If Sir Jim Ratcliffe is still pondering a final decision on the future of Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag, he will be none the wiser after his visit to Old Trafford to watch another chaotic meeting with Liverpool.
The club's new billionaire co-owner fought his way through the rain and winds of Storm Kathleen to take his seat, then watched as Liverpool threatened to blow away everything in their path in a remarkable first half.
Liverpool's 1-0 interval advantage, courtesy of a Luis Diaz goal, came at the end of a first half in which Jurgen Klopp's side led the shots count by 15 to none.
