Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [14th - 19th October 2011]

De Gea needs a better presence in the box, crosses into the 6 yard box always look so dodgy, particularly from corners.

 

[TheCenturion]

Come on Pool, stop beating about the bush

 

[utajoker]

after the team we started with i will take a draw

 

[squerble]

Need to finish these chances

Final whistle, 1-1. Sounded like we should have won.

 

[Rotty]

dissapointed with the result but some good performances

 

[Loki]

Will take 1-1.

Crazy 15 minutes around the two goals, other than that a dull dull game

 

[Ripper]

Crap. Rubbish team selection, non existant midfield.

 

[Mr.Pink]

Utd very, very lucky to get a point.

 

[Bucket]

I'll take a draw after that terrible first half, some fantastic saves by De Gea and Liverpool didn't capitalise on us being poor in the main.

 

[syke]

Good finish to the game, Liverpool goal was more of a dive by Adam though. Giggs pulling away from the wall, looked like a girl

 

[Nate75]

5 live "by Man U standards, aweful"

"and Liverpool couldn't win"

 

[TheCenturion]

Can't believe King Kenny didn't bring on Carroll

 

[Jono8]

not a terrible result to get at Anfield . I'll take that and im sure Sir Alex will as well.

 

[Tom84]

Draw the fair result neither team did enough to win it

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Can't believe King Kenny didn't bring on Carroll

Agree. Our crossing improved tenfold in the second half and his head could've made the difference.

Kelly, Enrique and Smalling the stand out players for me.

 

[Adrianr]

Henderson should have buried that last header, great shot/save before hand though. Whole game was a battle of mediocrity though. Rubbish from both sides. United could have taken that game with a full strength squad.

 

[Purdy]

Do you not get a yellow card for inciting fans and waving imaginary yellow cards?

Ah well, should have won it with plenty of chances and some decent performances.

 

[mmj_uk]

Good point for Man Utd on the balance of play, where was that Liverpool team against Tottenham and Everton though? they played brilliantly today never gave Man Utd any time on the ball.

 

[carlazai]

Great game to watch, even enjoyed the cagey 1st half! Liverpool deserved 3 points but always going to be tough with a rather ropey defence.

Honestly i don't think overall we pressed that much, united just seemed to hoof it a lot and hope for the best. Certainly was a tad better than the spurs performance though

EDIT: Oh yeah, well done De Gea, gets rather boring the hype they build on him going to fail under the pressure in big games, some decent saves.
