This looks like Giggs' ''Neville against West Brom'' moment.

Vidic always struggles against them

Why would you even bother?

Feet on Coutihno!

Jones is bloody useless with the ball, his passing has been muck, just as it has been all season.

Nuri Sahin

Ref just handballed I think.

Skrtel seems to think his only way back into the team to avail of the ol' Carrahoof.

Why is that taking the piss? The man is the greatest manager we have ever had and a legendary figure in the game. Only appropriate to show respect.

Why should Man Utd players have to stand and applaud that, why should they care about Bill Shankleys birthday? There was definitely an element of Man Utd are in town about it. Liverpool are forever pulling this kind of crap before games.

They were using it to get a competitive advantage.

Clev giggs , young And welbeck are vvvv poor so far

Giggs always has his pace to fall back on though.

I've no idea what it's got to do with Liverpool

It's a testament to how good they are both with their back four and top four considering their usual gaping hole beside Carrick. Cleverley just isn't up to the taste.

This game is always bigger for Liverpool this and Everton are the expectations for them. United aim for titles Liverpool aim for a few matches

Rayne Wooney

Get Nani on for Giggs ffs.

Aspas is not good

You lost the game Mike.

kryogen

Way to telegraph a pass Michael

miralize

Look at Carrick slowing the play down, letting Liverpool reorganise after a bout of quick passing.

When Jordan Henderson is skinning you, your days are numbered.

Jelle1880

Cleverley ahead of Kagawa...

Just send him out on loan if you're not gonna use him.

Andersonisgod

Evra looking very suspect defensively.

Come on now, you can do a bit better than that.

Himself and that Hillman are in the running for DOTM. Close battle this. Fatigue might play a part in the awarding of it.

I am beginning to like you more and more, keep romancing me you beauty.

double GG

This really shows how important a Kagawa/Rooney link man from Carrick to RVP is.

ankles

Under Moyes Utd are definitely a more direct team, many more long balls up for Welbeck/RvP to take down. Also full backs expected to bomb on and cross. trouble is none of that is particularly subtle. Bypassing midfield (such as it is) is not a way of winning titles/champions league. Moyes' and his team's tactical inexperience is horribly obvious

To be honest, I'll always try and give players a chance over a decent period of time, but Aspas is looking every inch a player for a mid-table Spanish side today. Way off the pace. I'd be surprised if he's involved in a goal for us today. Obviously hope I'm wrong.

Have United ever played Young centrally? Seem to remember him doing well there England for a bit.

LOSTfan57

Amazing how one goal makes Liverpool fans think they are great.

kryogen

Is Giggs at the back where he should be?

Is he ****

Alpha Dog 1

United should pull giggs and wellbeck deeper and push Ashley more central.

He's doing a cracking job stopping Carrick from getting United going though. Keep an eye on him for the next few minutes, his main job seems to be lessening Carrick's influence on the game.

Celebrate it tomorrow then. Im sure there will be another anniversary/celebration/memorial/news story next season when United are at Anfield.

mike65

I do find the booing of Evra very cheap.

Do you know what would be nice, if United played Kagawa centrally, that would be nice.

Is fergie still picking these teams?

They should really buy a midfielder that is capable of driving the team forward.

Always amusing to hear Evra being booed for getting racially abused

Rayne Wooney

Pool's creative players look like scoring almost every attack and United just hoof the ball in the box expecting RVP to score a backflip volley.

Ozil or bust
