After Salah's goal, Neville angrily said, "This Manchester United is absolutely wasteful! I think United looked promising at the end of last season, but their performance tonight was worrying. ”
"Those Manchester United fans who are behind the goal, a lot of them have gone. Before the game, I liked the idea of Manchester United playing five, but after watching this half, it was really bad. The Bodies of the Manchester United players are fine, but they are just walking, they are like hiking. ”
"It's a worrying game and this season, I've been watching Manchester United for 42 years and it's as bad now as when I first watched Manchester United. Hiding behind the new manager and criticizing the old manager, this excuse mentality runs through the club. ”
It's not just Neville who angrily criticised Manchester United's star, with former Manchester United captain Keane saying, "Manchester United are terrible, Liverpool have performed well on and off the pitch, showing a first-class level. Manchester United can only fight for pride, whether you are weak or not, you are fighting for Manchester United. ”
Former Liverpool defender Carragher said: "Liverpool's performance was so good and Manchester United were at a loss. At this moment, the gap between the two clubs is so large. ”

Sky Sports reporter Melissa Reddy commented, "You can dissect the first half from a data point of view, except for a corner, Manchester United did not have any form of attack. They're not playing football on the same planet, let alone in the same league. What you see on the pitch is how you operate off the pitch. ”
