On a side note, Kelly is a good player but it is a shame he is stuck in a lcub going nowhere

Great cross by Kelly. He deserves a run of a few games. Playing very well.

Torres a year or so ago would have taken that down when it was obvious Ferdinand was shaping for a block and got a shot on target.

I don't think he has been great either, but the circumstances are all against him.

He is isolated up there, and there have been too many long balls hit towards him, that is not his game.

It is even worse now that Gerrard is missing, it really is a no win situation for him, still thinking a bit of magic might happen!

Amazing to think Johnson is England's first choice right-back.

He won't be for long a few younger players coming through that could be pushing him for a place

Too many loose passes from Liverpool's defence in dangerous areas. Good that they're actually trying to pass it, they just look out of practice!

come off it, it's gone from "get woy out now"

to

"wish we could influence ref's"

Nothing about the players on the pitch doing SFA.

Lucas constantly giving the ball away, comitting fouls.

maxi pulling out of tackles and making wrong descions with passes.

Torres wondering around like a lost boy.

Stevie G foolishly going into a tackle with two feet off the ground.

But go ahead, just keep blaming the ref :rolleyes:

Nonchalant is the correct term.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him leaning against the goal post, waiting for a corner to come in, quaffing a glass of champagne & smoking a cigar.

United need a second, but from a neutral point of few I am liking the fact Pool are still in this one. Would love if they got an equaliser. Would like to see the 2 teams play an even game, 11 v 11, with no dodgy early peno.

Anderson in for the Scottish Pelé. Probably the safest bet after Fletch's early yellow.

I can't believe your sullying the name of the great Nick Drake with dribble like that. For shame. I had a check, the name Shaking Stevens is still available.
