    Steady Jurgen, go too hard and Utd may end up with a competent manager....

    Defensive rankings for United this season:

    Clean sheets - 18th

    Tackles per game - 20th

    Errors leading to shots - 20th

    That is awful.

    If Man Utd lose this heavily, the egos in that dressing room will cause fall outs and their season is over. Ole needs to go, a stronger manager is required.

    Liverpool in complete control and once again Manchester United were a total shambles at the back. Breakdown in communications between Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw summed up the defending so far.

    Old Trafford is stunned - although one corner of the stadium is in noisy, joyous celebration.

    It's all gone Liverpool's way so far but the Reds have a concern with the injury-prone Naby Keita down on the deck and needing attention to his right shin.

    What are they doing at the back??

    It's crazy defending from Harry Maguire, passing it straight to Naby Keita on the edge of his own box but the Liverpool midfielder cannot get a shot away.

    Nine games into the season and United are already eight points adrift of Premier League leaders Chelsea.

    Who on earth is coaching United's defence? They're all over the place.

    United have a rare attacking opportunity.

    Harry Maguire nods of Bruno Fernandes corner but Scott McTominay cannot keep his shot down from the angle, slicing over with his weaker left peg.

    Honestly Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw, they are so dependable for England, but when the jitters come in football, and it has for Manchester United, that happens.

    Sorry to say but this is damage limitation for United already.

    All over the place at the back and Liverpool could have had three or four.

    Liverpool deserve that. They have been at it today.

    I can see Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on my screen in front of me shouting at his players. Liverpool have been sharper and there have been runs forward when the midfield players have it.

    Trent Alexander-Arnold could take his pick.

    SalfordBazza: The key to playing against Liverpool is discipline. Stay in the passing lane, don't rush out of position......so 4 mins in and Lindelof & Maguire go sprinting forward pressing 40yds out on the touchline, leaving Luke Shaw 3 on 1.

    GOAL - Man Utd 0-2 Liverpoolpublished at 13 mins

    Diogo Jota

    Two in the first 13 minutes for Liverpool, this could get ugly!

    It's United's own undoing again in defence, Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw get in each other's way and Naby Keita picks up the loose ball on the edge of the box.

    He rolls it wide for Trent Alexander-Arnold free down the right and he has an easy pass for Diogo Jota to slide a finish into a open net.

    Manchester United have now conceded in their last 13 home games. Their last clean sheet at Old Trafford was in April.

    Bruno Fernandes is dropping all the way back to the left-back position to get on the ball.

    A bit of frustration creeping in for United.

    PM: Man Utd back four porous as chicken wire.

    Aditya: Someone still want to defend maguire?!!!

    Andrew: What is Luke Shaw doing? Miles deeper than the rest of the defence, playing Liverpool onside. Far too narrow, leaving room for Keita to stroll in unopposed. Liverpool don’t need gifts like that

    United looking to restore parity pretty much straight away.

    Marcus Rashford shrugs off a tug from Jordan Henderson but then cannot work Alisson with his shot from 25 yards out.

    Manchester United had that chance through Bruno Fernandes but the big worry is Liverpool have cut them wide open twice and far too easily.

    Thunderous start with openings for both sides.
