Transcripts
hello every welcome to the United stands
I'm Mark goldbridge Manchester United 2
Liverpool 2 in what can only be
described in one word as madness madness
and look we've had words to describe
Manchester United this season and some
of them are x-rated but that's just pure
Madness I
mean I can say it now the final whistle
is gone we should have beat Chelsea we
lost we probably should have lost to
Liverpool and we should have won and we
nearly did and then our own Madness I
mean it's just it's just Man United at
the moment are are an exhausting watch
that's the bottom line isn't it we're
absolutely exhausting I mean
Liverpool I I I never thought Liverpool
would be able to come to Old Trafford
and repete the same mistake as they did
in the FA Cup where they have so much of
the ball and it's just about composure
and they miss a hatful of chances again
and we ended up with a point and knocked
them out the cup as well um but look I
think at the end of the day Gary Neville
said something on sky today which I
thought was absolutely disgusting and he
really should just come out and say ten
hog out because to say before a game of
this magnitude that um he doesn't buy it
that injuries are a reason for United's
failure this season we've got 60
injuries that's the ridiculous amount of
Center back combinations we've had this
season we've got no left back we've
conceded two late penalties at left back
because we haven't got a left back um
the mid we haven't got a holding
midfielder casmiro is already in Saudi
Arabia and you know whatever you think
whatever you say about it injuries are
clearly and Squad depth are clearly
massive that's a very good Liverpool
team and somehow we've managed to get a
draw I'm I'm I'm sort of confused how
because casemiro has just put in the
worst performance I've ever seen in his
career apart from the goal Bruno was
very good rashford wasn't very good
Rasmus wasn't very good because there
was no service Wanaka wasn't good so
five of half of our team played badly
and we've still got a 2-2 draw against
Liverpool and in fact we should have
beat them because ju Baka I mean I'm
just looking at it now absolutely
doesn't need to do it doesn't need to do
it just doesn't need to do it doesn't
get the watching it
now why are you doing this in the
Penalty Box
it's just it's ridiculous it's
absolutely ridiculous um Gary Neville
was against man united the whole time in
commentary as well they deserve to lose
playing like this I was disgusted and
lost my respects as Levi I mean man
united Legend speaks a lot of sense but
for some reason doesn't like man united
uh clearly doesn't like ten hog probably
wanted us to lose so he could you know
further that I'd expect better from Gary
because I always criticize Man United
fans who want us to lose for their own
benefit and I think it's disgusting I
thought CA was man of the match I
thought Maguire played well and I
thought gacho uh Delo and Mayu did okay
the rest of them I thought were poor um
even Anana was okay um I thought he
should have done better than that but we
should have won it we should have won it
um but look Tam says Mark checked the
penalty the first kick didn't connect
mate come on we've got far better
ammunition to moan about B are and
penalties than that he that that's Ned
Stark at left back his head's gone his
head has gone waka's head has left his
body Ned Stark mate
because he's gone to ground on a slide
tackle in the box and not got the ball
whether it's soft whether the contact
doesn't happen till the second tackle
how anybody can say that's not a penalty
I do not know you can't go to ground
like that not get the ball and then not
expect penalty it was it was stupid it
was a stupid tackle and I'm not
defending it I thought the the low one
wasn't a penalty but Waka I mean where
is Harvey Elliot he's on the edge of the
Box he's got Maguire another midfielder
and Juan basaka goes sliding in in the
Box it's incredibly stupid it's
incredibly stupid um 100% a penalty for
me because it's 100% stupid and if you
you take a risk like that it ends up
with a penalty we're going to do player
ratings in a minute but
look that game was Madness wasn't it
talk to me
um you know massive positive massive
birthday present one nil at one point
for Man United I'd have took that before
the game I thought we would lose um I'd
have took that before the game I'll take
it now um I don't think we played
particularly well um I thought we
started the game for the first 20
minutes well they scored senior players
has dropped their heads um
irresponsibility you know
laziness uh carelessness lack of
concentration um and there's only going
to be one winner in that game and then K
Quanza plays that pass to Bruno who
finishes it very very well and suddenly
the heads go up again and if I'm inos
and I'm watching these games and if I'll
tell you that not many people will be
saying this tonight sjim Radcliff is St
there watching that game are you a
follower of Manchester United because
it's you know I'm from Manchester
support Manchester United or are you a
fan of Manchester United because if
you're a fan of Manchester United that
means you've got an opinion on the way
that we play football and if you've got
