    Cheers weeksy!

    BTW – apparently significant numbers of United fans were singing ‘The Sun was right, you’re all murderers’ today.

    Stay classy!

    (And before anyone starts, Munich songs are not cool either)

    Disapointing we could only put 3 past them. Hapless.

    Difficult to go on highlights only but that looked like the most comprehensive defeat Liverpool have inflicted at OT in years. It may not have been the 1-4 of four years ago but Utd were always in that game despite the scoreline. Fellaini looks more and more like a liability every time he plays – and got away with two penalties that may have been awarded against him.

    Oh and Vidic. 😆 (though Sturridge’s dive was a shocker.)

    I have no emotional involvement in the match or the premiership 🙁 but I do hope they dusted off “Oi, Suarez, your teeth are offside” for the occasion

    It was Evra that played him onside for his goal. 🙂

    So….on the basis that Moyes is a dead Man walking……..who will they get to replace him?

    Somebody who thinks they can motivate a load of prima dona unprofessional overpaid half wits! Its the team that have let him down. Spineless IMO.
    I think Moyes is a “solid” but limited manager however he deserves more.

    Ironically Vidic was the only player that didnt give away a penalty yesterday! he was unfortunate and Sturridge like the most others is a cheat.

    Whilst Sturridge made it look a lot worse than it was… it was without doubt a penalty… Sturridge just went down before he was taken out.

    I watched it and saw no contact whatsoever! Are you saying he dived before contact was made?

    cheat or no cheat but with only 1 shot in target it’s never going to end well.

    Yes… but it was certain that there would be contact…

    I also find it hysterical we’re abusing cheats with Ashley Young as a Man Utd player… LOL… comical.

    OK pre emptive cheating then? That makes it OK 🙄

    Anyway he was passed him when he went to ground unless you are saying that against the laws of physics Vidic once he hit the ground was going to pick up speed then make contact?

    But you said it WAS a penalty when what you meant was at some future unspecified time there was going to be one! Good call 😀 are you Kreskin?

    You can whine like a girl all you want fella… However, it doesn’t change anything.

    the club is still in pieces, the manager is having a disaster and the players are deserting the sinking ship like rats..

    Welcome to the next phase of Man Utds life. I look forward to seeing if the levels of support for the manager, the club etc all continue.

    “we don’t sack managers”

    Was all very easy to say when he was winning trophy upon trophy… However in Fergusons lean times, it was a different board, different owners and a totally different game.

    Of course, i hope Moyes stays… i like him… He looks like he’s aged 10 years this season though.

    The thing with United is that you might believe in Moyes if there was any evidence of improvement or a plan, but there isn’t. Mata is a very good player but why pay all that money then play him out of position?

    I watched the Sturridge incident carefully. I looked to me like Vidic’s foot slid under Sturridge’s as he put it down.
    It’s human instinct, when you feel yourself standing on something that shouldn’t be there, to unweight your foot so as not to risk damaging your ankle or whatever you’re standing on.
    So whilst as a Liverpool supporter I’m biased, I wouldn’t say Sturridge cheated at all.

    RE: the penalty….it wasnt a penalty but i dont think it could be called cheating…more gamesmanship. sturridge went looking for the contact and like most modern footballers was ready to go to ground once contact was made…but the contact never came as he was too quick for vidic…this made it look like a blatant dive…
    however i think vidic was kind of lucky to be on the pitch at that time anyway as on another day he could have been given a straight red for clattering into the back of suarez (his first yellow)
    rafael was also lucky to still be on the pitch too as his handball could have got him his second yellow too
    the foul on sturridge by carrick was a stonewall penalty but i suppose not getting that one was justice served for the one that was awarded and subsequently missed by gerrard.
    as a liverpool fan i dont like players who cheat especially if they are our players and i hope sturridge got a rollocking from rodgers for the penalty.
    i wish suarez would now start taking the penalties instead.

    i’ve seen comments from utd fams saying moyes should quit but i think moyes should honour his contract….
    Utd should actually rip up his current one and give him an improved and extended contact as a reward for the excellent work he’s doing at old toilet!! 😆

    Have you got a link to the video you are watching? It was a pretty blatant dive from every angle I’ve seen.

    I didn’t think it was a penalty. But then, Carrick got away with a blatant one, and Rafael should’ve been sent off, so Man U shouldn’t feel too hard done by.

    looked like a dive to me as a Liverpool supporter and I wish he hadn’t done it. Would love to see retrospective punishments for divers.
    What is becoming obvious to me is that Ferguson was an even better manager than any of us thought to mold that group into a title winning team.

    I watched the MOTD2 footage. Vidic’s foot is clearly underneath Sturridge’s foot and Sturridge appears to roll forward upon feeling the foot. Yes, he went down easily, and was looking for the penalty, but I don’t think that makes him a cheat.

    And let’s face it, we absolutely mugged the scum left right and centre, so that incident was neither here nor there! 😀

    It’s perhaps a bit of a dive but the attempted tackle missed the ball completely and could easily have taken him out unless he jumped over it. I’ve seen much worse (from Ashley Young, Nani, Ronaldo, Berbatov etc etc).

    Don’t really see what all the fuss is about. I guess they have to try and cling on to something.

    I think last year, while Fergie got the maximum out of his team, it was as much as other teams imploding. City especially with Mancini seaming to be picking arguments with his players every week. Benitez also performed a bit of a miracle seeing how the fans treated him, but it can’t have been easy to get the best out of them under those conditions.

    Debating what was a penalty, and what wasn’t is all pretty academic really though. We were woeful! We could have stayed out there for another 90 minutes and never looked like scoring. We were comprehensively outclassed. You can’t blame Moyes. Nobody turned up! Simple as! Apart from Vidic, as per. And he probably got himself sent off as he was trying desperately to carry those who had failed to show up.

    VP is the biggest disappointment. You need to show some character, not just when you’re winning, but when you’re not getting it your own way. His sulk is now becoming Anelka-like. He’s a world class player. He needs to start acting like one. He’s been happy to pick up his enormous wage packet while he’s been out injured for most of the season

    Not sure about anyone else but it was me that called Sturridge a cheat. Is that what you mean by “they”?

    I cant believe the justifications for his actions above, the logic is staggering.

    I was talking about Man U fans but if you want some more attention I guess it can apply to you as well.

    It’s just a game, don’t take it so seriously.
