REDS GO GOAL CRAZY TO HUMILIATE TEN HAG 7-0

- By DOMINIC KING Northern Football Correspond­ent

ERIK TEN HAG slammed his ‘ unprofessi­onal’ Manchester United players after Liverpool inflicted the club’s heaviest defeat since 1931 with an astonishin­g demolition at Anfield.

Leading 1-0 at half-time through Cody Gakpo, Jurgen Klopp’s men went into overdrive after the break with Darwin Nunez (two), Gakpo, Mo Salah (two) and Roberto Firmino all finding the net. And a fuming Ten Hag pulled no punches in his assessment. ‘It was really unprofessi­onal,’ he said. ‘We didn’t stick to the plan, we lost our heads. We didn’t do our jobs. We let the fans down and I’m really disappoint­ed and angry about it.’

Roy Keane called United ‘embarrassi­ng’. The former United captain, speaking on Sky Sports, said: ‘That was a very, very bad day, shocking really. The big players really let the club down.’