an opinion on the way that we play
football you will assess those players
in the way that the vast majority of you
are if he's watching that game he'll
have seen what we've all seen for years
there are certain players in that team
that just don't fancy it they'll turn it
on and off and we saw it when Liverpool
went one nil up they didn't fancy it
they didn't fancy it at the start of the
second half Liverpool came out had a
couple of chances Liverpool make a
mistake it goes to 1-1 the crowd go up
and they go oh yeah I fancy it a bit now
they they're not coming back from one-
nil down unless Liverpool make a mistake
because there's some players in that
team that need to go I'm looking at that
game today and I'm like it's Liverpool
against Man United at Old Trafford if
Liverpool win the league it's 20 times
the same as us we can stop them winning
the league and more importantly we're
playing Liverpool we should be trying to
beat them anyway and I look around the
team and I go you know know what
obviously Maguire needs to go he's not
he's getting on a bit he's not the right
type of Defender for us but he played
well he's a senior player casmiro senior
player rubbish Bruno Fernandez senior
player not good enough Marcus rashford
senior player not good enough and you
know we're relying on Mayu at 18 gacho
at 19 you know the balance of that team
and we're paying a lot of money for
those senior Pros so if I'm sigin
Radcliffe you can you can keep having
the conversation about the manager
because that's what the simpletons do
that's what the media do but the the
actual um the actual um playing staff
has got to drastically change and you
know what people will be saying ten hog
out you've got Mayu who's come through
under him you've got Gano who's come
through under him you've now got Cala
who's come through under him you got
Rasmus who he's bought you got four
young players that are brilliant for our
future I mean I mean how many other
teams can say that like one of the big
positives is we've got three players
from our youth that are going to be part
of our future we've got a young striker
I mean there's a future here if we can
eradicate the past if we can move on
casemiro and Bruno and rashford at some
point over the next two to three years
and bring three young players in um I
think we've got something good there I
really do but this season is a write off
it's a weird season it's chuckle Vision
to me to you to me to you I mean I give
ten haris credit I personally think we
should have just sat back and counted
Liverpool but we we went open again and
the amount of times we got broken on
because they're better than us was was
incredible and somehow we ended up with
a point so um big dent in Liverpool's
title hopes uh says would you rather
Happy Days um don't forget how our under
18s are doing as well says Mario Franco
um happy birthday Mark hope you got
spoiled mate well I think a bit spoiled
with man united not getting beat I mean
that's a big win for me and they say
Ronaldo was the problem the players need
to go before the manager says Tariq Mayu
gacho Hing of the future some credit to
Anthony played better than ever says
blue Neville is on S Jim's Radcliffe's
payroll to sack 10 Hogs say Mr Rising
Apple it's weird Behavior it's weird
behavior on the day of a Liverpool game
to be coming out with some of the stuff
he's come out with but I don't know uh
with all the noise on how bad we've been
this season you'd think we were 15th or
16th sixth is not good enough but under
the circum circumstances injuries owners
drama it's impressive Eric tenin says no
Kazmir and Bono Bruno both stink
casemiro can't pass oh mate that that
casemiro performance is the worst easily
uh the moment that penalty i' PSD of
Chelsea Sumi says happy birthday mate
Neville is a mediocre player playing in
a great team hence he won things he's
he's a cfu wannabe says Reeves welcome
to members Club Sully check the penalty
the first kick didn't connect it's a
penalty for me Tam um and an aror man of
the match says Reef casmiro cost is the
game we need to find a replacement for
him next season says bu yeah I mean what
I will say is um I said it in the watch
along some of you might not have watched
that for me casmiro has got to go now um
he is nowhere near the level required
like he's got no mobility and therefore
he's got to go um he's just got to go he
can't pay 300 Grand a week for that and
I don't think his heads there either um
I mean I don't see how amrabat could do
any worse I really don't see how amrabat
could do any worse and I know amrabat is
not going to stay either but I don't see
how he could do any worse um and and you
know what good point on ten hog I think
that if you think about United two years
ago under ranik it was very similar to
now just players who were playing for
the summer and that they're checking out
um ranik took that t sorry ten hog took
that United Team over the worst ever
Premier League man united side yeah he
bought kazmo and and Martinez and
Anthony um and he got Mountain andana
last year but he he's hardly built he's
not built a whole team has he he's still
got a lot of players that were here
under ranik um and they're still capable
