How depressing is it to see that we have conceded less goals than they have yet because they've scored 20!! more than us, they're top of the league and we're eight!
"danger man for man u Howard webb and danger man against lfc because all his cross will be in keepers hand, will not defend,corners will be poor and he will start to make lfc fans silence as he did when he score because he think he is the greatest player"
"Man Utd find the back of the net more times with different players and globally have a more clinical attack as we are a bit Luis Suarez dependent, but we can compensate with a better midfield and ball possession specially when Stevie G is on the pitch. I hope in a great performance of our defensive pack. Howard Webb will ben Utd 12th man for sure, God help us! YNWA"
"We can win our df is better. they cant keep a clean sheet. not that we will this sunday but if we dominate the mid till the end which we can we will score more!!! 3-4 take out the manure YNWA"
"Everything the same, bar shots and goals. We've had slightly more opportunities (about 2 a game) and we aren't scoring.
We are one of the toughest teams to face, our league position doesn't reveal the quality of play.
Let's hope sturridge can turn that around!If he can bang in 15-20 goals a season underneath Suarez's goals, we will be much higher up next season."
"WE ARE THEIR BIGGEST NIGHTMARE. MISS PIGGY'S GIRLS ARE TERRIFIED OF US. WE DO TEND TO PLAY BETER AT THEIR PATCH. ATTACK IN NUMBERS AND DEFEND IN NUMBERS. JOHNSON ON THE LEFT. MY TEAM : PEPE, WISDOM, SKRTEL,AGGER,JOHNSON, SG,LUCAS,ALLEN,DOWNING, STURRIDGE AND LUIS /LFC 2- MANURE 0"
"Interesting stats - we match them well in defence but fall short in attack (like we didn't know this was our weakness). Also, shows what a great player StevieG is."
"we need to start with sturridge and luis in front 3 hope for early goal then push on ,its no good having all possession without scoring which as been the case most of season,thats why we need 2 goal getters from start
good luck redmen "
"Luis got a pen against Stoke and I believe Webb awarded it - may be hope for us yet! We should start with purpose like we did against QPR and not take our foot off the gas - Suarez and Sturridge up front me thinks - Lets hope all the boys have a very good day! "
"I believe BR is still using the old adage that if you are ahead you should defend the lead 10 minutes before and after halftime. This does not work in this day and age. It actually gives the other teams the iniive and brings them onto us. MU will have afield day if this happens. Keep pressing upfield and going forward! Keep them on the back foot. "
"They have a very fragile back line,and with suarez and sturridge running behind them i think we might have a chance. I hope our 12th man outshines theirs...YNWA"
"Just read about Howard "Manure" Webb...its going to be 12 v 11. I scare myself with the amount of HATE i have for Manure....alot of anger towards manure. Hope Suarez goes for 4 and we make 2009's demolishing look like just an appetizer...YNWA"
"Great, we're already a man down for Sunday with them having Webb on the pitch. I'm sure the addled-alky will give him his team talk before the game.
Liverpool to win 1-0 with a Suarez fisted effort from 35 yards."
"With Howard Webb with the whistle, LFc will end the game with 9 men (and Man U with 12 - including H. Webb), more so if we show early signs that we can potentially win the game. Any two of: Suarez, Lucas, Gerrard, Agger or Skrtel can be red carded to pave way for a ManU win ( "
"How can This man Howard Webb be deligated this match the man is a United fan and we have been on the wrong end of decisions from him consistanly the FA have really outdone themselves this time and i will watch his performance very closely."
"Oh perfect. The FA want us to lose, put a Man UTD fan on the pitch to make things controversual. I bet this will happen, Suarez gets a red card challenge on him in the box,
Webb: 'DISGUSTING DIVE!' Red card instantly to Suarez, 'HIS DIVING SPREE MAKES IT HARD FOR US REF's AS WE DONT KNOW!" He is an idiot. "
"The stats show up what everyone already knows, our weakness is getting it in the back of the net.Suarez shoots much more but his accuracy is poor compared to Van Persie. I get so frustrated at the buying and selling at this club. We should have bought Sturridge AND Ba. Then we would really be a team to fear again. "
"Van Persie fails, Webb is the threat. Referee and Silly Fergie will make their tactics. And, the whole 'Rooney injured thing?' He wants BRENDAN to make his tactics as if Rooney was off, just for Van litterman Persie, and he will just come on and we will fall then. Mind games, say Gerrard and Suarez died in a car crash, lol. That is how sick Man UTD are."
""Webb is a fair referee - just need to give him no chance to book anyone or indeed the chance to send someone of. Respect his decisions, he wont change them after making them so why get booked for protesting. This approach would frustrate 'Fergy' and his on pitch ally. YNWA""
"That's exactly it. It's the conversion rate that shows the difference. Our defenders are pretty good and they're up in the top rankings. We have plenty of people to set up too, but not enough to finish. Hopefully our new Danny boy can help and Borini CAN hit form."
"I am absolutely convinced that we're just missing our forwards. The stats are an unfair reflection because the defenders definitely need work on composure and structure, but we aren't far away from being challengers. A fraction in standard means 5 places in the premiership table!"
"One more thing - Players usually need time, especially if the whole team is under the same pressure. A LOT of time. If I've ever played for a different local side, you have to adjust to new people and learn new ways of playing. It's no different."
"Goals for alw+ays count more than goals against. Which is why brazils old maxim of scoring one more than the opposition is a good one! However im not really concerned about manure as a team.... we can overcome them..im more worried about the ref and other factors and playing against a stacked deck"
"redcard69...princess fergie had that same anger towards us 20 years ago and look what he has achieved. I hope BR has that same hunger and drive to beat the e out of manure and break their hold on the epl."
"AGAINST MU OUR DEFENCE HAS TO BE SUPER SOLID,WITH SUAREZ AND STURRIDGE WE WILL HAVE GOALS BUT WE MUST STOP MU FROM SCORING. SO LFC DEFENCE AND PEPE HAS TO BE ON THEIR TOES AT ALL TIME.COME ON LFC YOU CAN DO IT.
"
"As usual...So,Pink Nose revealed his line up for Sunday's game-he put H.Webb in the middle of the park.That was happened in the past few times and-we lost or granted with red cards or penalty,whatever.manures and Pink whiskey Nose are DISGRACE of PL in last 3-4 years with all their affairs.Cntd..."
"So,it won't be surprise if we would see FA power in action on Sunday.I changed my mind about EPL in recent years,cause of FA and manures cooperation.They are on top in terms of awarded penalties,allowed goals from oides and red cards to opossite sides.But,I believe in LFC.Draw would be enough in present situation.YNWA>"
"YNWAforever:Is that right?!OMG!Obviously i knew they were getting on with the FA especially the way they won the FA cup and the league 98-99 season(i lost a telly by throwing it out my window when they won the cl for the treble)Now your saying they top the stats in awarded pens, oides goals and reds to opposing teams. ARRGGHH i feel so sick i wont be able to eat dinner!!!"
