Man Utd boss Ten Hag made three changes following the previous last-gasp 2-1 loss at Brighton, with forward Joshua Zirkzee and defender Matthijs de Ligt both handed first starts following big-money summer transfers, while Alejandro Garnacho came in on the wing.
Brazilian midfielder Casemiro was then taken off at the break, having given the ball away in the build-up to both of Liverpool’s first-half goals.
A number of pundits and former players expressed their confusion last season at Ten Hag still not knowing a style of play or his best team.
Man Utd legend Rio Ferdinand even labelled the Red Devils’ style of play under Ten Hag as “kamikaze chaos football” in April and there has been little sign of improvement this term.
And Ferdinand’s former team-mate Peter Schmeichel is also concerned that Ten Hag still seems to be contributing to big transfer decisions.
