Paul Scholes has admitted watching Manchester United succumb to a 4-0 defeat at the hands of Liverpool left him feeling 'saddened' as opposed to angered at the full-time whistle.
The Red Devils were passengers for much of the game at Anfield and found themselves a goal down inside five minutes after Luis Diaz opened the scoring. Things only got worse for the visitors as the contest continued, with a further three goals added before the full-time whistle.
This was a performance lacking any kind of spirit and desire from United, who were second-best in every department and laid bare the gulf in class that now exists between the two teams. Ralf Rangnick's side now sit 22 points adrift of Liverpool, having played a game more, and are a shadow of their former selves.
