2-0 would be more apt seeing as Man Utd have had far more possesion wihout creating that many brilliant chances but Liverpool have created nothing since Torres is getting no support at all.
Hey? We didn't have many chances, what game were you watching? Rooney had two where he was through in the first half, then the one where VDS played him through in the second half, then Ronaldo had 2 in the second half, then Tevez had one. These are all one-on-ones, Anderson had some shots from outside the box as well. Reina was at fault for the 1st two goals, but he made some good saves.
Anyway, woohooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Get in there!!!!!!!!! Quality result, a great performance and a brilliant atmosphere. It gets no better than beating the vermin, especially so comfortably.
We just shaded it in the first half, what is it about defenders scoring for us against the vermin, Rio twice, O'shea last season and Wes Brown today, if he is leaving us, thats a damn good present. Now onto the sending off, Andy Gray showed today if we didn't already know that he's massively ABU and perhaps pro-vermin, even though he played for everton. How he defended saint mascherano was unbelievable. It showed on motd 2 how much he pestered the ref during the 1st half and was actually quite aggressive with some of it, he was lucky not to be sent off before that. How thick is he, to do that after the week we've had with the Cole situation. Incidentally, Torres could have been sent off for a second booking in the second half, and I think would have been if Bennet had not already have sent Mascherano off. Funny how Gray didn't see that one? I criticised Redknapp the other day, but well done him for putting his vermin past to one side and using common sense and shutting the ABU muppet Gray up.
There was a nervous 15 minutes in the second half up to about 5 minutes before we scored our 2nd goal. The atmosphere went dead for a few minutes, and the scousers sensed something they might get a point and they started singing a little, it was one of the few times they did sing. They were quickly shut up though.
After the Ronaldo goal went in, until about 5 minutes after the Nani goal went in, everyone was standing up and it showed that safe standing should be allowed. It was brilliant, the atmosphere was fantastic. Everyone was singing Viva Ronaldo, We'll never die and we shall not be moved. Absolute quality atmosphere, the stretford end shat all over the 'amazing' kop, my voice is still hoarse now.
After that, any result in the Chelski Arsenal game would have had its positives for us. A draw would have been better but now we're 5 points clear and looking very strong. Arsenal look quite a way off now, they'll have to win at Old Trafford for them to stand any chance.
Remember a while ago, we were discussing Wenger's arrogance, he really didn't do himself any favours this morning by saying he thinks they'll win the league. Meanwhile, for those who've had a go at Fergie for being arrogant:

If Fergie had said what Wenger said, he would have been chastised. If Wenger had said what Fergie said, it would have been that gracious Frenchman Wenger.
