Liverpool maintained their perfect start under new manager Arne Slot with a commanding 3-0 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford.
The win not only showcased Liverpool’s dominance but also intensified scrutiny on United’s manager Erik ten Hag, who recently secured a new contract despite a tumultuous summer.
From the outset, the away team displayed a level of intensity that left United struggling to keep up. Trent Alexander-Arnold had an early goal disallowed for offside, but it wasn’t long before Luis Diaz put Liverpool in front.
The Colombian forward scored twice just before halftime, capitalising on defensive errors from United’s Casemiro. Diaz first headed home a cross from Mohamed Salah in the 35th minute before sweeping in another pass from Salah just seven minutes later.
Salah himself added to the scoreline in the 56th minute, netting his 12th goal in 15 appearances against United after receiving a precise pass from Dominik Szoboszlai.
Despite some opportunities for United, particularly through Joshua Zirkzee, Liverpool’s defense remained largely untroubled throughout the match.
This victory marks Liverpool’s third consecutive Premier League win without conceding a goal since Slot took over from Jurgen Klopp.
The performance was a stark contrast to that of United, who have now faced significant criticism following their disappointing start to the season.
The defeat raises questions about Ten Hag’s tactics and the team’s overall identity as they struggle to find form.
As the Reds continues to build momentum under Slot, the focus will shift to their next fixtures, while United must regroup and address their shortcomings before the upcoming international break.
