A reminder that John Brewin’s report has landed. Thanks for reading this MBM. Nighty night!

He’s then asked if his half-time substitutions were designed to bring more height to the team. “That had nothing to do with it. It was more to bring three fresh ones. At 4-0 I could have changed all eight others as well.” Is Lisandro Martinez’s height an issue? “I don’t think it was the issue that we conceded four goals. I just mentioned, individual mistakes. As a team we are in a difficult process. Of course we expected a different start, but what happened in the past, last season, has been brought into this season, and we have to change that really quickly. We need new players, quality players, and we are working on that. We have to serve higher standards than we did today.” Liverpool up next at Old Trafford on Monday 22.
