Also, wtf was Hodgson thinking by removing meireiles. The guy was the engine of your team and you go and take him off. I think after the 2-2, you cannot do that to your team. He basically removed all momentum from the team when he did that.
Edit: Oh and Nani should be suspended for diving left and right like eduardo was before. Nani is truly a shitbag for attempting to deceive the referee specially when Liverpool were attacking and the ref stopped the game. That shouldn't happen. When Man U see an injured player, they NEVER stop playing and the refs let them play.
Although Liverpool didn't deserve the win in the first half, they showed courage in the second half and could have won the game but poor tactical switches from the manager cost them
I think a case can be made for the yellow since Torres might not have been clean through if he wasn't tripped as VDS came out very quickly to collect. If VDS wasn't so close to the ball already then it would've been an obvious red.
The service to Torres today was very poor. Maxi was invisible and Joe Cole made one good pass the entire game which resulted in the penalty. When N'gog was brought on to stop United from gangmarking Torres, N'gog couldn't keep possession, provided no presence in the box, and failed to link up with anyone except darren fletcher. The two goalscoring chances Torres made showed just how vulnerable United's backline is without Rio. Evans was once again the weak link similar to in the Everton match. O'Shea is the permanent weak link.
Nani does need to cut out the diving, it was unbearable to watch at times. I don't know what you mean by Utd never stopping play when someone on the pitch gets injured. Every top flight team has at least that much sportsmanship. The only time a Liverpool player went down today Liverpool had the ball themselves and couldn't decide whether to kick it out or not.
Berbs finally scored two striker goals, with one of his usual type sandwiched in between. Hope he can keep going.
He was very wasteful last season but even when he didn't score Berbatov would still pull off some fancy flicks and touches that link up play. Pile of shit would the equivalent of like David Bellion.
The 2nd goal from Berbatov is just phenomenal. I like player like him, great first touch, great composure and technique, but he lacks the strenght. Its hard to say he is worth his price or not cos player like him always got overpriced. Thats just the way it is. Hope that he will continue on with his current form!

He's a Japanese playing in Germany's Bundesliga and is one of the best and most consistent players atm.
Dortmund as a whole is worth following if you want to see talents! They also play quite entertaining aswell.
Subotic, Hummels, Sahin, Schmelzer, Großkreutz, Kagawa, Sven Bender and my personal favourite: Götze. All of them are really promising, the first 3 I mentioned are already known as exceptional talents, though.
