Utterly irredeemably shite half from United. Lucky not to be down.

Only bright side is we can't possibly be that bad in the second half. Right?

Allen, Suarez and Sterling have been mostly excellent for Liverpool. Can't say the same about anyone from United.

United has been dominated so far. Unfortunately ref sent Jonjo off when they should both be out. His tackle was exactly the same as Evans's.

Actually, looking at that gif, Evans' tackle was bad as well, I think he may be lucky to not have received punishment for that.

The tackles weren't the same, for one, Evans is on the ground and Shelvey is flying through the sky like a superhero. Evans second leg is trailing behind too.

Not to mention the scissors action.

Nailed on. I'm not disputing Shelvey going off but Evans should be off too. Maybe Shelvey should have rolled around like an utter JT as well.

Wow it would be nice if the ball stopped falling to a Liverpool player everytime the ball gets deflected/miskicked and why are De Gea, Cleverley and Scholes only on the bench?

Oh and the injuries:
Rooney
Vidic
Young
Smalling
Jones

Really like it when Allen makes forward runs. Wish Lucas wasn't injured so Allen wouldn't have to play so deep.

If our future signings are of the intelligence and caliber of Joe Allen with potential to improve I can see us doing well in the near future.

This team is going to be soooooooo shitty when SAF retires, it's going to be unreal.

Terrible refereeing, either double red cards or double yellow. Evans jumped in with his two feet together, Jonjo jumped in with his right foot and then his left foot scissored in later on.

That decision doesn't make any sense and has spoiled the rest of the game now.

Bulllshit. They're both dangerous challenges. If Jonjo hadn't dived in and it was Evans' challenge that came first it'd be a straight red 100% of the time. Should be 10 each.
