I'll stick with the glaring miss from Crouch/Kuyt/Voronin/Riise 55 minutes in at 0-0 followed by a deflection off Vidic's ******** in the 94th minute.Quote:

mascherano was an idiot, he deserved to go from first minute he was more worried about chasing ref around pitch than the game. reina was poor for such a big man he is terible on crosses should have claimed ball for ronaldo and brown goals
torres was marked well by utd, thought utd back four looked very solid
i tought gerrard was brilliant when he was forced to move back into the midfield. he didnt get much help from teammates though.Quote:

You wouldn't be a Liverpool fan by any chance? In the land of the blind, the one eyed is king :D.Quote:

What are they supposed to do? Stand back and let him play? Didn't see him being kicked up and down the pitch.
Macherano was moronic. On a yellow and having seen his team mate booked for dissent, he goes and dissents. Stupidity of the highest order.
There wasn't one brilliant performance yesterday - Vidic and Ferdinand were very solid. Scholes and Carrick both played very well but Man Utd on the whole didn't have to get out of 3rd gear (even in the first half when the scousers had 11 on the field). Liverpool don't have the players to mount a challenge for the PL and I hope SKY drop this tag of big four from now on. Liverpool are miles behind Arsenal, Chelsea and Man Utd when it comes to the PL. They are a good cup side (as they prove in Europe every few weeks) but they are as far away from mounting a real title challenge as they were last year IMO.Quote:

Gerrard was his usual self in Man Utd-Liverpool games- once again outshone by Paul Scholes, who is still the best English centre mid. Ferdinand and Vidic made sure that Torres has done nothing in 180 minutes of football against Man Utd.
Mascherano was a complete fool- as Quieroz said he was asking for trouble. Benitez is a **** for complaining about the ref without even asking him what the second yellow was for.
I think the red was right but my problem with it is why doesnt Terry Essen rooney ronaldo ferdinand etc etc get booked when they do far worse. Still stupid out of the player he was warned.
There is a victim mentality at liverpool the refs are out to get them now :rolleyes: They got a small taste of what every other club puts up with week in week out from refs and had a spa attack.
Poor bluff moves today then saying torres is out injured whats the bets he makes a miraculous recovery just after the internationals !!!
Well, English players get away with murder from referees. It's generally the foreign players that are scapegoated by referees.Quote:

They are waiting on a scan on Cahill but they reckon his season is over. There is nothing wrong with Torres its just that whinging moaning Rafa trying to make a point.
God ye must be getting embarressed by him at this stage with his constant bitching & moaning
"The people's club" Yes Mr Moyes, indeed.
Indeed.Quote:

He has continually proved to be a clueless classless buffoon witness his "small club" comment after the anfield derby last year or his "lescott dived" comment this season. There are a million reasons for wanting to beat liverpool but to see him squirm is up there with the very best.
Compare that to Moyes after yet another woeful refereeing decision cost us points at the weekend, he still preferred to talk about his own team.
That is difference between the two, moyes will always want to talk about his own team first whereas benitez will try to blame anything to deflect away from his and his own team's failings
The Lescott is a diver ( from a manager of a team with Gerrard in it !!) comment just shows him as dumb, but the constant moaning now is hillarious if its not the refs fault its the owners fault or remember when he said the other team did nt let us play !!!!! the man is an embarresment if i was a red id want him gone as a blue i hope he stays forever :D
The small club mentality you both show only goes to prove his point.
and as long as fans like you keep making excuses for his ignorance and incompetence, he'll remain manager and Liverpool won't win the league which will be great for Everton fans!!Quote:

Spot on. Wayne Rooney is the worst I've ever seen. He calls every ref a pr#ck every game. Just watch any close up of him. The FA seem to ignore their own foul mouth verbally disgusting So Called Three Lions Heros, and come down hard on more talented foreign players, who only learn to curse from their English team mates to begin with..Quote:

