    Liverpool 7-0 Man Utd

    It's all over!

    An incredible result as Liverpool rip apart Manchester United with a devastating second half display.

    Liverpool are back in the hunt for the top four in some style.

    Liverpool 7-0 Man Utd

    James Milner is doing step overs in the corner, there's oles from the home fans greeting every pass.

    An unbelievable, miserable afternoon for Manchester United.

    I can't remember in the last 20 minutes when United have done anything at all in Liverpool's half.

    They haven't had the ball.

  4. Postpublished at 90 mins

    Liverpool 7-0 Man Utd

    Three minutes of time added on.

    Three minutes for Liverpool fans and players to cherish.

    Three minutes for Manchester United fans and players to endure.

    Liverpool 7-0 Man Utd

    Trent Alexander-Arnold goes down inside the area and some Liverpool fans scream for a penalty and a chance of a ninth but replays show he was all over Luke Shaw.

    Roberto Firmino

    It's seven!

    And it is a special goal as Roberto Firmino, the Liverpool legend who is leaving at the end of the season, gets on the scoresheet.

    Mohamed Salah plays a fantastic ball into the box ad Firmino takes it initially away from goal before slotting in without looking where he is placing it.

    Bruno's head is well and truly gone. A poor example for a captain to set in trying times. Expect more

    Liverpool 6-0 Man Utd

    Marcus Rashford is off for Antony Elanga. I bet there's a few Manchester United players out there who wish they could have been taken off now.

    United just didn't turn up today. Happens to the best of them. Suck it up and move on. Liverpool look ok, will likely nick 4th.

    Mark

    Liverpool fans needed this result. Awful season. Great day.

    Dion Dublin
    Former England striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Wow. Liverpool have not taken their foot off the gas at all, they've been absolutely outstanding.

    On this occasion today, Manchester United have been completely outclassed. They haven't had an answer to any of Liverpool's questions.

  11. goal

    Mohamed Salah

    SIX!

    It is more poor defending from Manchester United as they can't clear and Roberto Firmino flicks the ball back to Mohamed Salah, who fires in from close range.

    An unbelievable performance from Liverpool today.

  12. 'United players are frustrated'published at 18:09 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March 2023

    Former England striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    There's plenty of yellow cards left in this game, United players are frustrated.

    Liverpool look so calm.

    Stefan Bajcetic skips past Bruno Fernandes on the right, prompting a huge cheer from the fans and Fernandes just stops, doesn't bother to chase his opponent. The Manchester United players are wishing the time away here.

    As a United fan, the one consolation is that getting hammered by Liverpool isn't that unusual any more. I remember the days when the entire week was ruined after a Liverpool defeat.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 78 mins

    Liverpool 5-0 Man Utd

    Liverpool make a quadruple change as Jordan Henderson, Darwin Nunez, Cody Gakpo and Fabinho make way for Stefan Bajcetic, James Milner, Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino, who gets a big cheer from the home fans.

    Manchester United also made a couple of changes a few minutes ago with Casemiro and Lisandro Martínez replaced by Tyrell Malacia and Marcel Sabitzer.

    Gakpo is a steal! Great value for money. He was under half the price Man Utd paid for Anthony. For me, one of the signings of the season.

    Andy

    All the United excuses coming out....Time to face the truth, you've been hammered!!

    Liverpool are sharp, tidy on the ball, organised and both the youngsters and seniors are doing their jobs.

    It's perfect from them.

    Darwin Nunez

    Incredible!

    Jordan Henderson does really well to keep an attack alive and then picks out Darwin Nunez with a cross and the forward heads in for his second of the game.

    Simply devastating stuff from Liverpool. They are on fire.

    These players are showing they have a lot of growth yet before they can handle it. This place is the toughest place for any Manchester United to play at.

    Marcus Rashford gets beyond Alisson but the angle is tight and he fires onto the outside of the post.

    More changes coming for Manchester United.
