Manchester United Humiliate Liverpool on Transfer Deadline Day
Manchester United has just humiliated Liverpool on the final day of the transfer window as they near a deal to sign Marcel Sabitzer.
The Red Devils have signed Sabitzer on loan from Bayern Munich, just hours after learning that Christian Eriksen would be out until April with an ankle injury.
The Athletic reports that Bayern Munich’s No. 18 is flying to England to undergo a medical with Manchester United as Erik ten Hag searches for an immediate replacement for Christian Eriksen.
In this area, Manchester United has humiliated Liverpool.
Jürgen Klopp has been forced to play the likes of Stefan Bajcetic, Curtis Jones, Jordan Henderson, and James Milner due to injuries in his midfield throughout the entire season.
Despite this, Liverpool have been inactive in the transfer market, despite the fact that decent players like Sabitzer have been available and ready to provide short-term relief.
After learning the severity of Eriksen’s injury, which was caused by Andy Carroll’s poor challenge in the FA Cup victory over Reading, a major club should act swiftly to replace him.
Having been referred to as the kings of the transfer market for years during Michael Edwards’ tenure as Director of Football at Anfield, Liverpool are currently regressing in terms of recruitment.
We cannot fathom why Liverpool did not compete with Manchester United for Sabitzer’s signature.
The Austrian international appears to be the ideal player for Jurgen Klopp, having learned his trade at the highest level with Julian Nagelsmann’s high-pressing RB Leipzig squad.
Liverpool’s lack of midfield depth was exposed significantly in their 2-1 FA Cup loss to Brighton, when Klopp’s substitutions of Milner, Henderson, and Jones, who lacked intensity, destroyed the team’s hold on the game.
No one should be surprised if Manchester United finishes ahead of Liverpool in the Premier League this season, given Liverpool’s lackadaisical approach to recruitment.