of doing that so when I look at ten hog
and I look at last season and look at
third place and a carabal cup win and an
FA Cup Final I think he overachieved in
season one and when I look at this
season I see as in Sixth and potentially
in an FA Cup Final I think he's probably
overachieved again um
I think the truth hurts
people the truth is we're
we are we were when ranet
was here and we're still now we we
we some of our fans and the media have a
ridiculously overhyped opinion of man
united we are we are really
and because we came third and won the
carar cup people think we should be in
the top four and winning the Champions
League like we we're we are really
and
somehow we're still sick we shouldn't be
SI West Ham are better than us this
season I'd say Newcastle have played
better football than us Newcastle wi
they're ass with us at St james' Park we
have been persistently this season
um and I think a lot of that's down to
injuries certain players that need
clearing out so if we can get sixth
place in an FA Cup Final I'd be very
very content with with that because I
think the truth is a lot is a lot worse
we should be about ninth and we
shouldn't be anywhere near an FA Cup
Final so I do think there is an element
of that
um casmiro will be at Kings Cross
station tomorrow replacing the Turnstyle
says Pang rashford score he gets a seven
Bruno scores he gets a five uh says
Esther banan the roller coaster of
emotions we have to clear out rashford
out the whole Manchester United have to
do a clean out says Ruben um is Maguire
starting to show we bought him in the
first place thought he played well says
Ash Maguire played well I mean I like
the way we're sort of freestyling around
here um Maguire played well but he's
still needs to go because Maguire can
only play on the edge of his box he
can't play on the halfway line so if you
if we want to play on the halfway line
Maguire's got to go which is why ten hog
tried to sell him last year he played
really really well today but you know on
the edge of the box it that's not how we
want to play uh you're not yeah another
game ruined by poor management and Subs
where's the leadership on and off the
pitch says Mr Glenn Johnson uh Mike
thank you very much for joining the
members Club why why was the game ruined
by
substitutions um the game was ruined by
a Ed Stark headless tackle in The
Penalty Box that cost us a win um Bruno
Fernandez is never going to get
substituted that's a conversation in
itself he'll never get subbed because
he's the captain I don't know so that's
never going to happen um Gano um Anthony
came on for rashford because he was
injured amrabat came on for gacho to
give us some bodies in the Midfield and
I think Mount came on for Mayu so
Bruno's never getting subbed so um yeah
I don't know about that um Sam Bryant
says it was a dive I don't think you
understand football mate I'm sorry I
mean look I would love it not to be a
penalty but it's idiotic it's absolutely
how anybody can defend Juan basaka on
that is madness absolutely madness he
it's the most stupid stupid thing you
could ever do it's a penalty I don't
care whether it's soft or not he's slide
tackling in the box and he doesn't get
the
ball it's never going to get overturned
it's never going to get overturned I've
seen the clip I've seen the clip he
catches him on the on the on the back
leg he doesn't catch him with the front
leg he catches him on the back leg about
a second later but hey hello welcome to
the world of football it's a foul if you
make contact with the player you don't
have to do it with your first leg he
does it with the back leg it's a penalty
and he should never do it and if you
think it's not a penalty fine it was
given it's 22 and I tell you what I tell
you what's not a penalty I tell you
what's not a penalty not slide tackling
in the box and not getting the ball so
it was Reckless it was stupid and you
run the risk of a penalty when you do
that so if you're saying it's never a
penalty or it's not a penalty have a
word with Waka and say please don't
slide tackle in the Box again because
that's not a penalty if he stays on his
feet it's not a penalty it was stupid
and uh but I'll take a point I'll take a
point I'm not I don't I think if we'd
won it I'd have still sat here and gone
how have we won that um a little bit
like brenford last week if we'd won it
I'd have sat there and said how have we
won that so I think a point is about
what we deserved but we definitely
didn't deserve to lose to Chelsea uh
it's hard to do pin this on ten hog with
these diabolical players same ones Jose
said his best achievement was second I
can't speak says D are you entertained
ten Harin says Kyle I sort of am
entertained you know I think it is
entertaining to watch United it's better
than watching us part the bus for a draw
but it's hard it's stressful Liverpool's
last season was worse than United this
season yet everyone understood it was
because of injury and Liverpool will be
back says Edgar um I can't understand
the number of times Salah was left open
in the second half Waka didn't put him
in his pocket like last time Mark say
arent I think Waka had a bad game I
don't think he I don't think he he play
he had a bad game against brenford I
