    Shockingly i do think some liverpool fans are over-reacting. Joint top of the league - yeah, United have a game in hand, but they could be in a far worse position. A draw at home to your local rival is not unheard of. As has been pointed out, United have dropped points on a number of occasions to City; Chelsea only recently dropped points to Fulham.

    These things happen, and although they have been happening a little more lately for liverpool, its not like United or Chelsea have been on top form either.

    As has been said, 17 games left, plenty of football to be played.

    yup many more home draws i'd say based on that performance

    Oh ntlbell, no-ne more than you deservers that award you are showcasing in your signature.

    We traditionally under Rafa are at our best in the latter stages so we'll see how things play out shall we? Or do you just want to continue on trying to bait people?

    He wasnt even the worst player on the pitch tonight or the worst player over the season out of what was on show tonight. Calm yourself and go to bed or else you wont be up in time for school.

    i'll never figure out how a side who just marginely got a draw are so proud and happy that they want to slag the other fans. wake up everton ye are ****e and barring the 9-0-1 formation ye played in the majority of the second half ye'd have been battered.

    Anyone else surprised everton did united ANOTHER favour, i believe instead of the toffees we'll call ye Fergies bitches, has a better ring

    Teams that get late draws tend to celebrate like it's a win. Look at Arsenal at home to united last season. Celebrated at the end as if they won the league having really drawn at home. Also as a derby match they saved face from a tonne of slagging from Liverpool mates I'm sure.
    Don't know about them doing United a favour. They held them to a draw in goodison and could still do damage at Old Trafford (Hopefully not ;)) as they are really not ****e as you call them.

    What do you mean by "latter stages"?

    I agree Mitch but its just frustrating to see so many home draws and especially when we see the other contenders not on top gear either.

    Just hope we arent sitting around in May thinking of all the 'could have been' results against the so called lower teams at Anfield.

    With regards to kuyt hes a grafter and a good squad player to have. But for Rafa to start him week in week out and leave the likes of babel (who needs games/confidence) and Keane (who needs games/confidence) on the bench more often than not something is up.

    Kuyt should be a squad player not a player who starts every week. I just feel after tonight liverpool are still missing that extra player with the flair and quality. And Babel getting a minute just does no good for a player.

    Meh........it was a similar problem last season but combined with an abysmal away record in the first half of the season. This season, we still have that "too many draws at home" problem, yet are sitting level on points with you (and before you say it, you have to first win that game in hand against the solid Fulham).

    I'll take the position that we are in considering we usually kick it up a few gears from February onwards.

    Oh, i understand the frustration, and I suppose people have every right to be pissed off with the result tonight, but I would certainly not be delivering champagne to Old Trafford tonight. United have come within minutes and inches of poor performances turning into poor results.

    Settle down young man, the exuberance of your verbosity is not inebriating. Kuyt was so bad over 2 seasons that close to 50mil was spent on his replacements. He can barely stand upright with his bowlegs let alone deserve the liverbird on his chest. An embarrasment to liverpool tradition, shankly and paisley would weep at the thought of him gracing the anfield turf.......night night son;)

    it should have been the other way around, babel should be playing 3/4 of a game and kuyt brought on when Rafa wants to defend a lead..which i dont really agree with. people giving out about torres taken off but he missed a sitter and had long enough. we should have been running at the full backs putting them under pressure not casually trying to beat them..

    would a bigger mystery not be the liverpool fans leaving early during a derby game?

    No.

    If we're to loose against fullham and we both win our remaining games assuming you don't make up the GD we wouldn't need to win it to win the league like?

    The same place ABUs go when United win.

    Look at that even. ABU's have a term, do 'anti-liverpool' fans have one. Pah, nope, small timers...:P
