Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho believes David David De Gea could have prevented two of Liverpool's goals in Sunday's 3-1 bashing at Anfield.
According to The Mirror report, the Portuguese tactician insists the Spaniard shot-stopper De Gea, would have stopped Xherdan Shaqiri's deflected strike as the Reds claimed all points.
Also, Shaqiri's first goal needed an Ashley Young touch, while his second goal diverted past De Gea off Eric Bailly.
"Liverpool are the strong team, but it's hard to concede two goals in the moment we conceded and the way the goals happened.
"Our difficult moment was the first 20 minutes. We couldn't cope with their fantastic intensity and pressing, but then we were quite calm and it was controlled.
"They became really frustrated when their centre-backs came forwards and fired shots into the stands - that was the period when it was more in control. We felt we could win, even a little bit undeservedly.
"David is saying in the dressing room two easy balls for him, and because of the rebounds [deflections] he had no chance.
"If you want to speak about fortunate you speak their second and third goals," Mourinho was quoted as saying by Sky Sports.
