Basically sums it up for me too
Vidic deserved to go - but ref was giving away stupid free kicks at times
I've said nothing about winning the league. I didn't think we'd do it and I still don't. United and Chelski will be top of the pile when it matters, I'm realistic enough to realise that.
both liverpool goals down to silly errors. vds was all over the place today, what the hell was that dive he was doing for the wb own goal?
And giggs should have put that straight out instead of trying to be clever.
Not sure whats wrong with rooney, doesnt seem to be with it recently, other than the england game.

Frank did you watch the match or listened to it on the radio?
I feel all is not lost if Fergie fixes up the team, still think we can beat Chelsea if we get our winning mentality back on, we got very lucky last year to win the league, we can't afford to be making these mistakes and expect to win the league!
Ok we are going to have to agree to disagree. Every 50/50 bar the two deserved yellows on Vidic went Liverpools way
Not a very good performance at all and we gifted Liverpool both goals. Before the match I was quite excited looking at the team but a few points can be made about it now:
-Scholes shouldn't play in these hectic away games, he is simply too slow. Fletcher or Hargreaves should have started instead.
-If Berbatov is going to play we need to drop Tevez or Rooney, simple. This will be made easier once Ronaldo is back.
-Carrick needs to not get injured for once
Well done Liverpool you were the better team today.

Liverpool deserved it tbh. United just dont look to be playing normally.
I think you were watching another game to be honest. I thought MU were superb in the first 20 minutes and the game could have been over before half time. However Liverpool came back into it and made it an interesting game of footy. Lots of mistakes, nerves, etc. but I felt that we deserved to win. The ref wasn't great - hell when he took down Keane he could have been off but Ferdinand was covering (so it would have been harsh). However it was a blatant second yellow and he had to go.
I'd say the ref was very 50/50 he gave you some stupid things and he gave us some stupid things, he was very event. At least we didn't score a goal and have it waved as play on like other teams against MU - I certainly think MU have had more than there fair share of fortunate refereeing in the past.
Edit: Thought Riera did really well. Babbel was okay when he came on. Mascherano was a rock at the back but did give the ball way to easily. Alonso - well I'd keep him instead of buying Barry.

Scousers played well second half, utd started well then sat back, scholes should not start games in midfield anymore, vds had an awful game. Our midfield looked very poor without Carrick, anyone know what he has done? my money is on broken metertarsel...
Utd bounce back with a nice easy game next week in the league without our best defender
Can scousers hold onto top spot? we shall wait and see....

He said Vidic's yellows were fair.

What a horrible formation by Man U today, completely based around accommodating Berbatov. What's Fergie gonna do when Ronaldo is back? Someone will have to be benched.
Fair play to Liverpool, not seen a team dominate a half against Man U as much as they did in the 2nd period.

Vidic can't have any complaints with the ref for the sending off, just the team, he was forced to make his first challenge, he had to do something. His second was a stupid thing to do, but he was angry and rushing to get forward, understandably.
In that case i apologize.
But i still dont think he is ****... You just dont get his kind of goalscoring record by being a bad player, he just maybe isnt as good as i thought. (Tbf, i never really watched much of him, most likely only caught his best bits.)
I think you'll find that I have said the same and agree. As have other United fans.
We were **** and Liverpool were better, simple as.