mean it's hard to play at left back when
you're a right back it's a shame we
didn't win against Chelsea brenford and
Fulham we'd have been in the race for
top four says Quinn we don't deserve top
four it'd be nice to be in it but we
don't deserve to be in it best thing
casmiro done was the tackle at the end
Maguire and CA played well very well
says Luke I agree with that um Maguire
and camba were absolutely superb dealing
with every Liverpool attack and United's
Midfield constantly giving it away
Maguire man of the match as Red Army um
Nick J uh thank you member 15 months uh
I'm going to do the player ratings uh
please get involved with that make sure
you smash a like on the video of course
we've got the fan forum coming up for
you straight after this as well I mean
it's been a it's been a roller coaster
week man united have taken two points
from nine um which always annoys me
because when you take two points from
nine you're better off losing two and
winning one which always bothers me
mentally because obviously you don't
want to lose games but you know actually
we'd have more points if we'd won one
and lost two but I think at the end of
the day um Eric ten hog out gained meon
due to the many losses which just
enraged fans on lost match days if some
of those were draws it would not be such
a situation says Nish uh thank you very
much for that genders welcome to the
members Club okay let's go through the
player ratings uh join in you can do
that through the link in the description
uh please do subscribe as well bottom
right hand corner so I'd probably give
an aror a 6.5 today which is what most
of you have given
um what I will say is he he should save
the first goal he's got a full hand on
it he should save the first goal any
goalkeeper would tell you that but he
made I mean look he made he made a very
good save in the first couple of minutes
from Sabai very very good save um and he
had to make a few other good saves so I
think a 6.5 is about right for Anana it
was definitely you
know it definitely wasn't a bad
performance so I wouldn't agree with
that uh Delo I'd probably give him a six
today I thought he was um yeah I thought
Delo um didn't really put a foot wrong
um didn't get to see him going forward
much but it's against Liverpool but uh
obviously Diaz gave him a few problems
um but I don't think it was a bad
performance by Delow and I think he's
one of our most consistent players this
season so I would give him a six uh some
people aren't happy with a 6.5 for aana
I mean what what do you want me to give
him then like nine eight
uh I think he should have saved the
first goal and then I think he made some
good saves so I would give him an above
average um Connor says basaka is a
reactive not proactive Defender well
this is why I want to sell him I'd never
wish for a player to be hurt but it
could be a blessing to allow ammad and
Anthony a run of games because uh it's
obvious rashford doesn't want to put in
the work says Eddie I don't know what
happened to rashford if anybody knows
what it was injury-wise um I'd love to
know uh Maguire I'd probably give him a
7.5 today 6.5 from you no I thought I I
don't think Maguire put a foot wrong um
you know Maguire's performance today
would be akin to a good performance from
Bruno where he got two assists I think
that's the sort of performance Maguire
put into today I thought he I thought he
played very very well
um I mean look I'm not going to run away
with it and say we should keep him I
think he needs to go I think he's the
wrong type of Center back for what we
want to play but as a roll up your
sleeves old-fashioned Center back
performance I thought it I thought it
was very good I did genuinely thought it
was very good uh ca for me was an eight
uh and he was my man of the match I
thought the difference between CA and
Maguire is Maguire played very very well
um and I can't fault it but Cala is a
modern Center back and Maguire is not
that so I I give it ca because he's got
the recovery Pace um he's got that
aggression he's got that speed and he's
he's only young and I think it's
incredible to throw a player like that
into a game like that against an attack
like that and I thought he played
fantastic I thought he's very unlucky to
get a yellow card I mean it was studs up
but he gets the ball fully gets the ball
he commits he gets the ball and it's the
only way he can win the ball and that's
why I don't like refereeing because he's
got to what what they don't understand
there is they just see he's got his
studs up but
it's the only way you can win that ball
and you have to go and win it you can't
keep your foot down so I I think it I
don't I think he was unlucky with the Y
card but I I it's interesting isn't it
we want TBO we want branth weight maybe
we can get tobo maybe we can get bran W
where we can maybe we can keep Martinez
and when we've got camboa maybe you can
let veran Lindelof and Maguire go maybe
we can let Varan go because if camba is
going to be good and we buy two center
backs maybe you can let Varan go and you
can save that 300K a week because he
looks really interesting really
interesting look it could go it could go
one of two ways it could be
