I prefer Liverpool's football to United's but today there was no match.
I hope Skrtel gets a ban for that assault on De Gea.

I do feel sorry for the guy. It was a stupid thing to do, but his last match versus Manchester United as a life-long Liverpool fan, this match was huge for him. And to be dismissed after coming on for such a short time only.

Really?! How can anyone feel sorry for Stevie "Me" Gerrard. I am sick of hearing about him, our media are obsessed with him.
He was a superb player in his day but he's past it and he's let Liverpool down TWICE in 2 seasons now. Firstly by slipping and allowing City to win title, second by being an idiot and getting sent off to allow Man Utd to win and probably get the last CL place.
The bloke thinks he's bigger than the club and Brent Rodgers is terrified of him.
How the hell has he let Liverpool down twice in two seasons? The slip was a mistake. An accident. End of. Never felt let down by him for that and anybody who feels let down by him for that or actually thinks that is an idiot. Yesterday is fair enough as he was an idiot for doing it but the slip was just losing his footing. Lead to a goal but shit happens. Hardly allowed City to win the title. There's 37 other games. Throwing a 3 nil lead away v Palace was 10 times worse than a bloody slip when there was plenty of time left in the game. You don't half talk shit at times.
I feel bad for him too, but you also get an insight to 'the man' from his 'apology' after the match.
How many other players would have sought out the media after spending 38 seconds on the pitch? And then his apology - says sorry to the fans, says he should know better, than says he just reacted to the studs up challenge.
So big man Stevie has now justified it to himself, and presumably most LFC fans.
Pro-tip: If you're going to apologise for stamping on an ankle, the key really is to apologise to the person whose bone you could have broken.
It's like the apology that reads: I'm sorry you were offended by comments. It's not an apology.
Yes he said "I apologise" in the post match interview I think.
Anyway I agree with Beachryan - it was disgusting what him and Skrtel did and NO apology to either Herrera or De Gea from either player.
There's always a drama with Liverpool. Suarez being a racist idiot, King Kenny then getting out the 'Support Suarez' t-shirts, then him biting people, now stamps.
From a club that likes to think of itself as 'classy' as well.
It's cool, Skrtel's denying the stamp so he can't exactly apologise.
Obviously didn't mean it. Course not.
Calm down angry man. No need for the abusive post.
Not angry at all but you were talking absolute crap.
It was hardly an abusive post either.
I'm sorry, but you're an idiot.
No Liverpool fans have defended Gerrard for the idiotic stamp, everyone i've spoken to is pissed off about it because we were still in the game at that point and needed a change in the midfield that he was hopefully going to offer.
Therein lies the difference between Liverpool and Chelsea fans. Gerrard stamped, got sent off, Liverpool fans openly criticised him for being stupid and potentially costing us a great chance of getting into the top 4. A Chelsea player stamps and Chelsea fans defend it claiming there's a campaign against them.
Ignore Steak Bake, sorry Fray Bentos. He's fishing for a fight, constantly.
Anyone reckons that Rodgers will get the t-shirts out next for Skrtel? Like King Kenny did with Suarez?
