It&#8217;s All Kicking Off\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Erik ten Hag said he is proud of his team and that they \u2018should do this more often\u2019 after heavily-scrutinised Manchester United earned a decent away point in a game that many had tipped Liverpool to ease to victory.<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool had 34 shots but could not break down United, with many players including goalkeeper Andre Onana putting in their strongest defensive display of the season. And manager Ten Hag left thinking his side had the better chances to win the game.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I said after the game in the dressing room that I&#8217;m very proud of this team,\u2019 said the Dutchman. \u2018We should do this more often. I said this. For instance, Newcastle was also a tough game, we made one mistake, we switched off and conceded the goal.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018But when you stay in the game, when you are disciplined in your game-plan, finally it opens up and you can take your chances or get two, three, four passes in after the ball regains, get the switches in and then you can really be more dominant in the game.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Asked if last season\u2019s 7-0 drubbing was used as motivation, Ten Hag added: \u2018We mentioned it but I said to them last year we played them three times, we lost one time but we beat them two times. We are capable of beating Liverpool and we proved that today.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/17\/20\/79062153-12874499-image-m-2_1702844250631.jpg\" height=\"488\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Man United boss Erik ten Hag expressed his pride after his side&#8217;s draw with Liverpool<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018If we bring this every game on the pitch. First of all, we are a hard team to beat but from that point, we can go and win games and also big games. In the end, you have to conclude, we had the best chances\u2026 for Rasmus Hojlund and Alejandro Garnacho.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Jurgen Klopp said there were lots of positives to take despite Liverpool being unable to score. \u2018Besides the result, a lot of positives about this game, the decisive stuff was not there today,\u2019 he said. \u2018The goal if we had scored it would have changed everything.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018They fought hard for it, credit to them. We just had to keep going. Tried pretty much everything, changed the system, brought fresh players on and everything could have worked out with better decisions. The way United defended was with a lot of passion.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Klopp added that midfielder Ryan Gravenberch had suffered a hamstring injury and is now a doubt for the festive fixtures, joining a long list of players on the treatment table including Diogo Jota, Andy Robertson, Alexis Mac Allister, Thiago Alcantara, Joel Matip and Stefan Bajcetic.<\/p>\n<p>Klopp said: \u2018We will see, it got worse during the game and we hoped it would go by and there was this really intense sprint with the ball which ended by the 18-yard line. I hope it is not that serious but in the next 10 days (there are) three more games so I don\u2019t know.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Asked on the title race, Klopp added: \u2018I couldn\u2019t really be interested. I am happy we are in the area we are in but I don\u2019t know why we open that discussion. It is December. My boys looked to me that they are really ready to give it a proper try and we will see.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/17\/20\/79061855-12874499-image-a-3_1702844302634.jpg\" height=\"424\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Jurgen Klopp says there were positives to take despite Liverpool being held to a draw<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/17\/20\/79062031-12874499-image-a-4_1702844333002.jpg\" height=\"470\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Liverpool had many opportunities but found it very difficult to break United down<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube, Apple Music and Spotify.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/pix\/2017\/08\/02\/636x90_facebook_ad_sport.png\" width=\"636\" height=\"90\"><br \/>\nSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12874499\/Jurgen-Klopp-Liverpool-Manchester-United-7-0-win.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag admits he is very proud of his team following their hard-earned point in goalless<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":297227,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
