Say what you want about the match just now, but for the record, I honestly didn't think we deserved to win. I'll be the first to stand up and admit we were beaten by the better team. Right from the kick off Liverpool looked the more hungrier side. Their passes were more precise and had more intent. Hey, it's their managers' head on the line, not Fergie's so naturally they will have more incentive. And I've already said before the match that I can't see Liverpool losing 5 in a row.
Yes we were way way below par. Only shot on target was Rooney's offside goal. Scholes was shitty, I have always said, we can never play big matches with 2 senior players in the team. Oh well, looks like a half fit Torres is better than a half fit Rooney. There were several beach balls on the loose but they didn't come in the way.
Though I do wonder what might've been had the referee grew a pair of nuts and be more consistent. Booking United players, fine I'll accept, but not booking the home team for more malicious tackles is a travesty to football. No wonder the rest of the league claims the Big 4 have the ref's in their back pocket. To prove a point, Carragher was only shown a yellow card for last man tackle on Owen? To prove another point, wait til the return match at Old Trafford, and I'm sure someone will say the ref is on United's side.
Well, it is just 10 games in the season and 2 losses. Not that bad, we had worse times, not to mention losing this fixture home and away last season. All in all, good job on Liverpool's side on winning. On to the next fixture thn...
