Terrible game so far, but United have to be very happy, Liverpool haven't threatened much at all.

Yeah...its not been great.

They've dug their trench and I think their plan is to lull Alisson to sleep and then attack.

Well we created 100 shots but just couldn’t find that moment of quality.

What a ridiculous way for the ref to end the game.

Had a feeling United would get something from this match.
Refs are losing their minds these days though; always making things about themselves.

The ref did fine all game too, just couldn’t quite stay out of his own way for the full 90.

Michael Oliver always needs his 15 seconds of attention. Especially funny to send off Dalot there after Darwin was allowed to applaud his own booking in the first half.

not a pretty performance by any means, but I'll happily take the point. Really like Kobbie Mainoo.

Nunez is pretty bad, they need to give Gakpo a fair run out.

Nunez creates a lot of chances, he’ll be given a lot of time to figure out the finishing part because of that.

I guess Forest is firing (or has fired) Steve Cooper and they went with Nuno Espírito Santo. No clue what they’re thinking because he’s not going to solve their goal scoring woes.

Not that Steve Cooper was great but if they are getting Nuno I feel bad for Forest fans.

His style of play is very conservative and tough to watch at times but I think Cooper was great for them, Forest fans are heartbroken. They were close to relegation in the Championship after 23 years stuck down there when he took over and brought them up and he kept them up.

Had to work with one of those egocentric owners like Foley at Bournemouth who thinks they know better than everybody and had a transfer policy that was frankly, comical, last summer buying players scattershot that he then needed to integrate and try to rotate through. When you look at their 11 despite spending insane amounts of money they still have a championship level backline and have been building from the front backwards.

They are completely hamstrung as far as FFP rules now because of how much they've spent and I think Nuno will struggle there within the next couple seasons.

Nuno's beard, while gloriously impressive, has a more distinguished record than Nuno himself...
