Manchester United beating Liverpool at Old Trafford was such an unexpected result that it prompts several questions about what they do next. twoht
It was a performance that nobody expected on a night that had the potential to be ruinous for Manchester United.
To a considerable extent, none of this matters. You can only beat what’s put in front of you, and Manchester United achieved this comfortably, with their only moments of caution coming after Mo Salah pulled a goal back for Liverpool. Only then did the game start to look like what had been expected, with Liverpool’s forward players buzzing around putting United’s defence under pressure.Well, it certainly looked like it in this particular match.
So somewhere the top of Erik ten Hag’s ‘to-do’ list may well be what to do with Ronaldo next. Should an offer come in, do they accept it and just get rid, as may have been expected previously, or do they retain his services and continue to try to fit him into their system? Of course, the modern game is a squad game, but Scott McTominay – the obvious player to make way for Casemiro – did improve substantially upon his previous performance against Brighton and Ten Hag may well be looking at that improvement and wondering whether he can use this competition for a place to further improve a player who became a little bit of a laughing stock throughout the last few dismal months of last season.
