In response to that view Cassidy described Gallagher as “the Comical Ali of the refereeing world." If he had caught that assistant in the mouth he was looking at a 12-match ban. They have all the evidence in front of them to send a real strong message across all football that touching a match official in this way is totally unacceptable. You want to prevent things happening but we can’t make a big thing of Fernandes pushing out at him when has actually received it himself. But asked if the assistant referee was merely trying to keep the peace between Fernandes and Alexander-Arnold, Gallagher added: “Maybe so but I don’t think it’s wise. We’re talking about a world class official being pushed in the back here.

'Full hairdryer treatment': Man Utd boss' brutal spray after record rout as ice-cold move revealed.

‘It was the full hairdryer treatment. “Our insider said: ‘Ten Hag was livid. “We have a duty to this club, a responsibility to represent the badge, but we have many opportunities to look ahead, many games coming fast and we have to lock our focus on these.” [Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/12827268/how-erik-ten-hag-gave-manchester-united-dressing-down-after-liverpool-humiliation-at-anfield): “The message he shared to the squad was peppered with more colourful language that can’t be repeated, which translated to “a disgrace.”” [The Mirror ](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/ten-hag-man-utd-punishment-29386415)wrote: “A United source said: ‘Ten Hag was obviously furious and told them they were lucky to be getting on the team bus back to Old Trafford and not made to travel back with the fans.

[The Sun](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/21609643/erik-ten-hag-man-utd-hairdryer/), Ten Hag was understandably “the angriest he’s ever been”.

Whoever he is impersonating, he looks set to be the perfect figure for Klopp as the painful but exciting process of regeneration continues apace. Once in a while, the mind drifts to the question of what Coutinho must think when watching Liverpool these days. Liverpool replaced him long ago, or at least found a way to evolve the team beyond him. A whole host of legends of the game are not wrong: there is truly something special about this ground, this fan base, and this club. But recognizing the spell Anfield can cast is the first step to trying to combat it, and Ten Hag set himself up for failure. Since then, everything has gone wrong for Coutinho, who now finds himself on the periphery at Aston Villa. The Manchester United boss has been doing a stellar job this season, and has turned a drifting mess of a team into a bona fide top-four side again. We have to play and make it our game." But Ten Hag made a rookie mistake before he took his team to Anfield for the first time. By the end of the evening, it was Guardiola's verdict that had been proved emphatically correct. But it is a rivalry marked by respect first and foremost, with the Catalan having praised his opposite number many times. Philippe Coutinho and Pep Guardiola were not exactly at the forefront of Liverpool minds as fans witnessed an historic triumph over Manchester United.
