    i was having a lot of trouble with my stream earlier so i had the sky sports live commentary open,

    it provided me with this gem,

    "nani appears to be in tears"

    never has a sentence on a computer screen made me laugh so much, it was stunning,
    the lad i was watching it with was an obviously disapointed united fan (Disappointed due to the drubbing in case you were wondering), and it even drew a wry smile from him,

    i do not care if he got a nick on his leeg, Nani can cry me a river, but i wll thank him quietly for providing me with that moment, so, Nani, i applaud your being a massive girl :D

    Superb!! :pac: Look, accept your spanking! You's were given one. Move on to your next match.

    You never know, the total football that wiped the floor with you's on Sunday may not be replicated, so you's could still win the league, maybe!

    I did accept defeat.

    Liverpool were the better side and good value for their win, and good luck to you in the future. Hope to see you in the champions league soon because I'd love to play ye in Europe. Would be an epic battle.

    I only had issue with certain bouts of smugness directed at my wonderful club:)

    I'd say the combination of the incredible error and knowing he couldn't stay on the field to redeem himself was all too much for Nani when he started bawling.

    Who knows,maybe this could be his "Beckham" moment :o

    Congrats to Liverpool, ye certainly deserved to win today.

    Not so sure about all the gloating going on in here though and why all the Liverpool fans are so excited when they are sitting in 6th place. We have no midfield, played shyte away from home all season and have been poor in general. Yet we're still top of the Prem.

    Also a lot of shyte being spewed at Nani. He's has had a tremendous season and probably in contention for POTY. Plus he's a lot closer to getting his 3rd Prem medal than Steven Gerrard is to getting his first.

    whats it like winning a premierleague game?
    same question again but replace game with title?

    I'd imagine it was the same as winning a Division 1 title before Sky apparently invented football.

    Carragher should be jailed never mind banned for that. Horrble individidual of a person. Anyone justiyfing the tackle should go in there with him.

    What has any of that got to do with him crying and falling around the place like bambi on ice?

    I wonder will there be a media witch hunt to get Carragher banned like there was for Rooney last week... Will there ****! Rodriguez tried to do Rafael before Rafael's tackle on Skertel too. Rafael's tackle deserved a yellow, but at least he got the ball and went for the ball.

    Liverpool deserved their victory and well done to them.

    Carragher went for the ball too, he didnt get it and got Nani instead. He apologized for the tackle, why can United fans just let it go?

    Ive seen the pictures, just like you no doubt. I asked what has yesterdays tackle got to do with him getting close to winning another premiership medal

    Splendid, reasoned and non reactionary posting is back....

    'Im so morally outraged by the acts of another human being that I demand retribution outside the the parameters of normal punishment'

    'Any other person disagreeing with my opinion should also be vilified as an un fit member of a free thinking society'

    Can someone just liken carragher to a nazi so we can truly finish this thread of in style... Oooh! maybe at post 2000

    Hes f***in a worse player than I thought if he went for the ball. Apologys from a horrible individual like that mean f*** all. Lesser assualt on the street have gotten jail.

    As an Arsenal fan, great result. Entertaining game, but this thread has it beat hands down. Super stuff.

    For about the 10th time in this thread, it looks bad in that picture, not quite as bad in this much clearer one though

    Now run along


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 10,259 ✭✭✭✭Melion


    And not exactly "knee high" as you said

    Im sure your opinion of him being a poor player will keep him awake at night

    If Carragher actually thought he was going to get the ball going in that high then his decline is happening a lot more swiftly than I thought.

    Absolutely shocking challenge and Nani was lucky to get away without having his leg snapped.

    Have a word with yourself. It was knee high as it pulled the shin guard down.

    Where is the little gash on Nanis leg?
    Is it on his shin or his knee?

    I hate to go back to it but Rafaels tackle was much higher and he got away with just a yellow. He was off the ground with 2 feet raised, if Lucas hadnt jumped he would have got studs straight into the bollóx

    Are you trying to tell me Carraghers studs went through Nani's shin guard?

    Yeah, just after Rodriguez went in with the studs pointed at Rafael's knee. At least Rafael got the ball.

    So because Maxi hit Rafael that justified his lunge at Lucas?
    Good to see there is no point in talking to you any further about this.

    If Rafeal has have missed the ball that was a red card all day. The fact that he got the ball and Lucas managed to avoid being clattered is what saved him from getting a red.

    Carragher didn't get the ball and nearly broke Nani's shin in two.

    Whats the difference between Carragher and Rodriguez's tackle to Rafaels tackle?

    Rafael went for and got the ball.
