Liverpool team is very strong. Liverpool team will play at home against Manchester United today. I think Liverpool will win today. Manchester United's performance has been very erratic. Liverpool can beat Manchester United only if Liverpool's performance is stable. United's defense is also quite weak.
The only fear I have for the Manchester United sides is their goal keeper, Onana. He has been consistently making mistakes that were never there before he was signed. Even in the ongoing match, he already committed a mistake that can lead to a goal.  Apart from this, Manchester United is playing so well. Nevertheless, draw is not a bad result for Manchester United.

Manchester United goalkeeper Onana has made several mistakes. And Manchester United conceded the goal due to Onana's mistake. However, at the same time, Manchester United's defense is also very weak. Poor defense can easily create scoring opportunities for opponents. Without improving the defense, only onana should not be blamed.
It seems that Liverpool really dominated the game and I think it's only a matter of time before they score. Man United was completely helpless, and they were really forced to play full defense, so there are practically not many attacks that Man United can make.

There is one thing that is bothering me. For what reason does Ten Hag always play McTominay even though he doesn't have much to contribute, apart from just scoring a lucky goal which he doesn't seem to have anymore. In this match, he often made the wrong passes and he couldn't even hold the ball.

Ten Hag only plays his favorite players. Even though there are still several good midfielders such as Amrabat, Casemiro and Eriksen that he could use as options to play.
Sometimes I find it difficult to understand the tactics Ten Hag uses. So far the game has not been consistent.
Right now I'm watching the Liverpool vs Manchester United match, the first half statistics are dominated by Liverpool even though the finishing still hasn't resulted in a goal. With almost 68% ball possession, a total of 15 shots.

If Ten Hag loses this match, it is not impossible that he will be kicked from the Manchester United coaching chair.
Because remembering that Manchester United was slaughtered 7-0 by Liverpool in Week 26 of the Premier League.
