so giggs not kicking it out wasn't lucky?

they didn't earn the goal

 

He should have kicked it out, but he didn't. Macherano should have watched Tevez for the first goal but he didn't, was that luck on Man Utd's behalf? We earned the goal, just look at the stats:

You weren't in it, at all

 

and then you get the luckiest goal EVER

 

and then you score another lucky goal

 

Liverpool fans are the bitter ones, f***ing murderers.

According to the official stats. Van Der Sar made 7 saves, Reina saved one. I didn't see the game, but from looking at the stats and reading about the game it's quite obvious you're wrong, although the way you've always spoken would suggest you've never once been wrong in your life... :rolleyes:

Derby won! :(

 

Chelsea won, too! :cheer:

I haven't

 

if you watch the highlights, you'd see it wasn't how 'class' Liverpool

it was mediocre Manchester United

major difference

Arsenal officially have the best defence in the league.

I thought we were absolute class. You got the early goal and then just sat back, your players just went missing. Man Utd did look very ordinary, but that was because Liverpool just ran the game from midfield. It was made easier when Carrick went off, but Mascherano and Alonso just controlled the midfield. Riera gave Liverpool a completely new edge I thought, it allowed the fullbacks (especially Auerllio) to get into more attacking positions and know that if they mess up, they've got two holding players ready to stop the Man Utd attack.

 

Every player was excellent for Liverpool today. We've been below-par so far this season, but today we stepped it up into 5th gear and completely ran Man Utd off the park. It's stupid to write Man Utd off this early in the season, but I think you've got problems. I reckon it'll be the last we'll see as Berbatov, Rooney and Tevez all starting the game for a while. Fergie just got his tactics wrong.

Derby won! :(

 

Chelsea won, too! :cheer:

How comes you wanted Chelsea to win??

Does it matter which way it was? Either way they outplayed you...

How comes you wanted Chelsea to win??

Because they aren't Man Utd or Liverpool. (and to a lesser extent Arsenal). They're my favourite big 4 team and generally always were. When Forest got relegated Chelsea became my Premiership team of choice as I loved players like Zola and Di Matteo. Even now I still quite like them...

mate, i'm from Salford

and where you from GH?

Face facts, like all great managers who hang on too long (Clough, Busby, Jock Stein) I'm really starting to wonder if Fergie is going the same way.

Oh dear, oh dear.. you beat us on a day when we were appalling and you think of outlandish statements like that?

 

Riera has solved half your problem, yes but I can assure that statement shall come to haunt you by the end of the season ;)

I think Riera has solved the biggest problem we had, which is that he lacked someone in the squad who could run down the wing and put in some decent crosses (although he didn't do that too much yesterday). He allows the full-backs to get forward which is great, and I thought Aurellio was fantastic yesterday, especially when he went to attack. Riera and Babel tore Wes Brown to pieces yesterday, and they made him look like the average player he is. I genuinely believe too that Babel can become one of the best players in the world in a few years time as long as he works on his first touch.

 

It'd be stupid to write Man Utd off this early, but like I said earlier, Fergie must be majorly pissed that all of his squad (bar maybe Ferdinand) went missing in one of the biggest games of the season...

lol @ Hughes saying chelsea-city is the biggest game in English football

Shame Everton won. Would've liked a draw and then Spurs win tomorrow to see Wigan in 10th to be only off the bottom by virtue of their superior goal difference. :lol:

*rekindles back to life*

 

CHELSEA V UNITED :w00t:

 

Also amazing result for Stoke yesterday :wub:

Chelsea vs Utd games = borefests :( + petulent behaviour

I'm with Matt Aloud. Wear-Tees derbies are the place to be :funky:

indeed :P Revenge will be ours :funky:

I'm forgetting about football until Tuesday. I saw the worst game i've ever seen for a long time, with the worst referee i've ever seen (and trust me, in the Blue Square Prem this takes some doing), then I got home to see Liverpool still haven't learned from their errors, and how to break teams down that are happy to sit with 10 men behind the ball. :( Thank God the Chelsea vs Man Utd game was a draw.
