Now it's important for Liverpool to make some changes and focus on their competition. 1 trophy they have got and there are still 2 competitions they have to finish because after all the competition still continues especially for the EPL so instead of just having to dwell on mistakes because they had to lose to Manchester United yesterday they currently have to be able to focus more and correct existing mistakes because indeed their performance yesterday was very good just that there were some mistakes that occurred due to fatigue and lack of concentration that made Liverpool have to give up the semi-finals to Manchester United.

But with this, they will also be freer to focus on the EPL and Europa League because with their elimination from the FA Cup it can provide a situation where Klopp is not too concerned with player rotation and shortening players. Currently Salah is back and this can be used as a good weapon for Liverpool in continuing the competition they are doing.

The efforts of Manchester United and their coach in the FA Cup quarter-finals paid off by winning the match against Liverpool. Their trip to the final is probably more likely than Chelsea or Manchester City, I mean Manchester United only met weak teams in the semifinals and that was lucky. The fans and everyone in the squad may be grateful for that, but I think their fight in the FA Cup is not over yet.

One of Chelsea or Manchester City will reach the final this season. The second match will be a match that is highly anticipated, but to be honest, I hope that Manchester City can really qualify for the final and win the title no matter who challenges them. The chances of Manchester City and Manchester United getting to the final are certainly higher than for Ceventry City and Chelsea, but we all never know whether Chelsea and Coventry will just give up in the semifinals.

But indeed for the semi-finals at least they are possible to win because their opponent is Coventry City who surprisingly can be in the semi-finals because their opponents are still quite comparable to the quality of the players, it's just that for the semi-finals against Manchester United it allows them to fall and have to end their hopes of being in the final.
But I agree with what you said because Manchester United's task is still quite heavy especially to see the final. They are favourites in the semi-finals but not necessarily for the final because looking at the other pots in the semi-finals there are Chelsea and Manchester City which are indeed 2 big clubs. The ideal final for the FA Cup might be Manchester City facing Manchester United but certainly it will be a tough test for Manchester United in giving the trophy that they can still fight for but it is definitely difficult to get.

The astounding performance by Manchester United in their recent match against Liverpool left spectators in awe, including myself. I never anticipated such a remarkable display of skill and determination from the team. Despite Liverpool's commendable effort, Manchester United's performance surpassed all expectations.They played well and able to secured their qualification to the next level. The way they outperformed Liverpool indicates the potential for a promising future in the league. If Manchester United can maintain this level of excellence, there's a real possibility of them securing a spot in the top four by the end of the season. While I was thrilled about Manchester United's qualification, the disappointment of losing my bet lingered, serving as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of sports.

It was a sad loss and a disappointing performance, but the good thing is not in the league.
There are bigger games to come, onto the EPL and Europa League.
And I know Liverpool has been amazing this season for real, one bad game doesn't mean this team is bad.
It could even be a blessing in disguise, they will learn and win more prestigious trophies.
And I still believe Liverpool will come back stronger.

Winning the quadruple will only remain a dream in a league like the premier league. If it was easy Manchester City would have achieved this. You see this kind of dreams
will take forever to achieve. There are many teams who are hungry for trophy in the premier league so achieving the quadruple won't be very easy, at some point you have to also consider the players, as these competition are taking place same season and the players needs to rest as well. When you have a league that have up to 6 strong teams capable of winning the league, it will be difficult to keep competing in all front.

While Liverpool will be focusing on the Premier League that they are still contenders to win some drama has been started at the bottom of the table. Struggling Nottingham Forest have had four points deducted from what they have this season for breaking financial rules.

It is good news for Luton because they are now out of the relegation zone and ahead of Nottingham Forest with a point.

Everton were found guilty earlier this season and had ten points deducted, later reduced to six points after an appeal. Nottingham Forest had only four points deducted because they did not try to mislead the investigation like Everton were accused of which resulted to more points deducted. Maybe Nottingham Forest will try to appeal.

