Hello, this is international football commentator Derek Ray, and you're welcome to Rank's FC.

This is another excerpt from our Monday Patreon Postbox, which goes out first thing every week, looking at all the weekends action and answering questions from our brilliant Patreon

community.

We started this episode talking about the big game at the weekend.

Manchester United beating Liverpool for three in the FA Cup after extra time.

And what that might mean for Eric Tenhaug, his job and for United going forward this

season. Let's get stuck into it. Things are also good for Manchester United, which is where we're

going to start. They beat Liverpool for three after extra time at Old Trafford in the FA Cup,

booking themselves a trip to Wembley and a spot in the semi-finals.

There haven't been all that many brilliant days for Eric Ten Hogg this season.

This was fundamentally one of them.

And we're going to start with a couple of takes.

Then we're going to discuss those ones and move on to some others.

So we'll start with Natan, who says,

that game might be the perfect counter argument to Dean asking for extra time to be scrapped.

An awesome 120 minutes, which tilted and tilted again.

Diego Dala and Carnacho were immense and never stopped running,

no matter the score, all the position they were asked to play.

Cobi Mayno is a gem and Rashford deserves all the flowers. Sorry to my scousers,

Klop's dream farewell tour is cancelled for now. Mark Wilson says, are the Reds? What a match,

an F-A Cup classic. It might not have been the most tactically great performance from United,

but this team showed there's still fight and quality in it.
