Chin up. Anything can happen and I won't be disappointed because we never had a chance once that penalty was given. It had nothing to do with tactics or manpower.

The referee cost us the match IF we don't turn this around or salvage a draw at the very least.

47 United play it around on the edge of the area, Berbatov to Nani, cross is dangerous and hendandez gets a good head to it and it's just wide of the post. Bad start by us, united looking to put in another one

kkhaku comments:

"Both the decisions were fine if you ask me. They're only controversial due to the nature of the match. You see these things called all the time. Minimal contact combined with embellishment leading to a PK. The bad decision was Agger's for sticking his foot in like that. The same goes for Gerrard. Two footed lunge. You take the man and the ball and you're likely to get a red. ANY ref would seriously think about a red card.

Howard Webb's a twat, but we're the ones who've given him a chance to be one."

I disagree. Does it mean a defender is not allowed to try to nick the ball away or to block the ball? You watch the replays and Agger tries to nick the ball but misses it and pulls his leg bag. Berbatov carries on and then goes down untouched.

My question. WHAT WAS THE LINESMAN DOING? He had a perfect view of the dive.

50 it's all united at the start of the 2nd. Cross comes in from Giggs through everyone and Aurelio mistakenly chests it back to Reina, he didn't know much about that one

Wow Aurelio was cold as ice there heading back.

Mad Men · « **Reply #125 on:** January 9, 2011, 02:44:12 pm »

5 minutes into the second half..its all Man U at the moment.

Chakan · « **Reply #126 on:** January 9, 2011, 02:45:15 pm »

52 too many misplaced passes from liverpool, giving the ball away cheaply and united are on the front foot with Giggs, Kelly deals with the danger and liverpool play it out through Raul and Torres, but the move breaks down

Meireles having a shocker today....

He needs to play himself in more, seems to be chasing the game instead of running it.

Mad Men · « **Reply #128 on:** January 9, 2011, 02:46:01 pm »

Liverpool haven't had much possession. Man U dictating the match at the moment and dominating midfield and possession.

Chakan · « **Reply #129 on:** January 9, 2011, 02:46:52 pm »

54 Aurelio plays the ball out to no-one in particular and united have the ball back Nani on the right with the cross Berbatov is offside in the box and Reina clears

Torres song rings out!! babel warming up

Shout out to young (yet somehow 3 days older than me) for looking solid. The future of Liverpool's defence no doubt in my mind there.

Mad Men · « **Reply #132 on:** January 9, 2011, 02:48:35 pm »

Just a reminder, Martin Tyler and Stewart Robson (West Ham) are commentating if you are following the match on SKY and SKY HD.

Ryan Babel is coming on. He does not appear to have his iphone with him and has signed out of his tweeter account.

Babel stripped off, Kenny having a chat with Shelvey too. Babel for Maxi, Shelvey for Meireles?

Possible as well. Raul not having a good game. Something need s to change

Everytime they pan over the LFC bench I can't help but grin.

58 Maxi with a cross to Kuyt who heads it down for Torres shot is blocked though and out for a throw

His ankle (?) still seems to be bothering him. Obviously not ready for the game, but I'd rather take him in a wheelchair than Poulsen.

59 Skrtel with a shocker of a pace sends united away on the break and it's 4 vs 3 but Kelly does well to stop play and liverpool get back in numbers. Sub is made, Ryan Babel on and Maxi off, Shelvy on and Raul is off!

Mad Men · « **Reply #139 on:** January 9, 2011, 02:53:06 pm »

Babel going on the left..Shelvy alongside Lucas....

Mad Men · « **Reply #143 on:** January 9, 2011, 02:54:17 pm »

Liverpool looking purposeful..Shelvy and Babel adding pace and penetration into this Liverpool side...remember, Shelvy has experince playing for Charlton as a teenager in the first team down in the Championship so he is used to playing high tempo, competitive/combatative match's...

That's what I would think, possibly saving him for later matches this week. Didn't do much in the game so far though

Was never going in but I like that he tried. Moving, wanting the ball and a clear intent of attack.

Mad Men · « **Reply #147 on:** January 9, 2011, 02:55:23 pm »

62:00 As predictable as it is, Man U take off Fletcher and bring on their live wire Anderson.

I'm pleased to see the defensive display so far. Good and solid, not too many headless chicken moments. Kelly has impressed.

Skrtel looks a bit shaky to me though. Kelly has been pretty good against Giggs

Quote from: amir87 on January 9, 2011, 02:55:00 pm

Might be completely wrong but I feel we might just see the best of Ryan Babel under King Kenny's reign.

Only time will tell

Shelvey with a HUGE vote of confidence ahead of Poulsen there. I think the ~~great~~ shit Dane's days are numbered here.

Yup good to see!

64 Anderson gives the ball away and torres is off and Anderson takes him out just before the shot! Freekick on the edge of the area , Aurelio over it! It;s a great freekick!! Heading for the top corner, but a good save Kuschack sends it out for a corner

Both produce an alarming amount of shit.

Yellow card for Anderson for that foul on Torres.

Let's hope Babel can make an impact here, and that Lucas can still be a nuisance in midfield

Not out of this by a long shot!

Welome To The Pepe Reina Show

Chakan · « **Reply #156 on:** January 9, 2011, 03:01:40 pm »

68 Some pinball on the edge of the liverpool box and Berbatov tries to nick it around Reina but he is alive to the danger and cleared out, a crazy bit of play Reina with 4 consecutive saves keeping giggs then berbatov then berbatov again out! Finally the shot from Hernandez is tipped over for a corner

Aristotle · « **Reply #157 on:** January 9, 2011, 03:02:09 pm »

Well done Kelly vs. Hernandez and than I hit a lag spike but Berbatov somehow was in the box and Reina saved magically.

That's followed by a bombardment on the LFC goal, Reina really the man on form.

Anderson looking a little wound up, and he's already been booked, let's see if we can't push over the edge.

Great free kick from aurelio, kusczack ( or however you spell it) looks a little shaky

4 minutes on gives away a free kick booked, we need to push his buttons!
