Very very close to a huge win there. I think young switched off, but here we are.
A lot of positives there, I saw passion, commitment and fight. I slate Pereria a lot, but today credit to the lad he was outstanding. I think we should also give ole some credit as I think the tactics were spot on. Shame we didn't have much on the bench that we could have used to help see that game out. Very tough one to throw the youngsters on the bench into if you ask me.
Let's build on this now.

Agree. Perreira was more effective in an advanced role today rather than sat deep, passing it sideways to Fred. Still not convinced he is quite good enough, but A for effort today.

He may or may not turn out to be good enough in the long run, but that has been his best position since his academy days. No surprise it's probably been his best game.

Must have watched a different Pereira, thought he gave it away a few times. I'd move him on come the summer.
{Ed047's Note - the whole game was garbage, nobody played well.

Scrappy in general, Mort. Referring more to his influence in the game.

Andreas' best game and probably still a 6.5/ 10.
One really bad decision made when he shot instead of playing in AWB. Rest was
Today was ok and good improvement.
Still remain unconvinced Ole is making the right in game decisions; we handed the impetus to Liverpool and made the wrong subs and left the too late as per. That said if we had a real left back we would have won.
McTomminay was solid, AWB raises us levels, Pogba not missed, Fred/ Young utter crap.

Fred and McTominay were very industrious. Closed down spaces very well.
Andreas's best position is CAM but he drifts in and out of the games.
James - breathtaking pace.

Fair enough Steve. I still think he's not good enough and he can't really be classed as young anymore. We need someone to come in and grab that position.
I also say we need a left back.

I don't think he's developed the way I hoped he would. I'd like to think a run of games in that position might see the player we hoped he would become, but I'll admit, it's looking less and less likely.
