Have United forgotten how to pass the ball? Shocking stuff so far.

Very often against the big teams in the PL and in Europe.

Yeah I thought so. I think he shows LIverpool way too much respect in this fixture.

This is a prime example of a game that you'd miss Rooney. Liverpool's defence and goalkeeper still look vulnerable trying to play that 'passing' game and any sort of pressure on the ball and they give it away. RVP doesn't bring the same work rate up front as Rooney would.

What is the purpose of Borini
Gerrard started well

Doesn't make sense to any United fan I'd say

Take Giggs and Evra off

Strange the way, Ferguson is called a genius and the best of all time. But some fans still think he doesnt have a clue.

sReq | uTeK

funny that i remember someone saying liverpool play like stoke.

yes you know who you are.

Watching this they've passed the ball better in the 1st 20 minutes than united have all season.

Yeah, but MancRed912 and GiggzClass88 just tweeted that they agree with me, so I don't know how we're going to resolve this.

United look pretty open in midfield. I wish Darren Fletcher was fit.

Rafael is defending very well though. Coaches have obviously been working hard on him.

Thanx 4 The Fish

Looked like that should have been a pen. Arms all over him and threw him to the floor. Reckon they got away with one there.

Lord Trollington

The Brunch is down injured.

Away fans generally seem louder, mainly because of their location in the stadium.

Home fans usually are louder because at Anfield they outnumber away fans by almost 40,000.

G.K.

Ferdinand injured?

Big loss. Buttner on, Evra CB, I guess.

DB21

FFS Ferdinand better not be injured too :mad:

MagicMarker

Well done leaving Vidic at home.

mike65

My stream is rubbish but Evans really did look to be impeding Agger.

murpho999

Liverpool had better penetration with the Young Boys.

Kylo Ren

Ah sure, why not have a few more injuries.

He was a player Rodgers had a number for?

Gerrard has just put in as good a 20 minute stretch as he has managed in some time.

If it was I'd say Anderson on, Carrick CB

He obviously not a 100%, other wise you would have your captain and best defender playing in an important game like this

He has been pinnacle but I fear if he gets tired which he will.

Red Crow

lol what an awful pass

Hococop

giggs has been pretty poor so far

Lord Trollington

What an awful decision

Could someone pm me a stream?

Stuck watching a dire minor final on dire TV3

Borini is there to make up the numbers. It's him or Downing.

Thanx 4 The Fish

That free was as bad as one of Gerrards corners.

onemorechance

Nani still sucking!

HazDanz

The game has been bad. So many poor passes.

JaMarcus Hustle

So, THAT Nani has shown up today.

IvySlayer

RVP in the box Nani....USE HIM!

You need to capitalise though and we haven't. Giving it a right rattle though it must be said.

greenman09

In terms of the atmosphere the home fans are probably caught up in the day that it is. It'll take liverpool to do something to make them shout about it. Pretty emotional game

ollie1

Joe Allen top passer so far with 22.

At least he beat the first man :pac:

Well in fairness he is rarely getting the ball - the entire team is producing nothing and with Giggs in CM he has no platform off which to build.

Thanx 4 The Fish

Jesus Suarez, always trying to do too much with the ball.

Do you mean the first man sitting in Row Z?

SantryRed

It'd do United much better to go 4-4-2 and get at the Liverpool back line and make them make the mistakes.

sReq | uTeK

they need to bring scholes on 2nd half and get giggs off.

Drumpot

I think if you look at uniteds bench, SAF is relying on his subs to win the game! United just don't have the ball enough , feel like I'm waiting for Liverpool to score!!

Liverpool are more than capable of making mistakes in the back 4 without any pressure on them at all

IvySlayer

All Giggs is going running from the centre circle to our box when Liverpool have the ball, waiting to fck up a pass.
