I’m not Sancho fan by any means, but I think it’s a little unfair to rip him for last night. He did have a bad game, but he was out of position…
———-
He looked lost at the centre of the attack
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Think if it was a PL game then possibly Rashford would have started up front with the players we had available last night.

But with Rashford likely to play the majority of his games from the left was probably best to keep him there for familiarity and put anyone else who was available in the CF position.

In this case Sancho. Probably an indication of Sancho's position in the pecking order. We did similar with Hanibal v Arsenal when Rasmus got injured. Again, says much about Hanibal's squad status.

Last pre season, Sancho did well in the false nine.
But this game he found it tough going.
Then midday changed to the left wing. Tried to do his thing, but yeh, he’s defo down the pecking order.

Defo play him over Scott or Antony though…
Think Bruno and `Mainoo will calm things down.
Casa & Mount are very questionable.
Scott and Antony, no question aboot it, they have to go.

Sancho needs to go. Crap attitude, and crap player. He’s the archetype of what is wrong with modern football. Hopefully some mug parts with some decent cash for him

Cant really argue with that. It is what it is.
I’m a little mixed on Sancho, just cos we need the numbers, and on his day, he can play ball.
Just don’t know if the Prem League suits him…

Evidently not. Ultimate flatter to deceive player of little substance

Complete disappearing act from Sancho in the game, tends to do that when we need him the most. False 9 or whatever position, just doesn't do enough.

Marcus on the other hand has kicked on during pre-season, looks leaner, sharper and hungrier than ever.

👍

I thought Casemiro had turned a corner due to his performance against Betis, well, his performance against Liverpool showed, yet again, he's below par for games against pacey sides. Squad material at best, should no longer be starting games. We need Ugarte desperately!

Blooding of youngsters has been a key feature of our pre season. Collyer has shown enough promise to get games in the coming season, maybe not ready to start against the very top sides. Found wanting for the 2nd goal with a misplaced pass then a poor recovery "tackle". He'll learn from this experience, he won't have come across someone like Salah every week. Amass is also another with immense talent, needs more experience under his belt but I thought he handled Salah well in most instances which is a big compliment for the lad. Both Collyer and Amass have a big future ahead of them, let's not expect too much and also expect they'll experience bumps along the way as part of their learning curve. Whatever they give us is a bonus.

Alarmed by the injuries, Fish suffered what looked like a serious leg/ankle injury. He had only just come on. The list of casualties during the tour has shot up, so that's Yoro, Hojlund, Rashford and Antony (who was useless anyway) !

Result not what we wanted but my God the performance was worthy of raising a cherish cat smile. I loved it for most of the game, 3 nil flattered Liverpool. At one point Liverpool were lucky not to be trailing 3-1, maybe 4-1. The attacking intent, pattern of play, the way we press and counter press in numbers was a key aspect I enjoyed. The fragility bourne out of inexperience and inability of so called experienced players were reasons we conceded goals. We were also guilty of wanton profligacy, a malaise of season prior, which needs to be ironed out but the fact we penetrated Liverpool with ease with creativity and positive play generally on the front foot leaves me wanting more. Result means nothing in pre season for me.

Man Utd missing chances has been usual for Ten Hag though, hence why I was desperate for Kane. Just hoping Zirkzee turns into RVN.

I think Zirkzee may actually turn into RvP rather than RvN. Ruud was all about goals, RvP had an all round game which is what Zirkzee is about, in fact he knits play so much that he often goes missing from where we actually need him, as a number 9!
