So I think they'll take it game by game.

I think every club down there should because there will be shocks this season.

Thank you.

Thank you.

That's now my favourite debut.

Is it?

Very excited.

This game feels big and it's no different this time.

There's always a narrative around it.

We can always find a narrative and there always is.

Well, essentially did what they did at the Etihad in December, but to slightly less success.

I mean, they had 32% possession and when they got hold of it, it was like a four-pronged attack, like the Red Arrows.

And I'd actually go as far as saying it's the only time this season that Liverpool have looked seriously unsettled for a long period of a game.

But once again, United really began to sat in, whether that was to protect their lead or because they were sort of spent, probably more of the latter.

And Liverpool just about managed to get something for Adam Lallana.

Now, there were a couple of doubts after the Liverpool game.

It was really their first sign of weakness in the season.

Their new defensive line was sort of questioned.

But I mean, it's fair to say they haven't really looked back since.

Well, I think for United to be successful, this sort of four-pronged attack is all well and good, but you can't be successful without a good defence.
