Alan Shearer got the last laugh as Manchester United were thumped by Liverpool just days after Erik ten Hag slammed the Premier League legend’s ‘stupid analysis’ of his team.
Goals from Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah secured a 3-0 win for Liverpool at Old Trafford on Sunday, with United beginning the season with two defeats in three games.
‘They got absolutely battered, was like men against boys. They were awful, Liverpool were brilliant.’
In his analysis, Jamie Carragher said that the Reds already had more ‘identity’ under new boss Arne Slot than United had under Ten Hag after two years in the job, a point Shearer says the Liverpool legend ‘absolutely nailed’.
