in the greater scheme of things, it wasn't a very important fixture for united, of course it's a huge game, and it always will be, and you always want your respective team to win it, but despite the score line, it wasn't as heart breaking a result as it could have been if united weren't in such a strong position, if we'd lost the inter game i'd have been far more dissappointed

it was a good performance from liverpool, but they didn't dominate, united played some good football and created chances, liverpool hit us on the break and took advantage of some very uncharactistic mistakes, the score line flattered liverpool tbf
