FSG put plans in place to stop Man Utd nightmare at Liverpool after 'worst signing in history'

Liverpool might have struggled to beat Manchester United this season, wasting chances galore in two Premier League draws and an FA Cup exit, but few others can say the same.

The Red Devils fell to a pathetic 4-0 defeat away at Crystal Palace on Monday night, with the loss leaving them eighth in the table and at risk of missing out on European football next season altogether.

Losing 13 Premier League matches to date 35 outings, such a total is already their highest in Premier League history and the most since 1989/90. Meanwhile, currently on 54 points, they need five more to overtake their lowest points return (58 in 2021/22) in Premier League history and again since 1989/90.

Winning just once in 90 minutes from their last nine matches, with such a run including two meetings with Liverpool, it really does beg the question how on earth did Jurgen Klopp's men not emerge victorious against Erik ten Hag’s struggling side at least once this season. Admittedly, the German has conceded more than once how such a quandary has contributed to
