Right I wasn't going to get into this with you again, but you are actiing like a maniac -would it be better to not have conceded he peno and to have had two players sent off???? If every decision was to the letter of the law today?

Yea, didn't think so, now accept that both teams have got off lightly and enjoy the fact that you are still at 1 - 1 at old trafford, with all signs showing that you could nick a win...

Ehm, that is not set in stone now, is it?

Oooh, we were 1 - 1 at the mighty fortress that is Old Trafford!! I should have been so grateful. The point is that if there is no penalty, there is a strong chance we are still winning the game.

Rubbish. Gerrard is not tracking back and is not doing much in terms of helping out in defence, neither is Maxi. So them coming off would not hinder the defence.

But Aquilani and Yossi are both good at working back as well as going forward, so I fail to see how them coming on would weaken Liverpool today.


With those two on the pitch, Liverpool would retain the ball much better, and be more of a threat going forward, plus Babel would be there to go at Neville with pace.

Rodriguez has been tracking back constantly today

Thanx 4 The Fish

How was Neville not yellowed there, foot above his head FFS.

Another home team decision fro Man U from Webb.

How come you still haven't addressed why you have a problem with the penalty but not with Gerrard's role in your goal?

You dont have an answer, do you?

citytillidie

Just proved my theroy on Webb not even a free against Neville for that

PHB

I do think we need a 3rd.

When will Gerrard be coming on?

Do it again do it again! :pac:

why is no one complaining that carragher was fouling rooney in the box for the goal??
He's on a yellow card too isn't he? should be off - liverpool could be down to 8 men, how many till the game is abandoned

Neville should have seen yellow for that. Not even a free :rolleyes:

great start totally undone by the ref. as Llyod said, the momentum is wit United and expect them to win to be honest, Park or Webb to score maybe.

Great call Mr.Alan, I hope you had your weeks wages on this prediction.

:pac: Since when is high foot a yellow card? I love this thread. For a neutral it was fcuking hilarious.

kryogen

we really need a third tbh

therecklessone

Alan Greene in Mary Whitehouse mode, this is really killing him:

United fans singing "Steve Gerrard, Gerrard...he kisses the badge on his chest" and Greene says they are singing an offensive song and he won't translate it for the listeners.

:rolleyes:

daithijjj

kuyt is a passenger out there.

utd could get another couple here I think unless we pick up a bit. Get Maxi off as he hasn't really done too much.

What answer? I said in the match thread of that game that they should have thrown the book at him. Go and re - read it if you like.

mike65

Just get Babel and Yossi on and go for it

Yakult

Throw on N'Gog I say or Babel

Esse85

As a Villa fan, this would be an EXCELLENT result

Rafa make the f*cking changes. Babel, Benny and Aquilani on for Masch, Kuyt and Maxi.

Peyton Manning

How is that a free against Fletch?

mike65

Handbags from Fletcher

Yes I saw that.... Was Rooney trying to talk to the ref after that? I thought twas Mascherano...

PHB

That's a ludicrous free kick imo. Fletcher clearly won the ball.

Nothing really between Fletcher and Lucas.

Thanx 4 The Fish

Yeah, am already up.

How is fletcher not booked there as well, turned to kick out at Kuyt, hust could not get his legs out from under him to do it properly

Kuyt got a toe on the ball, Fletcher kicked out at Kuyt just as he rolls on the ground.

Its almost as lol worthy as you demanding Neville be booked for a high foot when its not a yellow card situation, it wasnt a high foot and it wasnt Neville involved in the incident!

cos he fouled him :rolleyes:

What was wrong with that "foul" by Fletcher just there?

Webb gives United everythingz!!!!!!

ragg

another liverpool could have been off - fould from behind is still a red though isn't it??

Liverpool should be down to 7 now

kryogen

why are pool fans calling for people to be taken off and not mentioning gerrard?

amacachi

Let's see, Fletcher swung at him on the way down then went for him again when he got up. How he didn't get booked is beyond me.

Thanx 4 The Fish

Jesus mate, is there a course you go to to learn how to defend the indefensible? His foot was well above the lads head who was hardly kneeling on the ground now was he?

x in the city

what excuse will Rafa use if they lose today I wonder...
