On Sunday, United were blown to bits at Anfield, sent home with seven goals in their net. Monday was the day when the Island made fun of them, when social networks were flooded with posts like “Erik seven Hague” and such.It was also a new opportunity for the established set of critics to say what they have, to throw themselves into a deep analysis and point the finger at the culprit. Or more of them. Jamie Carragher is known for sparing no one, Casemiro was at his ‘gunpoint’, he had a lot of complaints, but he also noted what everyone can see: when the Brazilian is not in his element or is not on the field, United burst at the seams.Ten Hag’s punishment, discontent with Bruno and sessions with psychologistHe wasn’t himself in the derby, he constantly trotted and made mistakes in handing over passes, and on top of all of that he got injured. He came off before the end of the game, complaining of pain and there is a possibility that he will miss the duel against Betis in the Europa League, which means that the midfield tandem could once again be Fred and Scott McTominay. That will make a massive number of Manchester fans’ hair stand up.##NAJAVA_MECA_7079989##And the worst of all would be if Erik ten Hag were to push his men, because it could be counterproductive. Casemiro fell out of rhythm, he was not the one who “eats up” the players he marks. And when that is the case – United have little to hope for.”Casemiro is one of the best players in the league this season, but he was very bad in the derby. A player of his class should not pass the ball the way he did. He should have looked out for Harvey Elliott… The second goal for United was killer. Casemiro couldn’t get close to anyone, he fell twice,” said Jamie Carragher and continued:”This is his worst game in terms of passing. It all shows how important he is to Manchester United. They lost against City without him, when he wasn’t up to par they conceded seven goals against Liverpool.”If Jamie Carragher had the final say, Cody Gakpo and Harvey Elliott would not be starters in that game. Jürgen Klopp chose differently, his ideas did not match those of the consultant and – he the German was not wrong.2 – Cody Gakpo & Darwin Núñez are the first Liverpool duo to both score a brace in the same top-flight match against Manchester United since Arthur Goddard & James Stewart in February 1910.

For me, he is a revelation and a sign that Liverpool’s attacking three can flourish.”Cody Gakpo ‘bought’ Carragher’s sympathy at Anfield against United, Mohamed Salah much earlier. The Egyptian loves playing against the Red Devils, they are his regular customers, and on Sunday he reminded everyone what a class he is. And how much the Reds miss showing their true colors more often this season.”That moment was ‘wow’. I like Salah’s composure, he just waits and then goes at it. His run was absolutely fantastic… And what a finish. Don’t forget how much he ran”, Jamie Carragher was delighted with the edition of the club for which he once played in the big English derby.
