Liverpool: Four takeaways from a 4-2 win over Manchester United

Liverpool needed to make a statement against bitter rivals Manchester United on Thursday night at Old Trafford. With all the unrest heading into the match due to the protests of the Glazer Family’s horrendous ownership, the Reds needed to stay focused through all the potential danger and keep in mind that this match is vital to qualifying for the Champions League next season.

The Reds conceded first to Bruno Fernandes, but they scored three goals in response and eventually sealed the deal 4-2.

Here are the takeaways from Liverpool’s big win over the Red Devils.

Mohamed Salah shows his heart

One of the most bizarre narratives is that Mohamed Salah is selfish or does not care enough about Liverpool. It is honestly one of the most ridiculous, unfair things that is said, and it is often parroted by pundits who really don’t deserve the platforms they’ve been given to discuss football.

Watch the way Salah celebrated Liverpool’s fourth goal, and you’ll see how much this win meant to him. Salah gives his blood, sweat, and tears for this club, and he has carried the Reds through a tumultuous season. He knows how incredible it would be for the club to qualify for the Champions League amidst all the issues and doubts.

Salah is doing whatever he can to see Liverpool through this tough season, and he put together a very good performance at Old Trafford.
