Man Utd’s disastrous defending shows why they are not Premier League contenders A defensive horrorshow. That feels like an apt way to sum up Manchester United’s performance as they capitulated to a 5-0 defeat at home to Liverpool.

It was a nightmare performance individually, with Maguire horribly out of position at times and beaten to crosses into the box. But he was…

Man Utd David De Gea – 5 You have to feel for the Manchester United goalkeeper, who was left badly exposed by his defence. He made a couple of good stops to keep out Firmino and Salah but could do little about the goals, with his team-mates allowing Liverpool to run riot. He can at least take satisfaction from his stunning save to stop Alexander-Arnold making it six… small crumbs of comfort! Who’d want to be in goal for United right now when the opposition are gifted so much time…
