Coach Solskjaer has turned Old Trafford into a Theatre of Disaster. |
In the history of 235 confrontations, the victory is overwhelmingly in favor of MU (89 wins, 68 draws, 78 losses) and this is the time when coach Jurgen Klopp is showing a remarkable change. In fact, coach Solskjaer has hurt hundreds of millions of MU fans around the world when he only held on for exactly 5 minutes, to open a shocking 5-0 defeat. After 45 minutes, unable to bear the torture of the away team's players, especially Salah, many MU fans left the Old Trafford stands in anger..
Still using the familiar 4-2-3-1 formation, the approach of Bruno, Ronaldo and the MU players had problems. They were caught by coach Jurgen Klopp by blocking and dividing the MU squad into 2 parts, making all 3 midfielders Rashford, Bruno, Greenwood hungry for the ball and Ronaldo became alone in the attack.
All professional indicators of MU were at a disadvantage, only holding the ball 37% of the time, only having 4 shots (Liverpool had 8). Only the number of 6 yellow cards, 1 red card of Pgoba of the home team MU was outstanding, a complete defeat in the style of "convinced". Pgoba entered the field at the beginning of the second half and had to leave the field early due to violent play, Ronaldo also showed anger in retaliation against the opponent to receive a card. The average score of MU players was only 6.25, far lower than the away team's 7.59. Mc Tominay, MU's best player, was only rated 7.1, far lower than Salah who was rated 9.8 and was the best player of the match.

Solskjaer was really out of ideas, changing all 3 midfielders, switching to a 4-4-2 formation, but only conceding 1 more goal in a man-less situation was because coach Jurgen Klopp asked the players to hold their breath after winning 5-0. The Norwegian coach helped the away team set a series of records, Salah was the first player in the Premier League to score a hat-trick at Old Trafford.
In the Premier League, MU's biggest defeat against this "great rival" came in 1990 with a score of 0-4 but on away field. Throughout history, Liverpool's biggest win against MU took place 105 years ago. At that time, the Anfield team defeated MU with a score of 7-1 at home on April 22, 1916 (in the Southern Division tournament, not yet divided into divisions as it is now).
This is the first time MU has been 4 goals behind in the first half in Premier League history, a loss in which the losing team wanted to end the game early. Liverpool are the first team in Premier League history to score 4 or more goals in 2 consecutive matches against MU at Old Trafford (last season Liverpool beat MU 4-2 in the second leg).
Seeing Liverpool easily win 5-0, many Premier League clubs wish to meet MU at Old Trafford. People are worried that if MU replaces coach Solskjaer, they will lose the opportunity to have 3 points in hand. Not only in this match, but on all fronts, MU under the hand of coach Solskjaer lacks stability and has a pale identity.
In an interview after the match, coach Solskjaer still insisted on not resigning, which made his opponents secretly happy and his fans disappointed. Insiders said that coach Solskjaer's fate is only a matter of days because after the humiliating defeat, the patience of the Old Trafford owners has reached its limit.