that he's just played his best game ever
and he ends up signing for Preston in
two years or it could be this is the
start of many games like Mayu I thought
he played very very very well and I
would give him man of the match uh
waka's got to be a five for me I mean
it's it's just Ned Stark isn't it head's
gone
ridiculous um just I don't think he had
a very good game anyway I probably would
have given him a 5.5 but I think the
penalty takes it down to a five he's not
a left back he's not a left back that's
that's the problem it's not a he's not a
left back uh mark it wasn't a penalty
Waka didn't make contact and Elliot dive
there's a video we've been robbed again
says Manchild um I disagree mate I'm
sorry if if you want to if you want to
go chasing that I don't really know what
you're chasing because we didn't deserve
to win it it would have been it was a
smash and grab it would have been nice
to get it but Liverpool absolutely
dominated as to start moaning about a
penalty when a fullback goes sliding
down on the ground in a penalty box I I
I thought it was a penalty I've looked
at it back and it is minimal contct but
the the problem is I suppose what we're
talking about here is like you're
looking at it and saying it's not a
penalty in your mind and I get that I
don't bother doing that anymore I watch
what the referee gives and then I think
we V overturn it when Anthony Taylor
gives it as a penalty it's a penalty V
will not overturn it because they'll
look at it and go might be a little bit
soft but we're going to stick with the
referee look at the Delow one that's not
a penalty and V didn't overturn it so
I'm not I'm not going to lose any mo I'm
not going to lose any time on it Anthony
Taylor gave it V won't overturn it it's
a penalty it's gone in it's over it's 22
I ain't going to spend any time letting
it ruin my birthday or evening it was
stupid why by Waka if he didn't he
didn't need to slide tackle if he hadn't
slide tackled it wouldn't be a penalty
anyway uh kaziro dropped in the
stinkiest performance I've ever seen in
his career absolute shite um rubbish I
don't really understand it I've always
been a massive fan of casemiro I do not
get how bad he is at the moment um it
was it was absolute and I I like the
player you know I don't do agenda so
casmiro is my player of the year last
year I thought he was absolutely rubbish
against Chelsea and he was even worse
today he can't pass he jogs
um yeah I I don't know I actually think
he's so bad at the moment if he' had
been sent off it might have done as a
favor against Bournemouth because I
actually think we'll be better off with
momany or amrabat at holding midfielder
and I never thought I'd say those words
but he is so bad at the moment I don't
know what maybe he's playing with an
injury you know maybe he can't I don't
know there's something just not right
there he might be playing injured he
might be playing injured I don't know um
but yeah you've got to call it for what
it was it was bad uh 6.5 for me from
Mayu um nice to see you lot giving him a
seven I think he struggled you know he
was at fault for the first goal um I
think he really struggled in that
Midfield today it was hard but the the
mentality is great and the goal was
brilliant the goal was absolutely
brilliant being behind that with the TV
camera and seeing the curl on it it was
amazing and uh you know that gave us the
breathing space to um get that point uh
Mojo thank you very much um uh says this
summer Kazmir McGuire veran Juan basaka
pelist Sancho martial Brandon Williams
Evans need to go thank you very much um
happy birthday says Stefan thank you
very much for that Mojo's gifted some
memberships as well give him a big shout
out um we've had an Arsenal fan here
saying that was a tough watch but Mayu
is a top talent shopa Tom uh he's lost
his legs casmiro says sahil uh what in
your honest opinion do you think
happened at halftime after that
dominance from Liverpool I surprised the
players fought for the manager says Vlad
mate I honestly honest opinion I don't
think we came out in the second half I
thought we were for the first 10
minutes I thought Liverpool were all
over us again I thought the end of the
first half and the start of the second
half were the same what happened is K
Quanza Mis place to pass Bruno scored
and we lifted our heads we didn't lift
our heads because of the halftime chat
it was the circumstances on the pitch
which is why I'll credit the players on
the draw and I would have credit I
haveed at the players for the loss it's
just they're not that they're hard to
they're hard to tactically teach
anything because they're light switch
players who turn on and off current
rules mean that if there is any contact
whatsoever then v v can't get involved
in penalties that are given by the
referee soft or not says Sam well there
you go there was some contact so there
we go how are people saying that's a
penalty Elliot initiates initiates the
contact Baka completely misses him um
Ash anch can we just grow up a little
bit
here they're in the box and Aaron wanasa
slide tackles doesn't get the ball and
you're saying that Harvey Elliot
initiates the contact there's a man
united defender in The Penalty Box
sliding and not getting the
