Former Manchester United striker Joe Jordan is heading for the dark old days of the 1970's.
Hated rivals Liverpool are European champions and United are struggling to recapture past glories the same situation Jordan faced during his Old Trafford career.
Jordan told The Sun: Liverpool in that era got it right, not just in the dressing room but in the club structure.
The chairman John Smith and secretary Peter Robinson, they all knew what they were doing.
Liverpool were continuing to do what they had done, add to the team and maintain that consistency, there was a competitiveness in the dressing room.
United have some injury issues but, for the money spent they don't have the back-up that is required.
Lukaku will always score goals but Manchester United are looking for something as well as that. But they haven't really replaced him.
Other than replacing, you have got to have competition for places. If you go back into Fergie's era, they sometimes had four strikers.
Manchester United at the moment haven't got that.
Liverpool lost Alisson, who was voted the No1 keeper in Europe. Adrian's come in and they've gone through this run successfully."
