This Liverpool team 87/88 were quite phenomenal in my opinion. I will always maintain that they would have won the European cup the following season if it were not for the ban. The 85/86 team were also light years ahead of anyone else in the the top flight back then.
I was there for this one, Man Utd always had the Indian sign on us , always ragged it, but great days, proper mans game, ace atmosphere, standing on the kop, great punch ups, rough pitches. Happy days
I was in the United end in the corner. At 3-1 down I says "we'll get a draw". We did. One of my finest days out at the football ever, with two lifelong pals all 15/16 I'll never forget it
That was a fabulous Liverpool side and I'm a United fan for my sins. Barnes and Beardsley were a joy to watch. The 5-0 hammering of Notts Forest was brilliant stuff - fast, direct, skillful , incisive and effective. Forget this tippy tappy yawn ball that Man City play.
Was at this terrific game and in the previous seven seasons Utd had remained unbeaten at Anfield in the league so when Liverpool went 3-1 up in the second half and playing against ten men I felt this had to be the day that run came to an end but Utd were Liverpools bogey side since the cup final of 77 and came back it was the beginning of that Fergie never give up attitude just look at the first Utd goal when the ball was crossed into the box there was three United attackers and no Liverpool defenders
I was there and it was a game I'll never forget. All around me were screaming as Robson got done twice in the first half. Was that the slightest of reflections for Mcmahons goal as opposed to the mad one for Robsons goal?
Yeah, but you never knew which United would turn up back then as too many draws and silly losses dogged them constantly. Were always up for the big games and probably why they were more successful in cup competitions back then.
Speaking as a long suffering Spurs fan(with 2 older Brothers who back United) this was Football! .Liverpool were the dominant force&Man U were a massive Org trying to rediscover their Glory days! .But the quality of football,passion,commitment,atmosphere made for a fantastic spectacle for the fans. it was alike "Saturday Religion"as opposed to today's sterile pretentious "Reality TV" football!. So full respect👍🎄☘️ to all of those old "Manc".and "Scouser" fans out there!👍
That was a superb Liverpool side and very few teams on the planet could've done what United did that afternoon, coming from 3-1 down to get a draw with 10 men.
The best was Strachan celebrating in front of the most knowledgeable- fair minded supporters in the country. Great performance from Utd second half. What a talent Olsen was - just too inconsistent. Fergie still had another five years from this to get it right. Can you imagine Ten Hag getting nearly seven years to win the title?
@@sultycheung1791 yes it seems they where both born in liverpool Newport must of had a good youth system with liverpool back in the day ! We had the best years of john thought he could of had another year ! When we sold him he only played 2 seasons for liverpool then sold on to Spain
Used to LOVE the manor ground even though every side I went there to cheer on got battered. Miss it badly I met big Kev near there in a pub, Kevin Francis, Stockport County legend.
We couldn't do much with United during this era and they always raised their game for matches against us. So much so that they'd risk Bryan Robson and on a few occasions, he'd get injured. The only saving grace was that we won a few pots at this time. Should've done the double this year but got bullied by Wimbledon in the cup final.
Different offside rules in those days I'm afraid, if any of your players was in a offside position it was offside, regardless if they were interfering with play or not.
I thought that too. Nicol was miles onside. I can only think another player might have been off - the rules were different then. But Nicol was clearly on
Putting blame to one side, the 88-90 sides i believe would have won the European cup at least once of those 3 seasons. Now if hillsborough didnt happen, the 89 League never goes to down to the crazy 5 games in 11 days or whatever it was. Arsenals Anfield 89 was magnificent for them yes but it was a crazy decision to hold the biggest game of the season on a Friday evening following the Tuesday night match Between Liverpool and West Ham. Before that it was a crammed few games in a week also. They could of easily held it the following day.
Scotish player like gordan strachan..& brian mclair ..give extra cutting edge ..team like my man utd is always put a lot of fight in anfield not eazy place to get resulat ..man utd never give up ..glory glory.days coming again..🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽
Neil Webb and davenport gr8 talents at forest but didn't quite gell at United. Makes you think that clough he could always find talent and then a giant would come along and buy them while clough ie made a profit. Nigel clough Steve hodge des walker Roy keane davenport Webb
Yes and no. Souness did get rid of players who had a lot more to give but there were just as many background machinations and then the foreigner/assimilated players rule that had more of a factor to play in my opinion. I'm a United fan and was delighted to see them fall from that perch, but Liverpool fans could give you a better insight into exactly what, when, how and why but it wasn't solely down to the manager.
Most of your trophies were won in the dinosaur years,pre-1990 😂 20 league titles to 19 is one thing but 13 Premier League titles to 1 is evidence of your dinosaur years of success 🤣 66 trophies to 64 in United's favour in terms of overall trophies won 🤣 Most major trophies,Liverpool have that but only for now...

the ban........which was your fault.
red 76 At what point did I say that I was a Liverpool fan?
@@ZeldaFitz ignore the salty prick....of utd had have been at heysel something similar would have happened .....their just as bad as anyone else
Pretty sure Everton won the league either side of that season, light years is a bit of an exaggerration

I was there too. I was on The Kop right behind the McMahon’s goal.
I REMEMBER THIS MATCH, IT WAS SHOWN ON BBC, I LOVED IT WHEN ITV AND THE BBC SHARED THE COVERAGE, GREAT MEMORIES
It was'nt shown live on TV
@@shaka7594 yes I know it was highlights
Highlight of this game was watching Strachan celebrate in front of the cop!
Cigar baby....see the kopite in the background go nuts, haaahaa
The good old days
When we all LOVED FOOTBALL ⚽️❤️
I had two sporting heroes at that time... Daley Thompson and... Bryan Robson. He was driven, each and every game.
Loved watching football in the eighties and early nineties, Liverpool were my team!!
I was in the away end chucking pies at the home fans what a cool goal by Strachan
i was there----when liverpool scored their goals the liverpool supporters came onto the pitch doing aeroplane gestures---scouse bastards
I remember the inflatable skeleton!
Definitely getting my 80's art pamphlets out after watching this.....!!
I was there as a 14 year old lad in the main stand!

