Manchester United have been heavily criticised by former Liverpool star Jan Molby , as the playmaker adds fuel to fire ahead of the crucial clash in the race for the Champions League places . The ex-Danish international is very much a favourite at his former employers and was keen to play up Liverpool 's chances of pipping United to fourth . Molby gave a scathing review on Louis van Gaal 's side and has described their position in the Champions League places as a 'miracle . ' Jan Molby labelled Manchester United as 'clueless ' and thinks it 's a 'miracle ' where they are in the table . He told the Daily Star : ' I 've seen a lot of United 's matches this season and I find it quite amazing they are in the top four . The best way of describing them is clueless . ' I look at United and see weaknesses . If we move the ball at pace and put them under pressure from the start then we will cause them a lot of problems . 'Considering the talent they have available , they just have n't performed . Louis van Gaal and Wayne Rooney wo n't be pleased with Molby 's comments ahead of the clash . 'But having an excellent keeper and not conceding many goals has enabled them to paper over the cracks and win games narrowly . 'The fact they are fourth is a minor miracle . Their performances just have n't merited a top-four place . 'They are n't in the best four teams in the Premier League and Liverpool are in much better shape . ' Liverpool are the in-form team in the Premier League with the Champions League places in their sights .
