Liverpool landed a massive blow to Manchester United’s quadruple hopes as Jurgen Kopp’s side handed the Red devils a heavy defeat by 7-0. This was one of United’s toughest losses ever and Erik Ten Hag also conceded 7 goals for the first time as the man in charge at Old Trafford.
It was only last week that Ten Hag and his men ended a 6-year trophy drought as they defeated Newcastle United at Wembley by 2-0. Within a week, United dealt with a massive loss which will definitely scar them for at least some time. United’s Dutch manager Erik Ten Hag was absolutely furious with his team’s performance and also said some harsh things for the team.
“Second half it was not us. It was not our standards. We didn’t play as a team. We didn’t stick to the plan, we lose our heads. We didn’t do our jobs. We didn’t track back and it was really unprofessional.”
In the recent past this season, we have seen United come back from behind to win important matches like the ones they registered against Manchester City and Brentford most recently. However, it was not the case at Anfield on Sunday night.
The 52-year-old said that it is a reality check for the team and labelled it as their worst performance of the season.

“We lost the game at the end of the first half and at the start of the second but you have to keep your head up and we didn’t. It’s all about showing discipline and we didn’t, so that’s when you start conceding goals.”
Meanwhile, social media is running wild and trolling Manchester United for their terrible 7-0 loss. Here are some of the best reactions –
