Liverpool can expose glaring Man Utd problem and raise even bigger Ruben Amorim question Liverpool versus Manchester United is one of football’s great red-letter fixtures - but I can’t recall a bigger divide between the teams.
In fact, I look at United’s squad and I can only see a handful of players who are suited to Amorim’s philosophy - and a frightening lack of attacking options.
I could not believe the lack of mobility down the spine of that United side who lost 2-0 at home to Newcastle - and they were lucky it wasn’t a landslide in the first half.
United have already lost nine of their 19 league games this season and, in the short term, there may be more losses on the way before green shoots of recovery appear.
One experienced pundit said that, pound-for-pound spent in the transfer market, United are the worst team in the Premier League… and I have to agree.
