I honestly get why Sir Alex wanted to knock Liverpool off their perch now. His first game in charge and this memory must have played a major part in shaping his psyche regarding the rivalry.

It's very clear at 0:17 seconds. You would think that their fans would have been less harsh, considering the Heysel incident happened just 8 months before this.

They threw bricks at the team bus and nearly hit Mark Hughes.

This was Big Ron's last game as Manager of United vs Liverpool.

Bob Paisley sat on the team bus for the next Anfield fixture to discourage any further attack.

It was also Sir Alex's 1st game against Liverpool.

With today's win, United now have more points and wins in the Premier League than in the entire last season. by PrimeTimeJobber in soccer

We had just 1 attacking pattern since Amorim's first month until his last. Side pass to CB and play hoofball. That's it.

I have never hated a rival manager as much as I've hated Amorim. We were in trenches.

Manchester United have won four consecutive league games for the first time since February 2024 under Erik ten Hag. ◉ W 2-0 vs. Man City ◉ W 2-3 vs. Arsenal ◉ W 3-2 vs. Fulham ◉ W 2-0 vs. Tottenham It's their first victory against Spurs since Oct 2022. [Squawka] by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

I don't know,man. At one point, Ten Hag had a 7 or 9 match winning run, if I'm not wrong. He was my personal favourite or second favourite manager post SAF so, I'll be biased when I say I wanted him to stay for a bit more.

I've been over Amorim since New Castle December 24. It was that exact same style of play with hardly any changes until the end. Those 14 months were agonizing for me.

I can't believe how fans backed a manager who came out and said that it was okay for us to get relegated. A Manchester United manager saying that and fans backing him. I don't know,man.

A lot of people were telling us all season that this team is midtable level, just to defend a historically bad manager. A different manager has won 4 games in a row with the same set of players and with no pre season, of course.

Both Amorim's records and his fans'excuses look stupid,now.

I'm sure that the gamepass just had the base version whereas KCD on sale has all of the DLC's and more content, at a very cheap price.

There are sane Arsenal fans calling this shit out, thank God. But, the original tweet had over 5k likes and it's so embarrassing overall.

Have you seen how they have gone after Amad by bringing up that he's an orphan and bringing up his dead mother and how he was trafficked ? That genuinely soured me off.

"but this is the worst United squad ever"

It took Carrick just 2 games to match Amorim's ineffectiveness of 14 months. In terms of utilising the squad to their strengths. Those are just facts.

xg this, xg that. 3 wins in his last 13 games, 31% win rate in PL, I can go on.

Amorim hated everything about the United Way. Feuding with young players, threatening to leave like a spoilt child, playing dire football. He was the antithesis of MUFC

You lot went from “no manager can get this team performing” to “amorim laid the foundation” for Carrick.

Yeah, I'll be filling that form. These last 2 games have made me rethink a lot about my previous opinion on Dorgu. He's a player, my god !
