We didn’t pick Harry because also we want agility and mobility in the back four. Further in the back four, we play with Dalot and Malacity, with speed and mobility."

Les Red Devils ont choisi le moment idéal pour récolter leur première victoire de la saison, alors qu'ils ont eu le dessus 2 à 1 sur Liverpool, lundi.
Cette situation devrait toutefois bientôt se régler, alors que les attaquants Darwin Nunez (suspension) et Diogo Jota (blessure à la cuisse) assureront la relance du club à leur retour. Ils sont tout juste au dessus de la ligne de relégation, au 16e rang, en vertu de deux points obtenus via des nuls. Ils n'ont toujours pas goûté à la victoire en trois affrontements, et ont même encaissé le premier but dans chacun des duels.

Liverpool pulled a goal back late on, as De Gea parried sub Fabio Carvalho’s effort into the path of Mo Salah who squeezed in a header to set the game up for a nervy finish. The England international kept his calm going one-v-one against Alisson to bury the ball into the back of the net. Despite relentless attacking from the opposition, United’s backline - especially Raphael Varane and Martinez - combined well to keep them at bay. Despite being faced with multiple defenders, Sancho showed great composure to deceive James Milner and finish beyond Alisson to fire the reds ahead.

Erik ten Hag said Cristiano Ronaldo still has a future under him at Manchester United despite dropping the striker for the victory over Liverpool.
[Southampton](/soccer/team?id=376) on Saturday. We need a squad because we have many games to cover so we make a team out of the squad, we stick together as a squad and we achieve a lot. We have more players who have already won trophies in their career. "His age is not an issue. "I think he can," said the United manager, who brought Ronaldo on as a substitute in the 86th minute. "The whole of his career under several managers he did, several styles and systems.
Cheers for the new signing before victory over Liverpool were drowned out by chants of 'We want Glazers out'
Fernandes was prominent throughout, looking to release Marcus Rashford behind an uncertain Liverpool defence at the earliest opportunity and revelling in the space between Klopp’s midfield and central defence. Liverpool could have over-ran United’s central midfield of Eriksen and Scott McTominay with an extra man and Roberto Firmino regularly dropping into the hole between them. At least Casemiro will have been encouraged by the intensity and flashes of quality that underpinned his new club’s win over Jürgen Klopp’s side. United have committed to spend an eye-watering total of £142.8m on the 30-year-old — a fee rising to £70m plus a four-year contract worth £350,000-a-week — and the sums involved in luring the midfielder from a glittering nine-year career at the Bernabeu signal the desperation at Old Trafford. Their merited victory rounded off a hectic and head-spinning day for Casemiro who, having bid a tearful farewell to Real Madrid in the morning, arrived at Old Trafford several hours before kick off to take in his new environment. United’s first win of the season at least dragged attention back to where it should always be.

We can't keep this going on out there: it is easy to talk about it in the changing room but we have to go out and do it. Nunez showed great promise prior to his red card against [Crystal Palace](/soccer/team?id=384) and the injury picture will ease before long, but two points from their opening three games will heighten pressure on Liverpool to enter the market before deadline day -- perhaps most obviously in midfield, where they were out-fought and out-thought by United.

Jamie Carragher has described Liverpool's performance in their 2-1 defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford as "embarrassing" and "shocking".
"That can't be a one-off. I didn't think Manchester United were capable. I don't know what it is but I cannot believe what I have witnessed. "I don't know what's happened this week on the training ground, but they've responded. "The fight, spirit and energy from Manchester United was brilliant. "Liverpool were absolutely shocking defensively.

"We need to pick up our performances individually and collectively." Now, you see we bring the attitude," Ten Hag said afterwards, according to the Guardian. "We are in a tricky situation, injury-wise, we got through the week with 14, 15 senior players available and now have to make sure they don't get injured. Because they can f**king play good football." "We give every team a goal start," said Liverpool full-back Andy Robertson, according to the BBC. "We can't give ourselves an uphill battle.
Ahead of the Liverpool game, Erik ten Hag was keen to put tactics to one side and talk about his Manchester United team delivering “the basic stuff”.
The Old Trafford crowd can accept losing, but it cannot accept a lack of effort and desire. But what they don’t spell out is the passion and bite behind those numbers. It was the manner in which United went about the evening's business that really seemed to rouse the raucous crowd. As Liverpool sought an unlikely route back into the game during the closing stages, we understandably dropped deeper and ceded possession. The Reds played some great stuff on the ball, but what seemed to most please a vociferous Old Trafford crowd was the simple aggression and graft on show. What did he mean?
Raphael Varane has said Manchester United new signing Casemiro has backed his former Real Madrid teammate to be a success at Old Trafford.
"It's difficult to explain why but we didn't start the games with the same intensity, with the same fighting spirit," Varane added. "It's a similar process that I had so obviously I wish him the best and I'm speaking with him a lot, but he didn't need me to make his choice." "He needs a new challenge, I know exactly what he feels, and I know exactly why he chose this club.

A weakness in Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool squad that was signposted before the season began was ruthlessly exposed by Manchester United at Old Trafford.
This failure to bolster the centre of the park, as well as a number of summer departures from Anfield, has ultimately led to a sense that the squad that has started this season is weaker than the one that finished the last. Of course, even if that is indeed the case, it feels like an oversight not to do more to bring in one of the two midfielders this team already needs in order to get their adaptation process underway. And most frustratingly of all, the shortfall in terms of both availability and quality in that area of the pitch that led to this state of affairs had been foreseen by the majority of supporters before a ball was kicked this season.
Elanga, who replaced Cristiano Ronaldo in the starting eleven, looked like a player possessed, constantly pressing Alexander-Arnold.
Elanga, who replaced Cristiano Ronaldo in the starting eleven, looked like a player possessed, constantly pressing Alexander-Arnold, who looked out of sorts, and winning the duels. Six minutes later, he turned provider to the Jadon Sancho opener. Now you see we bring the attitude. That United had not scored a goal off their own in nearly 190 minutes—the one against Brighton was an own goal—aptly reflected the toothlessness of their front-line. The full-backs—Tyrell Malacia, who had displaced the lacklustre Luke Shaw, and Diogo Dalot—too were exceptional in curbing the menace of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson. But the performance against Liverpool was as resolute a rearguard they had produced in recent times. A technically gifted centre-back, he contributed to the opening goal too, stealing the ball off Bobby Firmino and belting it upfield, besides his cool tackling and composure in duress. Often, Sancho has looked ponderous—this goal could change it. They lacked ingenuity, physicality and presence of mind. Once Casemiro takes McTominay’s place, Eriksen could be all the more influential a presence. So much so that they were a team unrecognisable from the shambles they were against Brentford last week. Manchester United were a team transformed against Liverpool.
Erik ten Hag has caught up with an old friend who was at Carrington on Tuesday afternoon.
Former colleague Schmeichel was in the directors' box and Peter's fellow Dane Michael Laudrup, who played for both Barcelona and Real Madrid, was working for the overseas media. He played in some big games for the club, including the 1997 Champions League semi-final with Borussia Dortmund, 3-2 defeat to Real Madrid in the same competition in 2000 and the 1999 UEFA Super Cup final with Lazio. Van der Gouw represented the Reds between 1996 and 2002, after arriving from Vitesse Arnhem to be Peter Schmeichel's deputy.
