    Just came on to post about how gorgous that goal was, and then its 1-1...ffs.

    McNair all over the place defensively today

    Wonder what LvG was saying to Giggs there when Herrera's goal went in. Almost looked like he was saying I told you so.

    Why is that Shelvey pic with Fergie in here? Bizarre.

    In a manner... he's only started 6 games but those stats include his sub appearances.

    Some great attacking exchanges here.. so terrible defensive play though.. McNair doesn't seem to be at the races.

    The Shaw/Di Maria combination looks promising on the left. I suppose you should be entitled to expect as much for £90M!

    Liverpool fans will always want utd to lose. I don't think its bitter. It's just human nature.

    Fellaini just got his card and he is looking more clumsy today than usual!

    The referee had it in for Fellaini from the start.

    Its funny how Rooney gets lauded by commentators for doing things he shouldn't be doing like coming so ridic deep. Controls a bouncing ball and gets lauded like he just scored a goal to rival bergkamps... makes me lol.

    Fellani on a yellow in the 1st half. Could be a great shout for a few bob on a red for him.

    Game has lacked quality since the goals.

    But refs are biased towards United as you just said? Surely a harsh card would go against that?

    bit worried he wont last the game some stupid fouls from him today plus the ref seems to be keeping a close eye on him

    hopefully mata comes on

    Fellaini doesn't need to be making tackles as the number 10.

    I reckon Fellaini is confused by his role as no. 10. I rather Mata in the hole than Fellaini.

    And long may it continue. About time we got a few decisions go our way.

    I just couldn't understand how any red could miss those handballs though.

    Same happened in the chelsea game if I remember correctly and he had a great second half. Open to correction on team.

    Hmm, nice front 6.
    Blind
    ----Herrera---Fellaini
    Young
    Di Maria
    Rooney

    Would prefer Falcao as a lone striker though.

    McNair has been poor, valencia seems a better bet at right back.

    He's had a few good layoffs. People are over critical of Rooney over other players imo. He's been good, but not great.
