Stan Collymore slates Jose Mourinho and Graeme Souness for claiming Liverpool have problems with teams that defend deep

Liverpool were five minutes away from suffering their first Premier League loss of the season at the hands of bitter rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday.

The hosts secured the lead 36 minutes into the game through Marcus Rashford, and were minutes away from getting a big win until Adam Lallana’s 85th-minute leveler.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp wasn’t particularly pleased with United, slamming Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side for their defensive approach towards the game.

The Red Devils had just 32% of the possession, but it didn’t count for much for the visitors who only had three more shots.
