I think Reina's trying to prove why he isnt one of the best keepers in the league

mayordenis

United

similar enough time to when tevez got the goal at anfield?

Daemonic

Reina has looked nervy, couple of dodgy clearances, almost put it in for an OG and then that attempt to get the ball

Stick or twist?

Second yellow card for Mascherano for dissent, deservedly so IMO.

mayordenis

United

a for **** sake stupid ref ruining the game, nando booked for giving out about persistent fouling masch should shut up though.

kaisersose77

No suprise, i was gonna post a few minutes ago that he would get sent off by the end of the match

~Marky~

United

What is Mascherano after doing?? :mad:

Daemonic

Mascherano off, game over :mad:

Daysha

Draw

Absolute stupidity from Mash, he's probably just lost liverpool the match

Royale with Cheese

Can't blame the ref, Mascherano was a f*cking idiot there

mayordenis

United

its not like he's screaming in the refs face he's actually trying to talk, stupid refereeing, it should happen but the rules have to apply the same in every match, john terry should be sent off every match if thats the rule.

mike65

Bennet started this chain of events to a degree with a stupid yellow for the first foul of the game. That does'nt excuse Masch though.

100% agreement
but you could see it coming , he was ranting and raving since the first yellow.

torres was clearly just talking aswell hardly ****ing dissent.

Thanx 4 The Fish

No excuse for that but if it was Gerrard/Rooney/Terry/Lamps I doubt they would have been off. Ref is certainly doing his part for united today.

Nah, Liverpool were being outclassed all over the pitch.

Yeah but after what Cashley did mid week you'd have thought refs now had the power to get tough on this kind of thing. Incredibly stupid from Masch, but then again if it was Ronaldo doing at old trafford I'd tend to think he wouldn't have gone. But Torres had just been booked for it, what did he expect?

mayordenis

United

if we lose this match it won't be because of the sending off.

selpher

Masch off. Damn chelsea players, they're a disgrace... oh wait.

kaisersose77

Mascherano was at it everytime a decision went against Liverpool. He's the last referee you should be doing that against and wont be suprised if he sends off more today. Torres will have to calm down aswell.

Necronomicon

It was so needless though. It was a Liverpool free kick, what was Torres complaining about in the first place? Madness from Mascherano, you could see Alonso trying to restrain him.

Madness aside though, United have really grown into the game and imo deserve to be up going into half time. Reina is having a bit of a bad one.

Roar

Draw

That was stupid from mascherano. but fair play to the referee. if more players were shown yellow cards for shouting and abusing referees, players would stop doing it. it's mascherano's own fault, he has no one to blame but himself

ntlbell

I dont know why we call this a big game anymore it just gets easier and eaiser the pool from 1 to a 11 are just laughable

Masch and Torres are the only two pool players at the races in the first half, add the fact that the ref was giving nothing to the two of them must have really been winding them up. Stupid from Macsh, couldn't expect anything else but as said the two were hardly shouting at the ref.

What did Torres do in the first 45 ? nothing?

what did mach do? miss timed a heap of tackles and got sent off..

smashing.

kaisersose77

Wouldnt be that cocky, Torres and Gerrard could easily score. Didnt take Giggs long to show why he isnt needed.

ah now, they cant be sending off England internationals. it would send out a bad image.

is it just me or did the ball go in off Brown's arm for the goal? or is it just the ****ty stream i'm getting messing up...

mayordenis

United

now did you all see that ****ing replay, terrible reffing. big game, big passion, refs have to understand.

Thanx 4 The Fish

Draw

Yes but you would expect some consistency surely. when it is applied against one team and not another one has to question the referees.

anyway, United have a deserved lead. Reina was awful on a couple of occasions and it cost us. Have it all to do in the second half.

Peyton Manning

Draw

Did Reina not bring his golden gloves today then?

Mikeyt086

Draw

Reina is so dodgey! We need to work him more.

Mascherano might have crippled Liverpool, most refs wouldnt have sent him off but surley EVERYONE knows that Steve Bennett is just a dickhead, i knew after 11mins that Masch was getting sent off.

Aurelio has really impressed me today.

If Chelsea didnt group up on the ref the other night and the media report it, masch be still on the pitch.

big passion? Are you Andy gray?

The ref gave a free kick FOR the pool masch is moaning about something that has nothing to do with him at all.

use the passion to work your feet not your mouth

Andy Gray is right, the ref is a joke. The yellow for Torres was a disgrace. Mash was silly for giving descent, but hardly worth sending him off for it.

I thought it was gonna come to blows :eek:

I think the fact that Mascherano was in Bennets face after every decision led to the sending off.

He was stupid and deserved to go.

He didn't send him off for it.

he gave him a yellow card for it.

unfortunatley masch cant time a boiled egg which means he had two = sending off see the difference?

Poor decision from Bennett there.United deservedly in front but might need to grab a 2nd to make sure.

Yes, because stupidity is a sending off offence :rolleyes:

Fair play to the ref, that's what we need - no nonsense.

Macherano ran about 40 yards to complain to the ref about something that had nothing to do with him.

Stupidity. That's all that can be said, doesn't deserve an ounce of sympathy from anyone and liverpool know it.

Players and Benetiz were fuming not with the ref, but with Mascherano.

I think Benetiz was signalling to the ref that the game was over, we'll pack up and go home now

No but constantly questioning the ref getting up in his face after every single desicion that doesn't go your way surley is?