ball that's your problem whether you
think it's soft or not stop stop
deflecting the blame no man united
Defender should be slide tackling in the
box when there's no need to do it that's
caused the problem whether it's contact
no contact minimal contact whether
Harvey Elliots took the contact he
shouldn't be SL SL tackling in the Box
it's as simple as that if he doesn't
slide tackle we're not even having the
conversation so I don't know I can't
understand why nobody is just
registering in their brain what the
is he doing slide tackling in the box if
he doesn't do that we're not even having
the conversation it's it's it's stupid
it's stupid what he did uh Bruno to me
was a five um you can give him a six for
the goal and the goal was very good but
yeah nothing changes for me with Bruno
it's the amount of M time ples
um I thought I thought first half he was
absolutely a four out of 10 second half
for the goal I probably give him a six
so five for me um I I don't think Bruno
played well uh really um I'm never going
to give up on him because he's one of my
favorite players at the club and I'm
never gonna say that he doesn't put a
shift in because he never stops running
and he never will be substituted but I
don't think it was a good performance
and I think there's a bigger question
here as well and it's probably not for
tonight but what I would say about Bruno
Fernandez is next season he's going to
be here whatever happens in the Summer
with the summer transfer window can man
united challenge Man City Arsenal
Liverpool next season with new players
maybe a new manager with him in the team
and that's a big question no one wants
to ask because it always becomes about
player FC I'm I'm posing a genu
intellectual football Point can a man
united side challenge Liverpool Man City
or Arsenal with Bruno Fernandez in it
that's the question forget his player
rating forget who the manager is next
year forget who gets sold or bought he
will be playing in that number 10
position next year guaranteed with the
captain's arm band on his
arm can we succeed with the number 10
like
that I think there needs to be a massive
change in the way he plays the game and
we've never seen it do you think the
media swirl about casemiro being shipped
out went to his head thinking if the
club wants to push me out why should I
care says Sam don't know shout out to my
six-year-old Elijah first Liverpool Man
United game watch says Zach I tell you
what it was an entertaining game gacho
six for me thought he put a shift in
gets it um tough game but I thought he I
thought he did well an average
performance not not a bad performance uh
five from rashford I
mean the best thing I can say is that he
didn't
jog but it wasn't a good performance uh
five for Rasmus as well uh he never
stopped running there is no service for
the guy at all I mean he's basically a
number 10 he he's a Creator he never
gets any service uh graveyard shift but
you can't give him a six it's a below
performance because he's just not
getting any service thought Anthony came
on well and i' give him a six definitely
um amrabat I thought came on and did
okay I'd probably give him a six as well
Mount came on I thought the yellow card
was brilliant perfect he has to make
that foul they're going to be H us it's
a you know it's cynical but he does and
I probably give 10 hog or six as well in
the circumstances and I I was never
going to judge ten hog today if we'd won
2-1 I would have said Well Done To The
Players if we'd lost three nil I would
have put it on the players I said that
on the morning show today to me wasn't
about ten hog we've got so many injuries
we can't ever really judge United as a
tactical team against Liverpool with all
the problems that we've got you
basically as a manager sending the
players out there and saying it's
Liverpool at home you've got to go out
there and put a performance in and we
did to a certain extent some of them did
some of them didn't and I think you know
fair play they didn't down tools
completely which means there is some
respect for the manager but ultimately
in a game like that you're in the hands
of the players some of them really
performed some of them didn't so I'll
give average six for ten hog who was
your man of the match this I'm hoping
I'm hoping and I'm very very happy to
say Harry MaGuire got 22% by the way but
62% of you go with CA as your man of the
match and I completely agree I think I
said it in the first half he's looking
like man of the match and then in the
second half it just became more and more
apparent I mean to be thrown into this
game as well and put in a performance
like that I thought he was absolutely
fantastic so I'm really really pleased
that he got it because um you know it
was difficult circumstances today and uh
one where I probably thought thought um
he he might struggle but um as I thought
we'd all struggle um right fan forum is
starting make sure you subscribe bottom
right hand corner next season's probably
going to be a right off as well says
Ryan the next 18 months about building
preparing Etc we never deserved the win
Liverpool ran all over it says Ghost
Hunter the players should have aimed for
Bradley and got him sent off I agree be
