh most of the times is uh you need to commit a mistake for give them give them the goal uh but not about that it's more than that so we don't we don't have to be here pointing fingers to everyone and saying that you should have done better you should have done this you should have done that not going to help us now uh so it's not it's not the point and when you say it was more than that it was more than individuals what would you say it was no no what I mean is like when you consider the goal you can't you can't just point at one at one mistake it's more than it's usually more than one it's more than that and uh obviously you we can say that yeah if you if you lose the ball there in the middle and everything but what what's the point now saying that casemiro lost the ball Kobe lost the ball we then we have to we're going to lose the ball if we want to take risks they lost the ball because they wanted to be on the ball they they were Brave uh yeah they have to do better in that moments of course they have as everyone else has has to do better in many moments but it's part of football they they they they huge players for us and so don't don't make it individual that yeah and what's your role as Captain when a guys made a mistake or had a bad day how do you help them ah C is uh it's more experience than me so I don't need I don't need to tell him anything he knows he knows what uh what football is about and he knows that he's going to get some uh um some something now of the game and everything but he he he played for the two best clubs in the world so he's used to that so it's not it's not going to be never a problem for him to deal with that and Kobe is an excellent kid that works a lot works hard wants to be on the ball he's really Brave so I want him to be more times in the ball I want him to to try more and uh and and do this uh this kind of plays because he part of his game and he's strong so I don't want them to stop and and now thinking about about the mistake or something they they don't they don't need they're huge players for us and they will keep being there's been some positivity I think around the club first couple of weeks I know you lost to Brighton but also what the club had done in the transfer market is the problem with today did it feel quite a lot like some of the bad days last season no no we don't have to look at the past and think that uh every time that something happens it's uh it's for something that we did bad in the past so he coming to happen the same again we just have to make it different that's it we lost the game uh congratulations to Liverpool they were more clinical than us uh I think if uh I don't like to talk about stats but the game was tight but at the end of the day is score more goals that win the game so they they did it they win the game congratulations to them they were better than us in that aspect and we have to carry on and understand what we can to better for [Music] for for for
