He's been decent since coming on. 17:47Ian DoyleAnfield ponderingsThere is a suggestion United probably won't get any better than they played in the first half, which wasn't exactly great given the amount of chances they coughed agaisnt a spluttering Liverpool attack.The Reds, though, can clearly play better than in the first half and already have shown a bit more about them.17:47Paul GorstDramatic turnIt might sound dramatic to say Liverpool have 35 minutes to turn their season around but another defeat here means the Reds have lost three quarters of their L column for last season already by mid-October if they are beaten here.
Some strong defending.Virgil van Dijk 6Inadvertently took Mac Alllister out the game early on and primarily defended on front foot.Milos Kerkez 5Not happy at times up against Amad and Cunha and one decent tackle ended up creating chance for United before break.Ryan Gravenberch 6Progressive passes in the opening quarter helped settle Liverpool and picked up some good positions but influence faded ahead of half-time.Alexis Mac Allister 6Suffered head injury missed by referee Oliver when accidentally elbowed by Van Dijk immediately before opener, but played his way into game.Mohamed Salah 6Livelier than of late, enjoyed his battle up against Shaw and created one chance for Gakpo and had header saved.Dominik Szoboszlai 7Sought to bring energy and physicality into Liverpool’s midfield and won a lot of second balls.Cody Gakpo 7Constantly hounded the United right side, hitting the post with one effort and striking the woodwork with deflected cross.Alexander Isak 5On the periphery for much of the first half, snatched at one effort and should have done better when striking leg of Lammens with another.17:20KEY EVENTHalf-timeHalf-time: Liverpool 0-1 Manchester United.A really poor half for Slot's side. Diogo Dalot also fluffed his lines when presented with a good chance from the follow up.16:52Ian DoyleNot Liverpool's day so farFair to say fortune has been favouring the visitors so far.To their credit, Liverpool have opted just to get on with it.16:51Paul GorstPost!Cody Gakpo hits the post!
