I just think we need to be pressing them
We couldn't even press Southampton, they took the piss out of our press, what chance have we got of pressing United?
Mo couldn't press a lemon on a lemon squeezer, he just runs around a bit and dollies his leg out like a fanny, it's embarrassing, Souness wouldn't have stood for it, neither would Steve McMahon. Luke Shaw will spend half an hour bombing up the left wing and he will swat Mo like an annoying fly if Mo goes anywhere near him. Trent's in for a long 90 minutes trying to defend 2 players on his own.
Maybe with 4 pressing across the front including some fresh legs, we might be able to pull it off, but a Sadio who looks like he's got long covid, a Mo who is too scared to get hurt making a block, another possible long covid sufferer in Bobby, and a Jota who did a good impression of a traffic cone against Southampton - pressing? Nah.
