What makes you say that? That I can recognise somebody who is yet to fulfill the potential he was touted for? Anyway, please play nice eh podge.

Who is the better team so far?

mike65

Rio should try that more often.

Great Yossi stinks.

Liverpool are on top as much as any side is, better chances to open the scoring.

Glico Man

David Pleat really is useless, talking about flying saucers??

Captain Furball

Torres is the better team so far i'd say.

Liverpool definitely on top in the first third of the game.
United really need to calm things down, but Torres and Kuyt are putting our back 4 under fierce pressure.
Rooney and Berbatov being marked out of it (for the most part) up front.

Evra better be careful too.

Replace the word "third" with "half" and I think my post still sums things up.

Never, fifties I would say.

Things are heating up!

Lucas should be booked at this stage considering Berba and Evra have been booked.

That ref hasn't a clue!! He's gonna lose control of this match

flahavaj

United playing sh*t.

mike65

Neither team happy with the ref (a good sign)

boxing analogy i guess

Liverpool are pressing very well all over the pitch. United are only getting a look in when they shift the ball very quickly before Liverpool get their two banks of four back in place.

I don't think utd are playing shít, I just think L'pool are playing ever so slightly better.

The Muppet

Liverpool with the better chances first half, United had better up their performance for ths second half.

Really?

He did catch his own leg on a run through but I cannot think of him diving any time apart from that (if you chose to include it).

Liverpool had the better of that half, but Valencia is looking dangerous and as long as we can keep the clumbsey challenges to a minimum we can pinch it.

Its not that outlandish a statement to be fair.

mike65

Is this going to be one of those half times?

So you've watched that first half and the main thing you've taken from it is Torres' 'blantant diving'????

You're like the presenters of Most Haunted or the Olympic officials doing gender tests on that South African athlete! Searching for something that isn't there!!

I wouldn't go as far as to say playing shìt. Rooney and Berba linking up well but it's all very isolated and we have generated very little quality possession imo. Carrick is adding very little to our build up play, just firing forward a few long balls, doesn't have the ability to get the ball down and play. Things could well get worse as Scholes tires.

Johner

Torres isnt diving.

And no im not a Liverpool fan.

Insect Overlord

Torres isn't diving, but he is going down at the slightest bit of contact. Just like a certain number 7 used to do for United. It's a continental thing.

MagicMarker

Berbatov not having a great game.

that's getting a bit tiring.

i'm not his biggest fan, but he hasn't had much service today.

when he has lovley control drag back and great ball which rooney didn't bother busting a gut to get on the end of.

what has he done wrong exactly or is it just berba bashing for the sake of it?

MagicMarker

The sound of those camera shutters in the background really beginning to piss me off!

Yeah, there's nothing I love more.

I don't know what game you're watching, but he's had plenty of the ball and done sweet FA with it.

Sully

Liverpool should be winning this, United are not great at defending the ball and giving it away far to easily. Not much attack either.

pierrot

Evra looks knackered, no?

He keeps on giving the ball away with bad passes.The one to Valencia there,a pass to O'Shea a while ago and there have been a few others in the game.You can blame the players for not making the runs but he has to take some blame for it.

An average person has 60000 thoughts a day. Most of them are the same thoughts you had yesterday.

Keano

Agreed, it really is all Liverpool.
