Liverpool vs Manchester United Monday Night Football on the COCK
Liverpool vs Manchester United used to be the greatest rivalry in English Football. Now there is a tremendous gap between the two clubs. It's only the third match of the season , but United look to be fighting a relegation battle this season while Liverpool have drawn their opening two matches of the season . Last season Liverpool did the double over United defeating them 9-0 on aggregate. It would not be surprising to see results this season, but you never know. Join me for the match on the COCK if you can

They're off from Anfield .
COME ON MAN UNITED!
According to Charles Darwin, Nunez failed in the Survival of the Fittest and as a result his con sequence is a three match ban
Rash put through but took too long to shoot and his shot was blocked
Harry Maguire deservedly benched today. Varane starting in his place Bobby Chompoers in for the suspended Charles Darwin Nunez
TAA fouls Rash a foot outside the corner of the box
Free kick off the wall and out for a corner as it lands on top of the goal
OH! Elnga misses a wide open goal.. Tackle won then Bruno slid to pass to a wide open Elnga and his shot came off the post
Afternoon, David - thanks for getting us going. I'm still trying to get the link up and running.
The tackle was won by McTomain and Alison was poisoned as he was caught out of position
Good Afternoon. Glad to help and glad to enjoy the pleasure of your company. How was the first day of class?
United's last competitive goal was by Varane vs the Bees in May
Wahay! Sancho strikes first blood!
way hay! sancho gives united the lead
Milner letting Van Dyke have it
And now Jamie Milner and Virgil are having an argument about the goal. What a mess Liverpool are in.
I'm onto the Peacock stream now - cheers!
Nice one touch passing then the assist came from Elanga tased to Sancho who dummied Milner then shot past Alison
A mistake on my part is that the match is from OT , not from Anfield
United move up to 14th place while Poolis down to 16th place. Wolves replace United in the drop zone
A discouraging stat is that this is the seventh Prem match run a row Pool have fallen behind . They're undefeated the previous six times
Oh - Sancho played Rash through and that might have been number 2.
Great block by Joe Gomez Addams . Pool looking more like Morticia. Klopp will be like Grizzly during his halftime talk
TTA gets burned for pace by Elanga and picks up a yellow for his trouble. Ericksen can float one in.
Stupid shirt pull by TAA on Elanga just outside the United box
Oh - Eriksen went for it and Alisson had to tip it around. Liverpool really on the rack. Great stuff!
OH! Curling free kick from EWriksen well turned around by Alison. Corner from Malacia just too high for Bruno
This isn't the same United that lost the first two matches of the season
Varane booked for obstruction on Luis Diaz after United lost the ball in midfield
Hendo volleys well wide off a cross from Salah
Luis Diaz wins a corner off of Dalot
Casemiro, the new United signing , in the executives box. I'm guessing he'll replace McTomain in the starting lineup
If this result holds up, United will leap out of the relegation zone to 14th and Liverpool will drop to 16th. I love how unpredictable this season has been!
How do you feel about the Casemiro signing?
I think it's a good signing and will make United more solid in the middle of the pitch. I',m surprised United were able to sign a player of his quality giventhatthey're not in the CL this season
Oh - cleared off the line by Martinez! Somehow scrambled away. United's lead survives somehow.
Salah with a shot blocked by Lisandro Martinez for a corner .
YIKES Pool nearly tied it up with an OG off the corner. Headed inby Milner then Bruno off his own post then hoofed away by Lisandro Martinez
Andy Robertson wins a corner off of Varane
Dalot booked for a foul on Luis Diaz
A minute of stoppage time
Free kick from Andy Robertson headed away then cleared
United one up at the half after an unexpected excellent performance
Great first half for United - I'm sure that you're relieved. United need this performance.
I'm off to set up my 4:30 class. I'll check in later on.
Cheers, Bob. Wishing you a good semester. Thanks for your support in the first half
Second half underway and one Un item change as Elanga has been karate chopped off the pitch. First Prem karate chop of the season for United
Pool wins free kick .TAA to take

Harvey Elliott with a volley blocked or a corner despite the efforts of Sancho to prevent the corner
Corner from TAA volleyed by Salah into the top corner of the Stratford End
Malacia wins a United free kick off of Harvey Elliott.
WAY HAY! RASH PUTS UNITED TWO UP
VAR checking for offside . I think it may get chalked off. Nice karate chopped through ball.
WAY HAY! IT COUNTS
The goal came from a bout off volleyed tennis and a back volley from Hendo found Kung Fu Panda and he found Rash as Pool were caught upfield and he scored past the stranded Alison
After a great save by De Gea , Rash is tackled by TAA for a United corner. Taken by Eikrsen , headed away then nice juggling by Varane finds Rash and his shot is turned around by Alison
United still fourteenth , behind Villa by virtue of alphabet soup. If U united go three up they will overtake Chelsea for twelfth place
Fab about to come on for Pool. I'm surprised he didn't start
Like for like as Fab is on for Hendo.
Pool were last winless in their first three Prem matches in 2012-13
Bobby Chomperas lacking bite as he completely missed his kick on an attempted volley off a cross from Joe Gomez
My mistake . United cannot overtake Chelsea as they're a point behind
Salah wins a corner off of Malacia
A header from Fab saved by De Gea off the corner
A standing ovation for Sancho as he's replaced by Fred. A defensive change by Erik Ten Hag
Fabio Carvalho on for Milner to boos from the crowd
Bruno booked for diving . a horrible attempt at trying to win a penalty
OH! Just over by Rash after getting past TAA , Harvey Elliott then stronger in a challenge with Joe Gomez before shooting just over
Lisandro Martinez down with cramp
Back up and able to continue
A lobbed pass comes off of Varane for a Pool corner
Bobby Chompers heads the corner from TAA in to the ground and straight to De Gea
OH De Gea superbly turns a round a shot from Bobby Chompers . Actually what would have been an OG by Lisandro Martinez

Salah wins a corner off of Malacia
Corner from Andy Robertson punched away by De Gea then well wide by TAA
Tsimikas on for Andy Robertson. Like for like. For United, Cr 7 on for Rash , Obi Wan for Dalot and VDB for Eriksen. All those changes were pretty much like for like
Varane down with cramp for United. There should be a fair amount of stoppage time.
Play resumes
A quintet of stoppage time minutes
A Karate chopped block by Alison as the United player was through
A long United pass back headed by Tsimikas for a late United corner
It's over and United record their first points of the season with a 2-1 win over Liverpool
United up to fourteenth place with Pool in sixteenth place
That's it for me. Great chatting . Looking forward to chatting this weekend.

Well done, United - and well done, David. It was a pleasure chatting with you today.
