    Martin Kelly has been magnificent.

    As a United fan I have to say he's looked good. Irish blood in him?

    Kelly doing very well today. With luck he will get a run in the team on the back of his performance. He played even better against Chelsea and was dropped straight away.

    The fact that the commentators are even suggesting that could have been a foul on Reina is another big thing worng with the game (in general I mean, not today)

    part of me would love to see Kenny make a statement and take Torres off.

    he's been embarrassing.

    Amazing to think Johnson is England's first choice right-back.

    Kelly has been immense, meireles has been far too wasteful, really lacking intelligence with some of his decisions

    Why is anyone actually surprised about the desicions, it's old trafford and Howard Webb, all you can do is laugh, I'd ****en love if Liverpool were in that position to influence refs

    Another insightful post of absolute quality from you there, Lady Gaga!

    Truth hurts doesn't it?? It is hard when Stoke playe more attractive football. I feel sorry for ye.

    On a side note, Kelly is a good player but it is a shame he is stuck in a lcub going nowhere

    Great cross by Kelly. He deserves a run of a few games. Playing very well.

    Great block by Ferdinand - United need to get a second and put this game away

    And here comes Babel, in whose name men built a tower.

    Torres a year or so ago would have taken that down when it was obvious Ferdinand was shaping for a block and got a shot on target.

    Hey It's good to see some of the Pool Fan's blaming the Ref instead of their own Manager, Welcome back.

    Got to laugh at your sh1t stirring posts.

    I don't think he has been great either, but the circumstances are all against him.

    He is isolated up there, and there have been too many long balls hit towards him, that is not his game.

    It is even worse now that Gerrard is missing, it really is a no win situation for him, still thinking a bit of magic might happen!

    He won't be for long a few younger players coming through that could be pushing him for a place

    Too many loose passes from Liverpool's defence in dangerous areas. Good that they're actually trying to pass it, they just look out of practice!
