We are better without him though apparently according to many folk on here. 😂
Best game I’ve seen from him in ages.
...and in ALL those "previous performances" he was United's best player on the pitch..
If yer gonna look for problems, it's best to start looking in the right places.
Nuff said - as us oldies used to say
Of course actions speak louder than words over the coming weeks, but I like that it wasn't an OTT reaction to getting a point at Anfield.

M how many times have we seen this when they raise their game against big teams then revert to being shiiit against lesser ones. This means fack all unless they back it up
I felt more confident today with you guys having Bruno in the team but I’ll eat my words, he was MOTM clearly.
Whenever I've seen United Fernandes is usually your best player. Not captain material for me but takes a lot of crap due to team performances when he hasn't had much to work with around him.
Keep the lad. He toyed with Liverpool and mostly couldn't be dispossessed. This team must build on this performance.

I agree, so we will see over the coming weeks. No doubt it suits us playing bigger teams who give us space to play, so we have to find a way of putting in good performances and breaking down sides around and just above us in the table.
I hope we see a more settled side, with most of who were playing today starting on a regular basis. If this doesn't give the squad a boost and some confidence, nothing will.
Bruno dominated Liverpool. He’d be their best midfielder by a mile and were lucky to have him.
You cup final though ain't it.....that's your problem, you need a Liverpool to get you going when times are tough.
There is another 18 teams....Utd forget this!!
We’ve turned more corners than the Nokia snake… but I’m back to being optimistic again!

Honestly, in recent years we would often roll over and get beat, so I take optimism from that. And it wasn't a park the bus lucky to get a draw.
But we need to take this into other matches, and it will mean sod all if we just go back to old ways in previous games

Ugarte was our best player.
I think Arsenal will get knocked out by United but you’ll lose your next PL game. Your attitude is shocking outside of the big games, that’s your problem.

You're not even a Scouser mate. I love closer to Liverpool than you do I'm sure.
This game means everything to the fans and you're 9 wins behind us still in the all time head to head. 👍

It's a mixture of approach and not being able to break teams down. Against bigger teams, we get more space to play, so can create more, but of course we aren't scoring many either.
But against the smaller teams, we need to learn how to break these teams down, and of course to be more clinical when chances come our way.
Of course the effort has to be there, but there's also a lack of confidence, which hopefully today's performance can boost.
I'm not so sure about the Arsenal game, but next league game is at home to Southampton, and how we perform in that when the expectation is there is key.

No one forgets this. But it's true that better teams leave more space behind, which is why we've perhaps created more against top sides than against organised low blocks. Learning how to manufacture space for ourselves is something I'd expect Amorim to focus on as he gets more time on the training ground.
Some of is also that we are actually suited to largely playing on the break, which is why we tend to do ok against teams like pool. It’s when we have possession and have to take initiative we don’t do so well at.
Agree OP.
He had a good game today. His weakness imo has generally been a lack of discipline - tactically and emotionally. If Amorim can get that part of his game in shape then he could be a fantastic player for us.

How was it our cup final, the most noise on this forum about this game has come from the likes of you.
He usually hides in these kind of games but was actually very good today, credit where it’s due.
Just hoping Arsenal somehow win the league as I don’t want Liverpool on 20. Last seasons collapse could happen again. I honestly was shocked how bad Liverpool were. You didn’t even look that good going forward and wide open in defence.
