    no disrespect to liverpool but i think fergie is showing liverpool to much respect

    shocked at the team absolutely flabbergasted

    in fergie we trust :o

    Its a typical European away team lineup by Utd
    Ultra defensive .

    I cant see there being many chances in this match ,it will be like most derbies at Anfield, high in tempo and low in attacking quality.

    Classless dive. Classless calling for a card.
    why? If someone does something that scummy that warrants a card then it should be enforced.

    Nice play there. Jones shoulda done better though

    United playing a high pressing game, makes Fergie's selection more plausible seeing as he probably thinks that pressing the Liverpool defence high up the pitch can be a ballwinning tactic. Quite a good call from the looks of it

    Bad miss from Jones, he really has to be hitting the target from there. Good start from United, Liverpool look very loose in defence.

    Delighted to have smalling back at RB over Val (as much as I love Val).

    Absolutely. But it's not the place for players to try force the refs hand. Trust me, I'm a Chelsea fan, I see terry try it often enough.

    Ray Wilkins claims Liverpool have settled better yet Utd have had more possession.
    Ray Wilkins ignores Downing's dive (which is a yellow card) and focuses on Evra calling for a card (nothing wrong with asking the ref to apply the rules).

    Could also be checking Liverpools gas tank. Adam wouldnt be the biggest energiser bunny & Gerrards 1st start in a good while plus with how theyre playing.
    Last 20/25 minutes, Nani & Rooney could cause havok

    Anyone that does this should be booked themselves, its worse than diving imo.

    no it's not, and if it was then no Barca or Real players would make it through a game.

    I don't like players doing it, but that's probably going a bit far.

    We should focus more on how shocking a dive that was anyway

    That'll be the gameplan in the first half, but Ferguson will bring on Rooney and Nani 2nd half and change the game.

    The lack of pace in Liverpool's defense would be torn apart by Chico imo.

    And LOL at United parking the bus with more chances and more possession.
