Never smoked in my life mate and your expert character dissection of me is really just the total opposite of everything about me and if you cant see that I was kidding about the 1876 thing you must be an retard or something, why do you think I chose a date so long ago? To exaggerate, though you being scouse probably don’t know what such a long word means.
Here are my facts:
Liverpool committed 26 fouls in the game and got 4 yellows, Chelsea made only 16 and got 3 yellows and a red, hardly proportionate is it?
Gerrard deliberately kicked the ball into Bosingwa who was lying on the floor and didn’t get cautioned (whereas Delap got sent off for the exact same thing the day before)
Liverpool didn’t have a proper good chance before Lampard got sent off, all of the shots were either blocked, deflected away, straight at Cech or right at the bas**d.
Frank Lampard was sent off when it was Alonso who booted him (And commendably he went off without arguing to the ref)
Liverpool’s players, coaching staff and manager were blinding and swearing at the ref whenever Chelsea got a decision their way even though Liverpool were the team clearly favored by the referee
The actual fouls Liverpool committed were ones which Manchester United players ALWAYS get booked for, believe me, I’ve seen most of them.

Manchester United get the worst possible refereeing decisions and still no-one sees them and inly sees it when decisions go United way! Here are some recent exmples: Ronaldo not given a clear penalty at home to Middelsborough after being choke-slamed by Pogatetz.
Ronaldo having a good goal disallowed at away to Tottenham (which subsequently ended (0-0)
Ronaldo being barged over in the box by Carvalho and then being given a yellow card for being fouled
A good goal being disallowed against Chelsea after an excellent training ground corner
An goal.
United not given a clear a second day penalty against Everton
A good goal given offside by once again useless fourth officials for Ronaldo against Chelsea.
These are only the ones I can actually remember from the last couple of months and they all happened in United’s clean sheet record run so We CAN win games with the ref sporting the opposition colours (like against Chelsea) whereas Liverpool needed the ref on their side to beat the sorry Blues.

1876? You clown, LFC was established 1892. And with everyone just making nice, constructive comments, with stats backing them up, why are you telling people to stick them? No one is directly ripping into Man Utd players, just expressing a bit of confidence in their own team. Seems all you’ve got to turn to is undeserved trash talk and crap nicknames like “El Poncyo”. Seriously…what the hell is that? It only makes you look like an uneducated fool that probably spent most of his school days smoking and attacking kids who are now investment bankers and drive Audis, so keep going if you want, but you’re puttin the shits up everyone.

When was the last time Liverpool won at OT? 1876 probably. And “El Poncyo” has NEVER scored against us so you can stick your comment about him

cant wait to get ripped into you at old trafford with 11 men this time, El nino has now scored against Chelsea four times, Arsenal once and Everton 3 times. He is a big game pplayer and if he gets just one chance at OT he will show you

Really, if everyone just calms down and looks at the stats, or if people making comments actually watched the game, you’ll se that chelsea just wern’t good enough. Yes there was a red card, i’m a liverpool fan and i didn’t think it was a red offense, but, it happened. Deal with it. I’m not gonna talk up liverpool’s title hopes, but just appreciate the fact that there is a title challenge on. Like Bobmagee said, he’d rather liverpool than none at all. ITs good for the game. As for Chelsea, Scolari is a bad choice for English football in my opinion. Too attack minded in a defensive league. Chelsea don’t have a strong enough defense, not due to a line up issue, but down to tactics.

Why can’t people realise that LFC are a genuine threat now. At the start of the season it took getting used to, but we’re consistently there now, and the closest to Man Utd, we even beat the at Anfield. The glory days are returning, perhaps not this year (although i do hope so!!) but soon. So stop saying Liverpool are pretenders, what more do they have to do!!?

Of course Liverpool played better than Chelsea, hell, I could probably have scored against them, What annoys me is that Benitez goes on about United getting all the decisions etc, when his side do the exact same things and even he started shouting at the ref during the game, so why should he be able to criticize other managers for things he already does? thats what I hate, and at the same time we are getting ridiculous decisions against us and no-one says a word, though if we got a decision everyone jumps on the “United wins things so they must be cheating band wagon”
In the end it will come down to the two teams in red in the title race, but then again I’d rather Liverpool challenged us than no-one

And stop relying on the past for arguments like Man U vs Liverpool. A few years back we couldn’t even get close to beating chelsea in the prem and now we won both games

Bobmagee stop going in circles with what you say. It’s so anoying to listen to you saying it was the referees fault. Liverpool dominated the game even before the sending off. Chelseas first shot on goal came 15min after the sending off. And Liverpool (jst in the first half) made Cech save 3 really good shots. Just look at the STATS!! Stop being so stubborn and accept the fact Liverpool was by far the better team.
