    BR must a be a ****ing wuss in the dressing room, I really wonder what he spouts in his HT talk.
    Im sure he's going to come out and say his usual 'boys gave their best' nonsense, when they gave **** all.

    He really needs to sort out his ****ing system, this is not Seria A, why the **** is he playing 3 at the back. Mancini proved it's a ****ing disaster.

    Moyes and his team was under sooo much pressure, yet we just let them settle in when we should of shoved it down their throats first min on.

    I didn't use a stat?

    Man u's chances came from two set pieces and a long range effort from Kagawa. We had a free kick, and multiple chances to score.

    IMO we were very unlucky but played well.

    Arguably the best we've played all season, but disappointed we didn't create more against a reserve United defence. At least we kept it up for 90 minutes tonight (not including that 3 minutes at the end, we might as well of walked off at 90 mins).

    If Studge and Suarez don't score, where are the goals coming from? Really, we don't look like scoring from any other position. Not a doom and gloom, as overall our season has started well-ish, but just a feeling that we don't have many overall goals from that team, especially not from that midfield.

    United deserved the win against the best side Liverpool could field. The United team was not the strongest by any means. Thank you Liverpool for giving United the confidence they so badly needed after Sunday demolition derby. <ok>

    And BR needs to grow a pair and drop Gerrard. He should be the last person on the team if you want to play possession football. There are times you just need to hold on to the ball and try to find an opening, but the only thing on his mind is to hoof the ****ing ball.

    He's been awful lately and doesn't deserve an automatic start.

  9. Fair enough about using stats, thought you where referring to the possession stat with your "Having majority of the game at Man U is a good game by my accounts" comment.

    As for the set-pieces, maybe they did their homework? they clearly had regarding not letting us play from the back.

    Same ****ing shout from last season all of you. Drop Gerrard for who? Allen? Alberto?

    We played well, just didn't finish well, that's our strikers fault, so shall we drop Sturridge and Suarez?

    Well they had a chance from a corner and free kick, the corner we should of avoided. That was our own fault not them doing their homework.

    We had decent half chances and two proper chances which should of been done. We weren't **** at all and people saying that need to calm down.

    My only worry is, that is our strongest team and the players we brought on weren't going to make us play better tbh.

  15. We have been awful at set-pieces for ages now and its about time it was dealt with.

    I'm not saying we were ****, I'm saying Man Utd were better.

    Coutinho, Johnson and Agger are part of our strongest eleven (IMO) but yes, it is concerning <ok>

    You tarred everyone with the same opinion <ok>

    I don't think Man U were better tbh, they were at home and we has most of the play. As I said the only chances came from Man U when they were on the counter or the free kick. If they did that to us at Anfield we would complain saying we're sitting back to much. When Man U tried doing that, they struggled as we still made decent chances.

    Alright, I didn't mean everyone, but you get the gist. It's like when Arsenal lose a few in a row we here the same **** of 'Wenger out'

  17. I don't think they sat back either. We hardly touched the ball in the first twenty minutes and only started to see more possession in the second half when we were already 1-0 down. Maybe the Man utd players were a bit nervous about hanging on to that lead considering it was mainly their second string and Moyes was under pressure too?

    Personally, I don't think Gerrard has been playing great so far this season and I agree with others that he appears lazy but as you rightly said, who else is going to play if we drop him? However, I'm certainly not blaming the last three games on Stevie. I'm putting that squarely at the feet on BR and his team selections <ok>

    That WAS the best side that United could put out - the rest proved on Sunday that they weren't worthy of their pay. For our part, I'm glad that Suarez has got a game under his belt.

    After that it was a good game.

    Right now i'd actually drop him for Alberto tbh and see how he does, atleast he should do a better job keeping possession.
    Why pay 7 million and not give him a chance.

    It's not just today, Gerrard's been really poor in the last 3 or 4 games now.
    He's awful in keeping possession, When the pressure mounts, it's vital to have a midfielder to keep his cool and try and find an opening, and in all honesty Gerrard doesn't have that patience and looks for the hollywood pass ever so often.

  20. As I do after most games, I'm listening to the radio. There are Liverpool fans asking for 'Rodgers Out' <doh>
