Love this.

...............although Ferguson actually felt United were the better team.''It is a hard one to take because I felt we were the better team,'' he said. ''That is not reflected in the scoreline and quite rightly, when you win 4-1 you get all the plaudits. I can't deny that.''

Fergie's finally lost it. They got their asses stomped by the Rampaging Reds. Deal with it. I want to record this game, absolutely fantastic. Torres and Gerrard make the vaunted United defence look like a bunch of amateur chumps.

It was a plain and simple ass-whupping. I can't wait until the repeat. It's worth watching again for sure.

Definately what I was not expecting I was just glad to see Arsenal win today and move into 4th. That is now Arsenal's goal.

With Liverpools' win they are back in the race for first allthough its still tough to catch Man U.

Meh, a small blip.

chris_yk · 03-14-2009, 01:36 PM

Well hey that was a pretty awesome win today, congratulations! If only my team had played half that good..

Jagger · 03-14-2009, 01:46 PM

Who do you hate again, Wayne?

What a game! Funny, when Ronaldo scored the penalty, I wasn't worried in the slightest. I thought, Man U was up 1-0 last time too. Then we came back with a vengence! Nice goals by Torres and Aurrillio (what a free kick!) and Gerrard nails his pen. Man U definitely had more chances, but Liverpool took advantage of their chances. I loved seeing Fergies face after the third went in. haha

Lucas actually played a pretty solid game. our midfield as a whole did. WHere was Alonso? I heard them mention something but missed the first 2 mins so wasn't sure what they said.

Great game, as was mentioned before, a double against Man U and Chelsea makes this year a success. If Torres and Stevie were healthy all year, things might have been different. I still haven't written them off, but I'm focusing more on the CL.

Injured in the Real match.

I was happy with Lucas as well. Bring on Aston Villa.

I'm really hoping Fulham do us a favour on Saturday. Even a draw in the game coupled with a win against Villa and we are right back in it. However in Fulham's 2 recent matches with United they've basically resigned themselves to losing the game before even running out on the pitch, a trait that a lot of teams this season seemed to have adopted against United. Saturday showed that if you have a real go at United you can rattle them AND beat them, they aren't invincible by any stretch of the imagination. Let's hope Liverpools win gives other teams a bit more confidence to go out and have a real go at playing United. United may still go on and win the league but the seeds of doubt and second guessing have been planted in that 4-1 drubbing.

As for Liverpool they need to win every match from here on in, but we've been saying that for a while now. If we beat Villa I honestly fancy us to go on a massive winning steak, possibly until the end of the season. And if we still don't win it after that then United deserve to win it.

Rafael Benitez signs new 5 year deal. A bit of mixed opinion on this guy over the course of the year (although not from me, except for a few times when he put Lucas on the field...) But I think this should make the majority of Liverpool fans happy. With Rick Parry leaving at the end of this year, and this contract being signed, it seems that Rafa was given the power he wanted. In the course of just over a week, 2 huge wins, and Rafa's staying...nothing but great news coming out of this team lately. Hopefully they keep it up against Villa on the weekend, and through to the end of the year.

Jagger · 03-21-2009, 11:54 AM

Well that couldn't have worked out any better could it?

Fulham 2 Mancs 0 with Rooney and Scholes sent off!
Spurs 1 Chelski 0

The Reds HAVE to take advantage against Villa.

Come on you redmen!!!!!!

Damned rights. They can do this, close the gap.

The game report is hilarious:

Quote:

Ronaldo was becoming more and more frustrated at Phil Dowd's reluctance to award a free-kick every time the Portugal international was tackled.

The United winger was so incensed that he produced a two-footed lunge at Murphy which was only punished by a yellow card because he did not connect with the Fulham midfielder.

Sounds like somebody lost his panties.

Nuje · 03-21-2009, 01:05 PM

This is like Christmas in March! Liverpool have to beat Villa in the my apartment derby (my brother is an Aston Villa fan). On the rocks, 10am. I am starting to get extremely excited right about now.

Locke · 03-22-2009, 10:13 AM

Kuyt yeah!

Jagger · 03-22-2009, 11:01 AM

3-0 at the half!
Reina had to make a couple of really good saves but Liverpool should probably have 5 by now.

Keep it up Reds!

Nuje · 03-22-2009, 01:07 PM

Excellent 5-0 dismantling of Villa. Liverpool look invincible right now. The only downside is Villa will be without their goalkeeper for Man United in 2 weeks, but the Mancs will be without Vidic, Rooney, and Scholes. Keep it going. The Mancs haven't got it sewn up just yet, and I figure that Rafa probably slipped O'Neill a piece of paper with more strategy on how to beat their opponents.

Locke, cool to see you finally show up to OTR. Even though you're in Red Deer, you gotta try and make it down one day Jagger.