Mcmahon was a top midfielder, but Beardsley was sexy to watch
But not a sexy looker!
🤔that’s some pair of rose tinted glasses you must have been wearing😂 never heard Beardsley described as sexy before🤮
Sorry I meant his style of play is sexy, way he moves is something clever player

The crowd reaction at that Gillespie goal was amazing
Amazing Liverpool team but in the 80s it read P 20 W2 L8 D10 . United always turned up.

@@yknot8029 fair point. United were a bit brittle.

When football was best nobody rolling about after been tackled unlike in today game 🙄

Ahhhhhhh - remember when most players played for the badge and not the almighty £££££££££
League Title winners:
1985: Everton
1986: Liverpool
1987: Everton
1988: Liverpool
1989: Arsenal
1990: Liverpool
Kop was boss then.
And Klopp is boss now.
🤔Kop was gutted at the end of that match😂
Classic game YNWA
Thanks for uploading. How good were Barnes' crosses from corners and set pieces? So accurate.
As a oxford utd fan was gutted to see Aldridge and Houghton leave! But we had no choice we will always be a feeder club
Yes, Newport had to sell it's best to assets, Aldridge to Liverpool and Tommy Tynan to Plymouth. Tynan was the better poacher.
@@sultycheung1791 yes it seems they where both born in liverpool Newport must of had a good youth system with liverpool back in the day ! We had the best years of john thought he could of had another year ! When we sold him he only played 2 seasons for liverpool then sold on to Spain
Used to LOVE the manor ground even though every side I went there to cheer on got battered. Miss it badly
I met big Kev near there in a pub, Kevin Francis, Stockport County legend.
Wasn't there some argy-bargy between Dalglish and Ferguson after the game? I seem to remember reading in the paper the two exchanged some harsh words.
Love how McMahon's screamer was almost identical to the one he scored against Everton a year earlier.
We couldn't do much with United during this era and they always raised their game for matches against us. So much so that they'd risk Bryan Robson and on a few occasions, he'd get injured.
The only saving grace was that we won a few pots at this time.
Should've done the double this year but got bullied by Wimbledon in the cup final.
Bullied? WTF are you talking about?
Ye Wimbledon kinda got under there skin that day an got a very unlikely win
And not forgetting the mighty MUFC stopping Liverfool doing the treble in 77 as we were saving that great glory for ourselves in 1999👌
Beardsley crosses the ball 8:50 and Steve nicol was given offside oooohhhhh
Myyyyy
God.
Nicol is miles Miles miles ONSIDE.
Omg
Different offside rules in those days I'm afraid, if any of your players was in a offside position it was offside, regardless if they were interfering with play or not.
I was there and thought exactly that..
I thought that too. Nicol was miles onside. I can only think another player might have been off - the rules were different then. But Nicol was clearly on
Absolute shambles- nikol
Nichol looked onside
Miles onside. but back then you could be flagged offside even if not interfering with play so it was probably somebody else.
Amazing goals by the reds.
Big Norman banged McMahon and Liverpool fell apart. Legend.
What do you mean Mcmahon fell apart?...hmmm?...i think you need footballing educating
who likes short shorts?
Jared Standley John Barnes.
Me
John Barnes had a quiet game hardly touched the ball.....

Would have been some atmosphere at this
Look at the defending from Hansen on the first goal. Ha
Colin Gibson, ffs
safety in numbers going there in the 80,s
united til i die
Lively days mate....some good memories utd always had a good away following fair play to ya....
What did you expect after Heysel?
Wow that was a great watch.
Kits were a were awesome.
Robson was a beast.
Aldridge was never scoring was he?
Chris turner was far too small to be a keeper.
Neil Webb and davenport gr8 talents at forest but didn't quite gell at United.
Makes you think that clough he could always find talent and then a giant would come along and buy them while clough ie made a profit. Nigel clough Steve hodge des walker Roy keane davenport Webb
Was at this game and apart from a fat bloke getting his very young son to shout Munich I never saw much aggro and went in with only 1 other.
Souness made terrible decisions and helped Ferguson knock Liverpool off their perch.
all clubs make bad decisions just cant be top forever
Yes and no.

Who would of known sir Alex was goin knock the bottom feeders right of there fukin perch for next twenty years and a prober treble frown in aswell
Forward it to 8:50 and Steve nicol was given offside
Omg HOW ?
IT SENT SHIVER DOWN MY SPINE ..
Great LFC performance against the scums
Great🤔???
You were at home you dimbo and lost a 3-1 lead to share the points😂
Prime 80s Liverpool fail to beat Manchester United 😂 Sir Alex was already moulding United to become the most successful team in English football 😁
But times have now changed pal.. 😉
Back on our perch - Champions !!
Wow that's your new standard of low,you call winning one title in 30 years being back on your perch,your little garden perch 🤣
@@aik321 Liverpool FC - England's most decorated club !! Man.U fans fuuuuuuuuming hahaha
Most of your trophies were won in the dinosaur years,pre-1990 😂 20 league titles to 19 is one thing but 13 Premier League titles to 1 is evidence of your dinosaur years of success 🤣 66 trophies to 64 in United's favour in terms of overall trophies won 🤣 Most major trophies,Liverpool have that but only for now...