Liverpool should know that winning four trophies in a season is not easy and will require them to be more tougher than the way they’re currently playing. Their performance is good but not enough to win all of the trophies in the four competitions they are competing in this season. After their yesterday’s defeat to Manchester United which was actually surprising to me, they still have two more competitions they’re participating in after triumphing in one of them when they won Chelsea in the finals some weeks ago.

In the Europa League, they seem to be one of the favourites for the cup but they need to be able to beat all the other teams to make their way to the final which I feel is the most difficult part for them. Bayern Leverkusen who are dominating their league are potential favourite for the trophy and they would have to beat them in the finals to triumph in this competition too. With the draws of the Europa League, Bayern Leverkusen can make it to the final as well as Liverpool where they’ll play the big game between themselves to get a winner.

The premier league is also much available for Liverpool to win also, but they need to be at their best form and try not lose any match again while hoping for their closest rivals to drop points. It’s a tight leave to decide now, but the best team will prevail in this.

Yesterday's defeat was not Jurgen Klopp's fault because Klopp had directed his players to play their best.
Not being able to win against them in the FA Cup, doesn't mean Liverpool can't take back the best position in the Premier League. The European League is still a big opportunity for Liverpool to achieve.

There is still a chance to beat Manchester United which will be scheduled for April 7.
Two matches before facing Manchester United, Liverpool has the opportunity to return to the top because Arsenal will challenge Manchester City and in that week Liverpool will be back on top.

Everyone is just talking about Manchester United performance in their last match, Nobody expected that kind of performance from Manchester United, I never believed they will win the match, but the result of the match was really surprising, maybe Liverpool have learnt their lesson, don’t underestimate any club, Manchester United inconsistency this season made Liverpool underestimated them, but Manchester United surprised them. Congrats to Manchester United, they really deserve the result of the match because they played well in the match, they never relent from the beginning of the match till when the match ended, which really helped them.

What I saw in this match, Man United had a mentality that they don't usually have. It's rare to see them play like that, where they can maintain their enthusiasm and efforts even though they are in an unfavorable position. Their performance is clearly below Liverpool's but that didn't make Man United just give up. This is almost similar to what happened at the Champion Final in 1999 where Man United can get a comeback at the end of the match because of their tenacity.

I think Liverpool were also caught off guard, when they thought that the match would continue with a penalty shootout, they forgot that Man United still had the stamina and speed to carry out a counterattack, and it turned out that their carelessness really became a nightmare for them.

Actually, the target of achieving four titles is quite reasonable because Liverpool is actually capable of doing that, but in reality they had to forget about that beautiful dream because they had to be eliminated very painfully by Manchester United. Now Liverpool are once again hoping for luck in the Premier League and Europa League, of course the two remaining trophies are prestigious enough to always be able to get. The opportunities for the Reds are quite open, it's just that Klopp must always be self-aware and use yesterday's defeat as a lesson. But what is clear is that it is not easy for anyone to win the EPL trophy.

Erik Ten Hag is yet to lift the important trophies for Manchester United. Erik Ten Hag knocking Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool from the FA Cup just save his day and also boosts the confidence, that's how to win big games this season. Manchester United coach, Erik Ten Hag is always here to ensure things works exactly perfect and smooth for his club, there's absolutely no room for reluctance because he's aiming for title winning this season. We know how he poses when he's desperately pulling targets on titles.

The FA Cup trophy are mainly for the serious team and Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea are the prominent Champions, one of them will become champions of the FA Cup this season. Manchester United played their best because Liverpool is one of the problematic opponents they have this season. Its still huge surprised to see the Red Devils kicks out Liverpool from the FA Cup quarterfinals. The vast number of the supporters was in support of Liverpool but they were shocked to understand and see how everything resulted at the end.

If it was by the most inform teams then the most in-form teams should be winning all the trophies available in the league. As good as Man City has been in recent years, they've only won one treble, meaning in other seasons, someone has knocked them out of other competitions. A team doesn't have to be on a certain standard before they knock out another team. It's a game of 90 minutes and whoever wins, progresses.
I didn't expect Manchester United to win, but they did and that means they deserve to be where they are.