............Howard
Neville Jags Lesscott Baines
.. Carsley Fernandes
Artetta..Osman...Pienarr
..............Yak
2-1 to liverpool with Yak and Torres x2 scoring one free/penalty from Gerrard Diving.
If AJ doesn't make it its one less diver on the pitch eh??:p
This may have been mentioned here before, but isn't it ironic that Liverpool haven't won a league title since the backpass rule was abolished.:)
5 points clear and I reckon Torres and Gerrard have played their last prem game for a while now. Benitez is sure to rest them with the Champs league in mind :rolleyes:
I think Liverpool proved today that their way better than Everon. No comparison.
Feed the Yak and......Torres'll score;)
For the expected "they have 100 squillion to spend", Derby threatened a stronger Liverpool than Everton did. Skittles was extremely good though.
Rubbish match I thought. Looks like Liverpools now.
Poor performance just as i predicted. As soon as i saw Neville and Carsley in central midfield i knew they wouldnt play well.
The long season is starting to show on the squad Artetta Yobo pienaar osman all played injured yesterday.
It could have been 3 or 4 yesterday they where out thought and out fought. Shocking game not made any easier to watch by the ref it seemed like every ball up to Yak resulted in a free kick at one stage yak with his arms by his side turned around and the ref gave a free !!!! Carsley was lucky to only get a yellow but then nothing for Carraghers late tackle on neville !
Liverpool totally deserved the win. :)
Everton looked tired and performed very poorly. Couldnt believe how bad they were in truth. Thought the referee was poor but the game was a damp squib by usual derby standards.
I see Rafa has come out and slammed Everton fans for showing a lack of respect because they where singing "the babies not yours" to Gerrard.
Wonder will he now come out and slam the dirt ball that spat at Neville !!
I wont hold my breath.
Everton are a very tired side a long season 2 good cup runs its a small squad so players have had to play in practically all games and play injured ( Artetta shouldnt be playing at all ) with 6 games left i hope they can find one more burst to finish off the season. getting 5th and breaking the 60 points mark would still be a very successfull season.
I think that he is referring to the paedo song there Anto. The "baby" song has been sung at derbies before and nothing was said.Quote:

Why did blues smash up The Royal Oak Pub though. Its not a red boozer! Dont get that.
They are idiots would be my first and prob only guess. Why would you smash up a pub even it was a red pub. but we are trying to get into the mind set of these people its not easy!! .Quote:

Too right, colours are for plastics:D
What songs were sung at Carsley and Lescott
I am not posting the words cos I dont want to get a ban. However, the Carsley one was about his disabled child and the Lescott ones about his appearance (Star Trek, Klingon, Elephant man etc references).Quote:

Hes big Yakubu, Purple Akis Twin
I didnt spot it but apparently Nevill ewas punched by a fan during the game as well as spat on several times add that to the songs you mentioned and FSW comments about respect is laughable.
This is Evertons responce :
He said: "Whilst we would never condone the singling out of individual players for vitriolic insults, it is a shame that Mr Benitez chose to ignore the actions of his own club's supporters.
"Not only was Joleon Lescott subjected to an afternoon-long barrage of quite disgusting and quite audible abuse, Phil Neville was seemingly spat at several times and was also punched in the back by a supporter as he took a throw-in.
"We have asked Merseyside Police and our Safety Officer to look into the matter.
Certain people on both sides need to take a good look at themselves.
You will allways get idiots fans at every ground supporting every team thats just the way it is.Quote:

The two sets of fans will constanlty slag each other but its the only derby game prob only prem game that doesnt need to segregate the fans all though in recent years the atmosphere has been changing getting a lot nastier and the last one i was at i saw a lot of liverpool fans thrown out prob for there own safety as much as anything.
The managers need to keep these kind of comments out of the game it does nothing for the game or the reputation of there own club. It seems after every time we play he cant help himself having a dig the "long ball" "they wont let us play" comment the "small club" comment and now this comment about the fans. Stick to talking about your own team rafa you **** :D
