Manchester United’s English striker urges players and supporters to stick together following the historic slap (0-7) received on Liverpool’s lawn.
The backlash is so strong following such a collective bankruptcy, of considerable magnitude, that a strong speech was expected on Monday, the day following the historic beating (7-0) inflicted by Liverpool on Manchester United. While the English press is unleashed and Mancunian supporters are demanding accountability from certain team executives, foremost among whom is captain Bruno Fernandes, striker Marcus Rashford spoke on Twitter.
“I wish we might play a game today to try to fix things, he said. The result is what it is, there is nothing more we can do regarding it. But we must not let it define our season. We have to have confidence in our method and stick together.”
“It was very bad”
You have to go back 90 years to find traces of such humiliation inflicted in England on the Red Devils. But once morest Liverpool, that had never happened before, not by seven goals. What cause some embarrassment in the staff of the Dutch Erik ten Hag, who did not escape, evoking “unacceptable professional misconduct” in a cold anger last night.
“I have no explanation. I will have to find one, he confided to the microphone of Sky Sports. In the first period, we rather had control, we even had maybe the best chances, but we made a mistake. And in the second half, at the beginning, we offered two goals where we were very bad in the defensive transition and from there, everything fell apart. there was no more team, we no longer respected the planned tactics, there were only eleven individuals left (on the field). It was very bad.”
