Ole Gunnar Solskjaer insists Manchester United weren’t to blame for last weekend’s bore draw at Anfield as they prepare to face Liverpool again in the FA Cup at Old Trafford on Sunday.
United were criticised for being too cautious against a struggling Liverpool who had midfielders Jordan Henderson and Fabinho playing as makeshift centre-backs.
United were more adventurous in the second half of a goalless stalemate, creating late chances for Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba, but were unable to break down a Liverpool side that surrendered it’s 68-game unbeaten run at home in the league to Burnley four days later.
