    Nas: Come back, Sadio! They've fallen apart without you.

    Mark: Even if Liverpool turn it around in the second half, I've seen more positives from United in 45 mins than I've seen in a long time.

    It looks full here, even as fans continue to protest against the Glazer ownership.

    They lead through a very good goal. Elanga also hit the post and Eriksen was denied by a fingertip save from Alisson. Liverpool ended the half well.

    Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    Manchester United are unbeaten in their last 117 Premier League matches when leading at half-time (W100, D17) dating back to 21 September 2014 against Leicester City (L 3-5).

    Meanwhile, Liverpool have a record of W0 D2 L0 when trailing at half-time in the Premier League this season.

    A terrific half from Manchester United, who expected this??

    Jadon Sancho's goal the difference at the break.

    Fernandes tries to clear it and sort of mis-hits it off his shin. He's very lucky.

    Virgil van Djik was asking to see if the ball had hit an arm in the build up - it was right on the side of his chest, no question of a penalty for me.

    This has been a good battle but Diogo Dalot is on thin ice now after hurtling through the back of Luis Diaz and earning a booking.

    United can't get their foot on the ball at the moment, Marcus Rashford eyes a run at Virgil van Dijk but the Dutchman shuts the door in his face.

    Paul: Even more concerning as a Liverpool fan is the state of our bench. Hardly filled with game changing talent.

    Matt: If Liverpool get an equaliser I can see Man Utd heads going down and their enthusiasm evaporating.

    How did this stay out???

    James Milner's header is smashed towards his own goal by Bruno Fernandes, but it hits the chest of Lisandro Martinez on the line and United manage to scramble clear before Harvey Elliott curls wide.

    United living dangerously, can they see it out to half time?

    There's been a great intensity, end-to-end. Liverpool are finally getting a couple of passes together.

    Henderson and Milner are getting frustrated, and that's the first time we've seen Alexander-Arnold making that overlap on the right hand side, causing a problem and putting the ball across. It was well-defended by Manchester United.

    Liverpool have been nowhere near their best but you've got to give the credit to United for their energy levels. Can they keep it up?

    It's a great game with a few challenges for Michael Oliver to look at and a couple of yellow cards. There's much more to come.

  16. CLOSE!published at 40 mins

    Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    Liverpool now growing into the game and have been the better side for the last 10 minutes or so.

    Roberto Firmino pops the ball back to Mohamed Salah in the area, but the Egyptian's side is blocked by a sprawling LIsandro Martinez.

    Kevin: Amazing how running a bit more and pace up top can improve a team's performance! Hopefully a glimpse of what's to come longer term under EtH.

    Ray: Missing Thiago and Fabinho in the middle. Liverpool need some inspiration.

    Ian: Gareth Southgate take note; United looking vastly better without Maguire in the team.

    Lisandro Martinez comes across to the left to dispossess James Milner and the home fans enjoyed that one.

    Good reading of the situation from the Argentine.

    No side has ever conceded first in seven consecutive Premier League games and avoided defeat in all of them.

  20. CLOSE!published at 35 mins

    Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    The first real sweeping move from Liverpool sees Mohamed Salah find the run of Trent Alexander-Arnold.

    The cross is poked away by Raphael Varane and then Harvey Elliott's shot is blocked.
