First and foremost that was an abysmal game all around. Stop start all the way through.
We most definitely have dropped two points here instead of gaining one, today i was most disappointed with the subs Klopp made, I understand the Sturridge for Firmino sub, although i would have preferred Shaqiri to come on. But for the life of me i cannot workout why Naby Keita didn't come on in the game, it was crying out for someone in our midfield to attack them, that just isn't going to happen with a midfield three of Gini, Hendo and Fabinho.
I understand we don't want to lose but the timing of the subs and the subs themselves for me spoke volumes about how Klopp may have feared united more than he should have. Once Rashford was injured it should have been a matter of when rather in if TAA would come on, Milner just doesn't offer enough down that right hand side IMO, i know his the ideal professional etc. but for what we need for our front three he is not it.
We are still one point ahead and it is still in our hands but we really need to click back into form, really hope the injury to Bobby isn't too substantial but if it is id like to see Salah down the middle with Shaqiri out on the right.
Also, shout out to Alisson, didn't have much to do but when called upon was alert to the danger.
Come on redmen we can do this!