As they say "one game at a time".
The Liverpool game has passed and now they'll focus on the next game. If they win, fine, if they don't win, they take their L. But games like this build confidence and trust among squads. I won't be surprised if this is the game that makes them sit up.
I can't blame Liverpool for losing, they had a lot of injuries and they also had the league and Europa to fight for. Manchester United only has the FA Cup.

The truth of the matter is that I never expected Manchester United to eliminate Liverpool from the English FA Cup competition and I'm sure I'm not the only one had expected a Liverpool win in that match but football isn't played in the back pages of newspapers. Liverpool without doubt was the better team during the normal time of the game and had they converted most of their clear chances they missed, Liverpool would've won that game without playing in extra time but unfortunately for them, they failed to be as prolific as they should be and that's why the game reached the extra time which Manchester United still came from behind to win.
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has been receiving a lot of praises because of the result of the game and how he was able to make the tactical changes that helped his team win that game and if you ask me , I think he deserves every applaud he's getting.
Manchester United will face Coventry in the semi finals of the English FA Cup and despite the fact that Coventry have been very outstanding this season in the English FA Cup, I expect Manchester United to eliminate them akd reach final of the competition.

Football generally is full of surprises like this, I am also happy for Liverpool's loss to Manchester united, atleast, if not for anything, its for the fact that Arsenal are now the ones at the top of the club, though they are still sitting at the exactly same point with Liverpool, but then, this flip is definitely something, and i only hope that arsenal will do all within their power to not lose this current position of their until the end of this season, thereby, making them the winner of this season's title.

The game between Liverpool and Manchester united is a clear example of why we should underrate any team or club, no matter how bad they seem to have been playing or have played in the past, things can change at any time and they can come out victorious when people least expect it.
I can only imagine how many gamblers who had their bet on Liverpool to win the match, but unfortunately, Manchester ungerd united surprised us all, good and a deserving win for them, for the way they played showed that they indeed worked really hard for it.

Surprising where my prediction Liverpool will win despite the away match, we believe because Liverpool's performance capabilities are quite better than Manchester United, but the prediction missed and indeed the hosts won deservedly because they managed to comeback by taking advantage of all the gaps in the room.

Manchester United's motivation rose again after successfully equalizing of course from pain and fatigue will not be felt they just want to win until the end, it must be admitted this is a deserved victory for them and Liverpool this time must submit even though this is not a Premier League match.

Some Manchester United fans will say that, don't predict the result while the match is in progress but look at the result after the match ends. I think they have a point, especially because throughout this season Manchester United have managed to come back in the last minutes and they won the game in the end.

Regarding the match against Liverpool, I also said it was a great match for them. Manchester United played better at the end of the match and they really broke down Liverpool's mentality, who were also hoping to qualify for the semifinals. It was truly a performance we have rarely seen from Manchester United in a long time, so it was a performance that will be remembered by all fans. Jurgen Klopp and his players will certainly regret the result, but there is something more important to fight for and that is the Premier League and Europa League titles.

Manchester United's victory against Liverpool are commendable and contributes to their confidence booster. They actually have ability to compete with and defeat top teams, but their potential capability just rises on occasions which doesnt suit the success of competition. Their struggles against lower-ranked opponents implies the importance of consistency and adaptability in football. Addressing these challenges and striving for improvement can enhance their competitiveness.

Despite their success against top teams, Manchester United's inconsistency against lower-ranked opponents implies a recurring challenge for the team. Matches against weaker teams often present different tactical challenges and require a different mindset, which United may struggle to consistently adapt to. Achieving consistency in performance across all matches, regardless of the opponent's ranking, is a key objective for Manchester United. The ability to approach every game with the same level of focus, intensity, and determination is essential for sustained success in the Premier League.

If they had nothing else going for them then maybe they would have cared, but they do have the league title race going right now so they would probably care less. It would have been nice, but it just didn't happen. Think about it, we are talking about a potential 4 cup season, that would have been insane.

At the same time, now they have one title possibility as well, they already won one, so they will end with just one, but they may lose the league and europa too. So if they end up like that, then I would assume that they would be pretty upset about that without a doubt. I think it's clear that they will try their best on everything that is left, at least they could give it a shot and see how they will do eventually for sure.
