So why wasn't Giggs sent off? Think rarnes1 hit the nail on the head

Brendan Rodgers "couldn't fault the players thought they were excellent"

Rooney's black headband looks like it would be great for headers.

He should wear it all the time while playing, it is like wonder woman's bangles, a different person without it :pac:

doc_17

And why isn't that a yellow as well? Same as hendersons

Not the only thing

Should have booked Rooney for hand ball and Nani for diving

That wall was no where near 10 yards away

djPSB

Sterling thinks he has waaaaaaayyyyyyy too much time on the ball.

Kylo Ren

An equaliser is inevitable.

Tbh, probably our best performance of the season.

Think United lads on here would even say we were better side, not that either team has been great.

Nuri Sahin

>_<

super_furry

That sums it up tonight for Liverpool.

super_furry

Two very average teams TBH.

Utopia Parkway

Liverpool have certainly had enough chances tonight. Just some heavy touches at the last moment.

Knex*

How do we keep...

Sigh.

edgecutter

Jesus, you would swear the sky commentary team are upset Liverpool aint winning

DDC1990

Suarez is doing everything, but no-one else seems to have the energy.

COYW

How have Liverpool not scored tonight? It beggars belief given the possession they have had.

Since when does inevitable mean 'never coming'?

34 shots on goal between them, 1 goal

edgecutter

Nani has showed why he should start. he can be irritating at times, but he offers so much more than valencia and young.

5starpool

3 mins? That crap with Giggs 5 mins ago took over a minute ffs.

delw

Probably our best 2nd half performance all season & we are still going to lose :rolleyes:

Mars Bar

Giggs has been possessed or something

Hank Scorpio

Haha, Giggs is like a mascot at this stage

Kylo Ren

Yeah, especially since United are starting with Smalling and Evans at CB, Buttner at LB, Jones and Giggs in CM, and Chicho up front.

Sakho ffs

Agueroooo

Both keepers deserve a mention . everyone else mehhhh

...53%...?

Man Utd have had more shots on target and more shots in general.

Rayne Wooney

Well I don't know how Moyes pulled that off with that midfield. Serious improvement needed, players need to start performing.

Bye bye pool maybe next year.

RobertKK

I pity Zaha, he should have been given a run out.

Liam O

So much whinging in here

Will I Amnt

Yarrrrr!!! Get the f**k in there. Good win for the B team even if it wasn't the greatest game.

Sir Oxman

Moyes is going on as if he's just won the Champions League.

Turtyturd

Ah well there goes the treble....A cup double for Moyes could be a good start though. :pac:

Not a bad game tbf, evenly matched teams this evening

Not to say that we were brilliant, but I actually think that was Liverpool's best performance of the season so far. At least we were competitive for the full 90 minutes, for once.

edgecutter

Best display from us for a while. Kagawa and nani have done enough for me tonight to be in the first eleven instead of Tony and young.

Great to see raf back and hernadez scoring (he should be used more)

Big shout out too Smalling he should be starting beside Vidic he was immense tonight.

In fairness, he needed that win against Liverpool, would have went down badly to have lost to Liverpool again so soon and after the bad defeat on Sunday to city.

Suarez makes a huge difference

Could be the end for Liverpool's European aspirations.

Ordinary man

Good result and nice to see the reserve players getting match time

Wow, I didn't see the stats but I wouldn't have thought that.

Hulk Hands

Even enough game. It really pays to have a born finisher on the field from United's point of view. Excellent win when you consider the respective strength of the sides put out. Phil Jones was my MOTM, but mentions to Buttner and Hernandez

Hank Scorpio

Rooney worked very hard with a smile on his face, good to see. He's gonna have a huge season I feel

Mr.Crinklewood

Thought Utd defended well, need to up things offensively if they are to do well this season though.

Alpha Dog 1

Great to see the reserves take care of an almost full strength Liverpool team.

RobertKK

The Sky sports panel reminds me of the Sunday Game panel.

SS presenter is clueless
