I kept up with the first 15 minutes, and then was pulled away. Looking at the scoreline, its just typical Man Utd (or Scumpool) this year. Underachieve, go a goal down, and then make a tactical change and reverse the result. Lucky bar stewards. Alright, maybe thats just the bitterness talking because they could do very very well this season.
One point from their game against Arsenal and the title race is over. I heard after their final goal today, Evra did the Bentiez "its over' hand gesture. As much as we hate seeing Man Utd so dominant, it must cut the Scousers like a knife knowing so many big victories, late wins, and lucky red cards, and they still arent good enough. Victories over us twice, and Man Utd twice making histroy in the process, and they havent done it. The stars were aligned, the luck was on their side, but between Benitez playing Skrtel as a RB, and Andrey Arshavin, it still wasnt enough. That must hurt
And above all, this is gonna be #18. If they beat Barcelona, I cant even imagine the sentiment on Merseyside
And next year, I think we will be good enough to challenge for the title....
yep- they only need one or two of those matchwinners to play well and they can bail out the rest of the side. must be a fantastic thing to rely on, if we come close to matching their quality in the final third in the summer we should have a real chance to win the title again.
Exactly. Our defense and midfield, imo is definitely the equal or better than theirs. But nobody can match Tevez, Rooney, Berbatov and Ronaldo. Especially when one or two of those options come off the bench to run at a weary defense
